The Walking Dead season 11 part 3: Release date and time
The Walking Dead season 11 part 3 is scheduled to premiere in the United States on Sunday, October 2nd.
Per Fansided, the first episode from The Walking Dead season 11 part 3 will release on AMC and the AMC+ subscription platform at 9 PM ET.
In the UK, this means that the new episode will be aired in the early hours of Monday, October 3rd.
AMC notably recently released an extended synopsis for season 11 part 3 of The Walking Dead, “The television legacy that is The Walking Dead begins its highly anticipated last eight episodes this October.”
“On the heels of the oppressive presence of locusts, an even greater force is bearing down on every single member of each community. With Commonwealth flags raised at Hilltop, Alexandria, and Oceanside, there’s no time to strategize for those on the road. It’s a race against the clock to stay alive and extract those still living in the Commonwealth before Hornsby (Josh Hamilton) can execute his revenge.
Inside the Commonwealth, Connie’s (Lauren Ridloff) article has created more chaos than planned. By exposing the Milton’s (Laila Robbins) corruption, their hope to create a better, more equal, life for all may instead put everyone at risk. With the vast debt our group owes and no other viable place to live, simply leaving has never been an option. But if their next move fails, staying won’t be an option either. What they’re about to embark on will only invite more danger with massive consequences. The clock is ticking for our heroes inside the Commonwealth as well. As each group continues to get caught in uncontrollable situations, threats lurk around every corner, dead and alive.
The looming pressure is cresting towards a day of reckoning for all. Will the sum of their individual journeys cumulate into one, or divide them forever? The fight for a future continues to be exasperated by the ominous population of walkers. Not all will survive, but for some, the walking dead lives on.” – The Walking Dead season 11 part 3 extended synopsis, via UndeadWalking.
