Finally, after a six-month coronavirus-enforced delay, The Walking Dead: World Beyond is here - introducing us to the first generation of young adults to come-of-age during the zombie apocalypse, and the subsequent difficulties of growing up in a world that largely identifies as ‘Undead’. If your life currently feels empty without those smelly, flesh-hungry automatons clawing at your TV screen, read on as we detail how to watch The Walking Dead: World Beyond online from anywhere.

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Cheat Sheet

Cable viewers can watch episodes of The Walking Dead: World Beyond through AMC on Sundays at 10pm ET/PT, or 9pm CT (starting October 4). AMC Premiere subscribers can get early access to the series from October 1, but, if you’ve completely cut-the-cord, then Sling TV is a good alternative and offers a 3-day free trial.

The Walking Dead: World Beyond presents an extreme embodiment of that now omnipresent term ‘New Normal’. Set in a post-apocalyptic Nebraska, daily life offers a modicum of familiarity as children forge ahead with their studies at Campus Colony, despite virus-carrying corpses lurking at the periphery of society.

The series’ central protagonists are sisters Hope and Iris Bennett, 17-year old campus janitor Silas Plaskett, and student Elton Ortiz: four friends who embark on a journey beyond the safe school walls. Scream 4’s Nico Tortorella stars as Felix Carlucci, the campus’s head of security and a protector figure to the intrepid young students, while Julia Ormond takes on the more antagonistic role of Lt. Col Elizabeth Kublek.

The second Walking Dead spin-off after Fear the Walking Dead, World Beyond will only run for two seasons 10-episodes long; the reason being that showrunner Matthew Negrete and series creator Scott M. Gimple intend each season to function as “two very different feeling chapters of hopefully a very satisfying book.” The show certainly appears to offer interesting parallels with our contemporary moment, as people learn to live in a post-pandemic and climate crisis afflicted world.

So, fancy some post-apocalyptic drama crossed with heart-stopping zombie horror? Then read on as we detail how to watch The Walking Dead: World Beyond from anywhere.

Sling TV – Sling Blue and Sling Orange plans both include AMC, with each costing $30 a month. However, the Orange line-up has over 30 channels – privileging sports and family content – while Blue has 45, but consists of more entertainment and news networks. There are two promotions running currently: a 3 day free trial, and an initial $10 off Sling + Showtime, Starz, and Epix access for your first month. Sling TV is compatible with myriad devices too, including: iOS and Android devices, Apple TV, Roku, Xbox One, Fire TV, Oculus, and among many others.

Philo – AMC is available through Philo too, and is arguably better value than Sling. For $20 a month you receive access to 61 channels, including Comedy Central, A&E, and VH1, while being able to stream to three separate devices simultaneously, in addition to unlimited DVR. Signing up for their 7-day free trial is a breeze: simply enter your mobile number to get an initial three days access. After that, if you want to keep enjoying free TV, you’ll need to provide your payment details. Either cancel at the end of the 7 days, or do nothing and maintain your access at $20 a month.

FuboTV – If you’re looking for something more comprehensive – but yes, also more expensive – then fuboTV is definitely worth a look. Their entry-level plan comprises over 100 channels for $59.99 a month – after their week-long free trial. Also, possibly tempting The Walking Dead aficionados, they currently have all season 10 episodes of the original show available to stream.

Found yourself out of country when the AMC’s zombie apocalypse begins? Don’t worry. By downloading a VPN you’ll still be able to connect to an IPTV like Sling and stream The Walking Dead: World Beyond online, no matter where you are (although preferably from within a boarded up and well-stocked bunker).

Can I watch The Walking Dead: World Beyond online in Canada?

Alas, the adrenaline-pumping spin-off show won’t be coming to Canada anytime soon – probably not until it’s finished its initial run on AMC. With the last episode expected in early December, Canadians might find it shortly after on Netflix, alongside the previous nine seasons of The Walking Dead (CND$9.99 a month for their entry-level plan), or via Amazon Prime Video, where currently all five seasons of Fear the Walking Dead are available to stream (CND$7.99 per month, after the 30-day free trial).

Don’t despair however if you're an American in Toronto just as The Walking Dead: World Beyond drops new episodes. Simply download the best VPN and you can enjoy the show just as if you were at home.
