AMC has announced an air date for The Walking Dead season 10 finale. The episode was set to premiere as part of season 10's regularly scheduled airing, but due to the restrictions placed on production as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, work on the season 10 finale couldn't be completed in time. Instead, The Walking Dead season 10 ended its run with episode 15, "The Tower", while plans were made for the true finale, episode 16, "A Certain Doom", to air later in the year.

Though it wasn't the original plan, "The Tower" proved to be an exciting cliffhanger for The Walking Dead season 10 to leave off on. It finds the survivors holed up in an abandoned hospital as they prepare for a fight with Beta and The Whisperer horde. A few characters remain elsewhere, like the group Eugene is leading to meet Stephanie (the woman on the radio), and that means there are less people on hand to fend off the imminent attack. Luckily, Maggie is expected to make her return in The Walking Dead season 10 finale, so there is some help on the way. What remains to be seen is if Maggie and her mysterious allies will arrive in time to help Daryl, Carol, and all the survivors live through the final battle in the Whisperer War.

During The Walking Dead's virtual panel for Comic-Con@Home, it was announced the season 10 finale will air October 4, immediately followed by the premiere of the new Walking Dead spinoff, World Beyond.
