Kenny is the tritagonist of Telltale's The Walking Dead video game series.
While he is known for taking action and showing initiative, his short temper and failure to think things through often get the better of him. However, Kenny is also shown to be kind and selfless as he has been willing to give his life to save someone else's, but can be emotionally unstable towards those who do him wrong, yet he is aware of this and has admitted to be frightened by it.
He was voiced by Gavin Hammon.

- (If Ben is alive) After Ben is impaled to a balcony rung ripped through his stomach, Kenny tried to yank him off the rung before hearing walkers approaching. Seeing it as the only way, Kenny pushed Lee out of the alley if he refused to leave, saying that it's something he's gotta do, and that he needed to find Clementine. He used his last bullet to put a dying Ben out of his misery.

Season Three[]

What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
In General[]
- Can be quite jerkish and insulting towards Lee and other group members at multiple occasions. For instance, he mocks Ben by joking that having him on lookout was like having a sign that says: "The men are gone, come and rape our women and children."
- Makes racist comments sometimes. Examples include calling Lee urban or calling Arvo a commie. One could argue the former was out of ignorance not hate, since he apologized afterwards. The latter however is blatant, and Kenny shows no remorse for his constant physical and verbal abuse of Arvo.
Season One[]
- Leaves Shawn to die on the farm, though he regrets it heavily for the rest of the season.
- Wants to leave Ben in the forest when they needed help.
- Wanted to forcefully take over the St. John's Dairy in case the St. John's themselves weren't all they appeared.
- Smashed Larry's head with a salt lick, believing that he was dead. While he was protecting the group and felt remorse for this, it was a hasty decision that caused a rift between him and Lilly.
- If Lee does not help kill Larry, Kenny will not save Lee from Danny St. John, and in the following episode, he will not save Lee from the walkers in the pharmacy.
- Steals from the Stranger's wagon. While this done was to feed the group, it indirectly led to the deaths of the Stranger's wife and daughter.
- He is willing to leave Lilly behind during the motel attack, although he and his family are saved by her minutes before.
- He attacks Lee when told to stop the train, although in his defense, Lee was insulting him (determinant).
- Is quick to suggest the killing of someone who may or may not turn, but refuses to acknowledge indisputable evidence that Duck would. Though understandable, it remains hypocritical.
- Wanted to kill Ben after he found out about his dealings with the bandits, who indirectly caused his family's death.
- Suggests killing Lee in the attic because of his bite wound.
