Arkane Lyon, the studio behind Dishonored and Deathloop, is working on a third-person Blade game with Marvel, but it sounds like we won’t be playing it for some time to come.
The news was announced at The Game Awards, and Arkane’s Dinga Bakaba took to the stage to speak briefly about the game, calling it an “immersive, third-person” title, hinting that it’ll build on the immersive sim lineage that Arkane is known for with some new twists. Bakaba also said “sit back, let us cook,” which I’m taking to mean that we shouldn’t expect to see much more of Blade for some time to come.
Blade joins several otherupcoming Marvel gamesin early development, includingMarvel’s Wolverinefrom Spider-Man studioInsomniac, a World War 2 game featuring Captain America and Black Panther from Uncharted veteran Amy Hennig, plus Black Panther title and an Iron Man game from EA. Even if details on many of these games are thin right now, it seems we can still count on Marvel’s insistence on getting its name up front on every video game it’s liscensed.
