Arkane Lyon is developing Blade, a game based on Marvel's anti-hero of the same name.
Marvel’s Dinga Bakaba and Bill Roseman unveiled the game during The Game Awards last night. The game will take place in a part of Paris that is under quarantine during a supernatural emergency. Vampires have appeared on the scene and it is up to Blade to keep the residents of Paris safe.
According to Rosemann, the game is partly being developed to celebrate Blade’s fiftieth anniversary year. Arkane’s Bakaba says it was a dream of his to be able to work on the Blade franchise.
Arkane is known for its immersive games, such as Prey, Deathloop and Dishonored.
It is not yet known when and on which systems Blade will appear, although it is likely that this will include at least PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S and PC.
