Arkane's Blade game is "a single-player immersive sim hybrid with all the s*** we love"

The game director on Marvel's Blade can scarcely believe the new game is actually g⛦etting made, even if it is exactly the kind of mish-mash that Arkane excel🦹s at. 

Yesterday, December 7, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Arkane unveiled Marvel's Blade at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Game Awards 2023, billed as a "iꦑmmersive, third-person" action game. Now, game director and Arkane Lyon studio director Dinga Bakaba has put out the two t🎐weets below, writing "somehow this fever dream fucking happens?! This is surreal"

Bakaba is astounded that Arkane's "Blade game, in 3rd person, in our own crazy version of Paris" is somehow happening. "I've never been so excited for a project and I'm not crying you're cry♕ing!" Bakaba writes. Bakaba's excitement is almost infectious at this point.

I'd wager Dishonored and Deathloop fans will also perk up their ears at word of this Blade game being "a "single-player immersive 💙sim hybrid with all the shit we love." Especially after Redfall, I know that's music to my ears. 

However, the developers at Arkane Lyon are going radio silent for a little while after this announcement. Bakaba jꦐokes (I hope) that someone's going to put himself and Arkaꦏne Lyon art director Sebastein Mitton in a box to quiet them down soon, before adding that the team is "really fucking killing it."

If you're looking for any further details or reveals about Arkane Lyon's new game, you're sadly out of luck for a good while. Bakaba's tweets make it clear that the studio is going quiet to cook for a long time now, and the project is pretty clearly in the early stages of development. Deathloop, the studio's previous game, is just a little over two years old, so it stands to reason that we're at least that far away from Blade.

Marvel's Blade is just the latest of several 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming Marvel games we've got to look forward to, including 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel's Wolverine in development at Insomniac Games, and a World War Two-era game featu🍬ring Captain America and Black Panther from Uncharted veteran Amy Hennig.
