  • Arkane is Making a Blade Game

    Arkane moves from one vampire slaying game to another.

    Arkane Lyon, alongside Marvel Games, announced that a new game based off of Blade is coming. Blade will be a third-person, single player title that is decidedly on the more mature side of the ratings scale.

    While the reveal was made at The Game Awards, there isn't much to go on here. Arkane Lyon has just started development on the game, so it's going to be a long while before it's ready to have more shown off. We do know that this game will feature an original story "with the studio's signature immersive gameplay and world-class narrative."

    Arkane Lyon is the Arkane studio location that is responsible for developing the Dishonored games and Deathloop.


    Marvel’s Blade game will take players to a quarantined section of Paris in the middle of a supernatural emergency. Vampires have emerged, terrorizing the city of lights and forcing Parisians to shelter inside their homes at night to wait for sunrise. 

    “From his trench coat to his iconic sunglasses, Blade is a slick, stylish, and driven character,” said Sebastien Mitton, Co-Creative and Art Director, Arkane Lyon. “This project is the perfect opportunity to push Arkane’s art style into an even more modern and bold territory. The essence of our work lives at the junction of impactful ideas and innovative know-how.”​

    by Shawn Zipay
    Fans have believed this to be the case for a long time now.

    For the longest time now, fans of Arkane Studios have believed that Deathloop takes place in the same universe as the Dishonored titles. Besides sharing some of that familiar Arkane gameplay style, the two feature a number of similarities. These range from certain environmental design elements to the fact that both games share some similar usable abilities like Shift and Blink, among others. A weapon in Deathloop, named the...

    Deathloop Gameplay Reveal
    by Shawn Zipay
    First look since E3 2019.

    It's been almost one year to the date that we first got a look at Arkane's Deathloop. It was first revealed back at E3 2019 though very little was revealed about the title. We knew that time kept cycling and it seemed like a 1v1 sort of game, but that was about it.

    Today, we got a much longer look at the game courtesy of the PlayStation "Future of Gaming" event. Look for Deathloop to drop this Holiday season. Rumor has it that Deathloop...

    by Shawn Zipay
    A complete list of all of the winners from TGAs.

    The Game Awards 2021 were held this past Thursday. If you missed some or all of it, I can't blame you. The show, including pre-show, came near the four-hour mark. It featured a bunch of new trailers for games, TV shows, and movies. It included some musical performances that I largely zoned out on while they were going on. It also featured some awards here and there.

    It also featured a lot of Geoff Keighley. One of the first...
