The post Arkane Lyon is making a Blade game and we're all very excited appeared first on Best News.
]]>This doesn’t have anything to do with Marvel’s upcoming Blade film, which has been in and out of development hell these past few years. It’s an original game set in Paris that adapts the comic book character. Arkane calls it a mature single-player adventure, so it's likely to feature more gore than other Marvel games because, well, that’s kind of Blade’s whole bag. As usual, Marvel Games is on board, as VP and creative director Bill Roseman took the stage at The Game Awards after the trailer reveal.
Marvel is fairly hands-on with its games nowadays, and recent titles like Spider-Man 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy had its stamp of approval. There’s no release date and no announced platforms for Blade, though the entire team at Arkane Lyon is currently “pouring so much love” into the game.

]]>This isn’t the first time Amazon has given gamers a holiday treat. Last year, it was Dishonored 2, another Arkane classic. The company also tends to give away games to coincide with its Prime Day events.
As for Deathloop, it’s a fantastic title that marries the harried frenzy of a first person shooter with the intrigue of an old-school adventure title like Myst. We compared it to an escape room in our official review, and that pretty much sums it up. You’re trapped on an island in a Groundhog Day-esque time loop and have to figure a way out. The game’s filled with thoughtful puzzles and the combat is satisfying, which is no surprise coming from the folks behind Dishonored.
In other words, this is one of the most unique and flat-out fun releases of the current generation. It’s a steal at full price, so free is a no-brainer. Deathloop is also available on Game Pass, if that’s your bag. Developer Arkane is currently busy working on a game based on Marvel’s resident vampire hunter, Blade.
