, by Thibaut
This week, Saber Interactive officially announced a AAA video game based on the John Wick franchise. The project has been announced for PS5, Xbox Series, and PC, with a release date yet to be confirmed.
On its blog, the studio provided more details about this highly anticipated title. Among the information shared by Saber, we learn that Chad Stahelski, the director of the four films, is involved in the game, as is actor Keanu Reeves. This should reassure fans.
"We are working closely with Chad Stahelski (director of John Wick and visionary of the franchise), Keanu Reeves, and Lionsgate to produce an intense, adrenaline-fueled experience that fits perfectly into the John Wick universe. This game takes place during a specific period in the John Wick timeline and contributes to the rich and expansive universe of the franchise.
"John Wick is one of the most iconic characters in action film history. Saber is honored to be working alongside Chad, Keanu and the Lionsgate team in a true collaboration to bring the world of Wick to life in a AAA game. Created in collaboration between Saber, Lionsgate, and Stahelski, the new “Untitled John Wick Game” video game will feature an original gameplay narrative set in the John Wick timeline years before the Impossible Task. It will expand on the franchise’s lore during that time with familiar characters fans already know and love, as well as compelling new ones created specifically for this production.."
