Again in 2023, Arkane Studios introduced it was engaged on Blade, a brand new recreation based mostly on Marvel’s badass vampire hunter of the identical identify. Since then we’ve got heard nearly nothing in regards to the recreation or its projected launch date, main most to imagine it’s nonetheless years manner. And now we all know that’s nearly definitely true, due to Arkane’s newest monetary end result.

It was an X consumer by the identify of Timur222 that learn by the monetary reported and famous that “The manufacturing part of the AAA recreation venture was launched on the finish of 2024, following prototype validation.”

Now, the monetary doc in query doesn’t particularly point out Blade, so there’s a probability it’s one thing else. Maybe Dishonored 3? However the chances are it’s Blade, as that’s at present the one recreation formally introduced by Arkane to be in growth. Deathloop 2 may be a chance, I suppose.

No matter it’s, if it’s solely simply entered manufacturing, it’s possible no less than a couple of years away. In different phrases, we’re in all probability late 2026, early 2027 on the very least, however it’s much more prone to be 2028 onwards.

Whether it is Blade, then it’s yet one more case of a developer/writer saying initiatives too early.
