The game’s 10-12 hour “compelling” campaign would have been set in New Zurich in the year 2065 with the player being the city’s sole Blade Runner.  Dubbed Blade Runner: Time to Live, the game was set to be a “character focused, cinematic, action adventure” that attempted to combine “the philosophical themes of Blade Runner with kinetic action-adventure gameplay”. Pre-production on the game is said to have started last year in September 2024 with a plan to start prototyping this month. However, the game was reportedly scrapped by the IP’s rights holder Alcon Entertainment, a company that has been particularly finicky with the franchise.  “Journey from the teeming undercity of New Zurich 2065 to the eerie remnants of the forgotten world beyond,” reads an alleged synopsis for the game. “Under orders to retire Rev, the mysterious and ruthless leader of an underground replicant network, you are betrayed and left for dead in a brutally hostile environment.” Blade Runner: Time to Live was described as a fairly expensive project for the studio. According to the report, the game’s budget was upwards of $45 million for development with an additional $9 million for acting talent, likely involving some B-List celebrities.  While the exciting title may be cancelled, the studio is still working on other games in its narrative adventure formula. Directive 8020 is a brand-new sci-fi horror tale in development by the studio starring No Time To Die’s Lashana Lynch.  Until Dawn Platform(s): PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 Genre(s): Action, Adventure, Survival Horror 8 VideoGamer Related Topics Blade Runner Subscribe to our newsletters!
