Marvel fans have been waiting ages for news about the Blade video game that developers announced back in 2023. Arkane Lyon grabbed the project after making hits like Dishonored and Deathloop for gamers worldwide. The French studio plans to use their Void Engine technology instead of jumping on the Unreal Engine 5 bandwagon like everyone else. Most big gaming companies have switched to Epic Games software but Arkane sticks with their homemade tech. The team wants to keep control over how their games look and feel.

A sharp-eyed fan named Timur222 dug through boring financial documents and found the real scoop about development progress. Arkane Lyon wrote that their AAA game project started full production at the end of 2024 after finishing prototype work. The studio only has one major game in the works right now and that has to be Blade. Microsoft shut down the Austin branch last year which left Lyon as the sole Arkane studio standing. The French team gets to focus all their energy on making Blade awesome.

Game experts think Blade will hit stores sometime between 2026 and 2027 based on typical development schedules. Most triple-A games take several years to finish and Deathloop came out back in September 2021. The later part of that window seems more realistic given how long these massive projects usually take. Fans will have to wait a bit longer for any official news or gameplay footage from the developers.
