A new Blade Runner game, which would mark the first major outing for the sci-fi series since the beloved 1997 point-and-click adventure by Westwood, is rumoured to be in development and could release in 2025, according to a reputable industry leaker.Tom Henderson, who has previously produced accurate leaks on Battlefield: 2042, and is also known for leaking news on GTA 6 and the upcoming Modern Warfare 2, claims that British developer 110 Industries has acquired the license to create a new game based on Blade Runner, and recently announced the news to employees at its new studio in Vaud, Switzerland.
Ridley Scott, director of the original 1982 Blade Runner film, has confirmed that a new television series, Blade Runner 2099, is in development with Amazon. If the franchise is set to undergo a revival, following the superb but financially underperforming Blade Runner 2049, it seems possible that a new video game could be in the works. 110 Industries also seems like a suitable fit for the sci-fi licence. The studio currently has three games in development – racing sim Red Goes Faster, mech shooter Vengeance Is Mine, and the hack-and-slash Wanted: Dead – all of which take place in neon-soaked, grimy dystopias similar to the world of Blade Runner.
