A new Blade Runner game, which will be the first major installment in the sci-fi series since Westwood’s beloved 1997 point-and-click adventure, is in development and could release as soon as 2025.
Tom Henderson, who has previously leaked specific information about Battlefield: 2042 and is also known to have leaked information about GTA 6 and the upcoming Modern Warfare 2, claims that UK developer 110 Industries has acquired a license to create a new game based on Blade Runner. . , and recently informed the staff of his new study in Vaud, Switzerland.
Ridley Scott, director of the original 1982 Blade Runner movie, has confirmed that a new Blade Runner 2099 TV series is in development with Amazon. If the franchise revives after the excellent, but financially underperforming, Blade Runner 2049, it’s entirely possible that a new video game is in the works. 110 Industries also seems appropriate for science fiction. The studio is currently developing three games: racing sim Red Goes Faster, mech shooter Vengeance Is Mine, and Hacky Wanted: Dead, all set in neon-drenched dystopian dystopias. Runner.
Along with these games, 110 has “nine other projects in the works” and aims to “develop future licenses” alongside these games, according to an internal memo released in 2021 after the Swiss studio was established. If recent rumors are true, the new Blade Runner game could very well be a part of the upcoming 110 lineup.
Speaking of those rumours, one of the latest leaks from Tom Henderson was of a proposed map for Call of Duty Warzone 2, which would feature classic map pieces from the original 2009 Modern Warfare 2, including Highrise. If you look very closely at the Modern Warfare 2 trailer, you’ll see a satellite image that appears to contain part of Highrise and also matches the surrounding areas on the leaked map Henderson created back in May. If the map matches Henderson’s original leaks, it could add even more credence to his information about the new Blade Runner game.
However, these rumors should be treated with skepticism for now, as many video game leaks are later revealed to be inaccurate or false. We have reached out to 110 Industries for comment and will keep you informed of any new information.
