Annapurna Interactive is developing a Blade Runner game

Annapurna Interactive has published plenty of excellent games since bursting onto the scene in 2016, but the company has not endeavoured into in-house development. That is finally changing, with Annapurna launching its new studio, Annapurna Games, and the first project is already lined up. 

Annapurna Games will get its start with Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth. This is an original game set in the Blade Runner universe, taking place between the original film and its sequel, Blade Runner 2049.

The game appears to be in early development, as the reveal trailer was purely cinematic. Hopefully we learn more about the game in 2024 as there are no further details at this time.

Annapurna Games was founded back in 2020 and began hiring senior developers for its first project in 2022. Depending on how ambitious the game is, we could be looking at a several year wait.

KitGuru Says: Annapurna Interactive has published some of my favourite indie games of the last few years. I'll be looking forward to seeing what they come up with in their first in-house project.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
