Bloober Team and Skybound Entertainment Join Forces for a New Horror Game
Hey there, fellow gamers! We’ve got some exciting news for all you horror enthusiasts out there. Bloober Team, the talented studio behind the highly anticipated Silent Hill 2 remake, has teamed up with Skybound Entertainment to work on a new project. If you’re not familiar with Skybound, they’re the entertainment company founded by none other than Robert Kirkman, the brilliant mind behind The Walking Dead. So, you know this collaboration is going to be epic!
In a recent press release, Bloober Team announced that they are developing a game based on a licensed IP from Skybound. While the exact details of the project are still under wraps, we do know that it’s going to be a horror game. Now, you might be thinking it’s going to be another Walking Dead game, but hold your horses! There are other possibilities too, like the supernatural series Outcast or the medical horror Witch Doctor. The possibilities are endless, and the anticipation is killing us!
Bloober Team’s Second-Party Strategy
According to Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno, this project is part of their second-party strategy, where they collaborate with external partners to bring their horror expertise to the table. It’s not just about financial profit for them; it’s about taking the next steps in achieving their strategy by the end of 2027. Bloober Team and Skybound have known each other for a long time, so you can bet this cooperation is going to be a match made in gaming heaven.
Skybound’s Gaming Legacy
Now, Skybound isn’t new to the gaming scene. They have their own publishing division called Skybound Games, and they’ve made some impressive moves in the past. When Telltale Games went under in 2018, Skybound swooped in to rescue the last couple of episodes of The Walking Dead: The Final Season. They also lent their expertise to the remasters of the original Baldur’s Gate titles. So, rest assured, Skybound knows a thing or two about delivering top-notch gaming experiences.
Awaiting the Silent Hill 2 Remake
Before we wrap up, let’s talk about what’s currently keeping Bloober Team busy: the remake of the iconic PS2 classic, Silent Hill 2. We know you’re itching for more information, but unfortunately, we’ll have to wait for Konami to spill the beans. Fingers crossed that it lives up to the hype and doesn’t turn into a nightmare like Silent Hill: Ascension. We’ll just have to be patient and trust in the talented folks at Bloober Team to bring us an unforgettable horror experience.
So, fellow gamers, get ready to immerse yourselves in the chilling world of Bloober Team and Skybound Entertainment’s upcoming horror game. Whether it’s zombies, supernatural entities, or medical horrors, we can’t wait to see what they have in store for us. Keep an eye out for updates, and in the meantime, stay safe and game on!
