Wii U Turn recently asked Bethesda and Arkane Studios if they had any plans to bring Dishonored to the Wii U. Their response was surprising, if not disappointing.
Marvel's Blade is being developed using Void Engine, suggested a new job listing by a Senior Lighting Artist working on the entry.
I wonder how many people who didn't buy Dishonored 2 or Deathloop are going to complain about Arkane making a Marvel game instead of working on an original IP.
I didn't buy either, but I still feel like the Arkane that built Dishonored is actually an amazing fit for Blade. Sadly I don't know if that Arkane exists anymore as over 70% of the staff including many veterans left their Austin studio cause they didn't want to make redfall and didn't like where things were headed. And Both Dishonored games were a collab effort from the two studios.
Now Lyon is apparently heading this game, not sure if they collaborating with Austin, and the last game they made alone was Death loop which, while mechanically great, had terrible AI and the loop was a poor excuse to turn a 5hr game into a 16hr game, which was really just the premise of the Prey DLC repurposed.
But we'll just have to wait and see, if they can still nail some buttery mechanics, but fill out their shortcomings in content and AI, I'll love the hell out of this game, I love blade as a character, from the comics to the films and cartoons he's badass and I always wanted a game to really pull it off.
Arkane Austin had nothing to do with Dishonored. They made Prey and Redfall. Arkane Austin losing staff has no effect on Lyon, which is the actual Arkane dev everyone knows.

You're wrong bro, Dishonored 2 was the first time they split up and did separate projects, but they both developed Dishonored 1. it's all right here bruv.

I brought death loop I loved it but it's done I don't want a sequel that would wreck it. I admit I didn't like the dishonored franchise though.
I also enjoyed the blade movies that nightclub scene was the most brutal thing I saw as a kid so it'll be great to see someone bring this to life in a game.
Also arkane are actually great at environmental storytelling. I casually played through death loop but didn't feel I missed much of the story which was largely told by picking up notes and diary entries this is actually a skill that many games try and fail. I feel as if the day Walker will probably benifit from that style of game
well im not expecting this to be a graphical power house, especially based of what little we know it looks like it going be very stylised.
Either way, please let this be good!!!!! Give us the Blade/Wesley snipes game we always wanted!!
im just glad a blade game is coming seeing as the movie reboot is in shambles atm.
the first blade movie to this day is still my favourite marvel movie
This game has potential to be dope as fk. I remember watching blade when I was younger and just mesmerized. Fantastic stuff
What a coincidence! It's also being developed for the console everyone is aVoiding.
I was hoping the game was going to look photo realistic like a UE5 game, however, it seems the visuals will likely look like Death Loop. The performance of this engine is significantly better than UE5 so hopefully the gameplay will be fun.
The artstyle of the characters look like many will be top heavy with little skinny legs and feet.
Others look like they may have the look of that avengers cartoon where they were short but had big hands and feet, let’s hope it’s not that, always hated that look.
I hope the game is dark and the vampires employ a blink teleport style similar to how you used one of your powers in Dishonored. Lots of gun action with silver stakes and holy water, crosses and hand to hand combat.
Pete Hines is retiring from Bethesda Softworks after 24 years.
Im glad he leaving. Bethesda has been terrible under his leadership. Redfall, Starfield, Fallout76 and the list goes on an on. His leadership style is outdated. Hopefully, MS bring someone in that knows what they are doing.
I will give you Fallout 76, but Redfall and Starfield's blame needs to fall somewhat on the terrible Xbox publishing team. With all their resources and supposed smarts...they fungled it.
@Mika He’s the communications guy - you can’t blame him for the quality of the product.
Maybe they can go to their earlier purchases for replacements . Like Rare devs , Gear devs or 343, one of the very few studios they built up and man they are great.
That could work ...if MS knew what they were doing themselves ...
But let's be real. Xbox was in charge of redfall and Starfield. They just don't know what a good game looks like.
I interviewed at Bethesda once, and while there were some very smart mid level team members, the upper ranks (EP/VP/Studio Head) were a total boys' club. The Madmen series ego in that lunch was stiffling.

Pete Hines was against locking out the majority of their console playerbase (ps gamers). Probably disgusted at the hypocrisy of white knight Phil assuring PS gamers that they can still play COD. Acquisition goes through, Hines goes out.
Goodbye Pete.
i wonder if he was asked to leave.
im pretty sure not everyone was on board with the acquisition.
Pretty much everyone outside of Todd has made snide comments against the acquisition but money talks
CD Projekt Red has recently been commended for turning around Cyberpunk 2077, so why can't Arkane fix Redfall?

I thought the solid game was better than Starfield in my opinion. It was a better western rpg
For me is more about console wars and gamer culture. As a gamer and Sony fan, I fell good when Xbox and Microsoft go bad. It's like wining the war. CDPR, even though they drop the ball with CP2077, is a fan favorite and good guys. I like and want to like them. If Microsoft is able to make Redfall right it doesn't matter to me, because I want to hate everything about them.
It may seem childish, but I made a lot a friends in Sony community sharing that common enemy. We love hate them. It brings us closer and makes us alike.
Lol atleast your open about it, lots of closet fanboys here that refuse to admit haha
Respect brother hahaha
the recent update is a step in the right direction. Its a very different game now and still has some improvements to be made in the next big update. Glad that Arkane did not give up on this and is doing what they can to salvage their reputation.
The quote is taken out of context. "Nothing planned at this time" leaves the possibility of a future transition to the Wii U.
Right now - nothing. But the Wii U is brand new. They might, you know, be working to fix some "small" PS3 issues before working on porting to a next-generation console.
Totally agree, the title makes the implications that the game will never be coming to the Wii U. It should have said "Dishonored not being planned for the Wii U at the moment".
*title changed to be more clear
maybe release it with DLC
Thats fine they have Bayonetta, they will be fine.
