Blade Runner Franchise Owners in Talks Over Possible AAA Game

Comment Views: 0

Alcon Entertainment is in talks about a AAA Blade Runner game on the scale of Cyberpunk 2077, executive producer Andrew Kosove told IGN.

IGN spoke with Kosove and fellow executive producer Broderick Johnson ahead of the release of Blade Runner 2099. The two head Alcon Entertainment, which owns the rights to the franchise. The interviewer cited Cyberpunk 2077 and asked whether Alcon was in talks about a similarly large Blade Runner game.

“Yes,” Kosove replied, emphasizing that the discussions involved a AAA game. He said it was important to him that players could “interact” with the world of Blade Runner. He did not say who would develop the game or what genre it would be.

This is not the first attempt to create a major game based on the franchise. In 2023, Annapurna Interactive announced Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth, which was set to take place between the events of the two films. A year later, however, the entire development team left Annapurna, and the game’s Steam page was removed in February 2026. There has been no news about the project since, although its cancellation has not been officially announced.

The franchise’s best-known game remains Westwood Studios’ 1997 detective adventure, which was rereleased in 2022. Several VR projects have also been released, but none achieved particular success.

All eight episodes of Blade Runner 2099 will be released on Prime Video on November 25.
