A Blade Runner<\/em> video game, titled Time to Live<\/em>, was previously in development but was never officially announced, and it appears that the project is no longer in the works. Only a few details remain about what could have been.<\/p>\n

According to Insider Gaming<\/a>, the game was being developed by Supermassive Games, the studio behind Until Dawn<\/em>. The game was reportedly a character-driven action-adventure title where players would take on the role of So-Lange, the last remaining Blade Runner in 2065, who has outlived their typical lifespan.<\/p>\n

Pre-production is said to have begun in late 2024, with several team members from The Quarry<\/em> (2023) involved. If the game had proceeded to full production, it was planned for release in fall 2027 on PC and current and next-generation consoles. Documents obtained by the outlet describe gameplay as a mix of stealth, action, exploration, and investigation, similar to Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> or the Deus Ex<\/em> series.<\/p>\n

What apparently led to the game’s demise was Alcon Entertainment, the owner of the Blade Runner<\/em> IP, which canceled the project late last year without providing a specific reason. When asked, Supermassive Games stated that it was “unable to comment.” After reaching out to both Supermassive and Alcon, the latter acknowledged discussions of a Blade Runner<\/em> project in the past year that “did not proceed for business reasons.”<\/p>\n

To date, there have been three Blade Runner<\/em> video games. The first, released in 1985, was a shoot-em-up loosely based on the film, while the 1997 title was a point-and-click adventure game. More recently, in 2018, Seismic Games released Revelations<\/em>, a VR title. A few years ago, Annapurna Interactive announced it was developing Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth<\/em>, its first in-house game, but the project’s status remains uncertain following the developer’s internal collapse in late 2024.<\/p>\n

Regardless of the existence of Time to Live<\/em>, the Blade Runner<\/em> franchise has been expanding over the past few years. In addition to the games, Prime Video is producing an upcoming TV series starring Michelle Yeoh and Hunter Schafer.<\/p>\n
