Made for mature audiences and revealed during Sony’s State of Play Showcase

SANTA MONICA, Calif. and FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.  Feb. 12, 2026 – Yeah. We’re thinking he’s back. Today at the Sony State of Play Showcase, global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LION) and best-selling video game publisher and developer Saber Interactive announced a new AAA video game based on Lionsgate’s billion-dollar John Wick franchise. Tailored for mature audiences and currently in development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, the new single-player third-person action game will combine John Wick’s unparalleled, adrenaline-fueled “gun-fu” fighting style with Saber’s proven reputation for creating thrilling gaming experiences that leave players craving more. John Wick franchise director Chad Stahelski and star Keanu Reeves are both involved in the game’s production, with Reeves signed on to reprise his iconic character’s look, voice and more.



Watch the brand-new reveal trailer for the “Untitled John Wick Game” now and get ready to feel the hard-hitting, cinematic action of John Wick like never before.

“I can’t wait for fans to step into the shoes of John Wick and explore the multi-dimensional world of The High Table,” stated Jenefer Brown, President of Global Products & Experiences at Lionsgate. “We are collaborating closely with Saber’s dedicated team to develop a game that captures the unparalleled action, brand-defining fight choreography, immersive world-building, and authenticity of the films.”


John Wick is one of the most iconic characters in action film history. Saber is honored to be working alongside Chad, Keanu and the Lionsgate team in a true collaboration to bring the world of Wick to life in a AAA game,” said Matthew Karch, CEO at Saber Interactive.

Management is here to serve. Created in collaboration between Saber, Lionsgate, and Stahelski, the new “Untitled John Wick Game” video game will feature an original gameplay narrative set in the John Wick timeline years before the Impossible Task. It will expand on the franchise’s lore during that time with familiar characters fans already know and love, as well as compelling new ones created specifically for this production.


Saber’s authentic design will deliver on the signature style and unique elements fans expect from a John Wick mission, including a hard-hitting gun-fu combat system, jaw-dropping camerawork, intense driving experiences, cinematic storytelling, and a bold range of atmospherically immersive environments, all crafted to make players feel like they are in a John Wick movie, playing the role of the Baba Yaga himself.


This is the ultimate John Wick gaming experience that fans have been waiting for.

The John Wick franchise is acclaimed by fans and critics alike for its gritty yet elegant fantasy of firearms and fistfights. In addition to four hit films, which have generated more than $1 billion worldwide, the John Wick universe includes the television series The Continental, one of Peacock’s biggest original launches of 2023, and the spinoff film Ballerina, starring Ana de Armas. A new film starring Donnie Yen as Caine and another film following the events of John Wick: Chapter 4 are also in development.



Saber Interactive is best known as the developer of 2024’s blockbuster Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, a viscerally brutal spectacle of hack-and-slash action and carnage that sold over seven million units in its first year and earned nominations for Best Action Game and Best Multiplayer at The Game Awards. A sequel, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 3, is already in development. The studio has a long history producing high-quality experiences based on fan-favorite IPs, including World War Z, enjoyed by over 30 million players worldwide, as well as the upcoming Jurassic Park: SurvivalJohn Carpenter's Toxic Commando, and Turok: Origins.

The “Untitled John Wick Game” will be available to wishlist on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. For the latest news and updates from the game, visit

Once Human: The Post-Apocalyptic Survival Game + The First 30 Gameplay!


In the vast landscape of survival games, “Once Human” stands out as a compelling blend of open-world exploration, intense combat, and intricate crafting. Developed by Starry Studio, this multiplayer game thrusts players into a post-apocalyptic world where humanity is on the brink of extinction due to an alien contamination known as Stardust. That could've been the perfect name for a tag team partner to have alongside WWE's Goldust.

Survival at Its Core

“Once Human” challenges players to navigate a world teeming with monstrous enemies and scarce resources. As a Meta-Human, players possess unique abilities to combat the Stardust infection and survive the harsh environment. The game emphasizes cooperation, allowing players to unite with friends to build territories, fight off threats, and uncover the secrets behind the apocalypse. Squad up!


Crafting and Customization

One of the game’s standout features is its deep crafting system. Building a sanctuary is equally detailed, offering players the freedom to design and relocate their bases as needed. You will need to become skilled with crafting for a successful adventure.

Engaging Storyline

Beyond survival, “Once Human” offers a rich narrative that delves into the origins of Stardust and its impact on the world. Players will encounter various factions, each with their own motives and stories, adding layers of intrigue and depth to the gameplay.


First Impressions and Unique Elements

When I first saw this game, I didn’t foresee it being the way it ultimately turned out. Not sure what I really thought I’d expect, but the Meta-Human aspect is a nice touch and elevated it a bit more beyond arming oneself with traditional weapons only to take on the baddies. I think the depth of this game will please those who are fans of co-op survival, crafting, horror, and third-person shooters.

Watch the Gameplay

Curious to see "Once Human” in action? Check out the first 30 minutes of gameplay here:



Once Human” is more than just a survival game; it’s an immersive experience that combines strategy, action, and storytelling in a beautifully crafted world. Whether you’re a fan of survival games or new to the genre, “Once Human” promises an adventure worth embarking on.


Tip: If you are looking for the Extradimensional Cat... just look on the roof of the home located just behind the Deadsville Teleporter. If it gets away during your attempt to capture it, no worries, just teleport out and try again when you zap back. Happy Hunting Control Wielding-Weekenders, Game On! Blu

Unknown 9: Awakening


After a 3 year wait, Unknown 9: Awakening is nearing the finish line for our enjoyment.

Unknown 9: Awakening presents itself as a captivating entry into the adventure game genre, headlined by a protagonist who is a female Quaestor named Haroona. With an intriguing ability to tap into powers from an alternate realm that she explores—a realm aptly dubbed the Fold—players are enticed with the prospect of tailoring their gameplay experience. Mastery of the Fold, it seems, offers a variety of playstyles, potentially catering to a diverse range of gamers' preferences.

Haroon's compelling narrative arc intertwines her thirst for knowledge with the perils of her connection to the Fold. In a plot twist reminiscent of enthralling cinematic narratives, Haroona finds herself thrust into a defensive corner when the Ascendants, a splinter faction, target her in their quest to exploit the Fold's enigmatic powers.

At the outset, the game's aura could easily be mistaken for a fresh chapter in the "Assassin's Creed" saga. However, "Unknown 9: Awakening" promises to carve out its own niche in the action-adventure landscape, teasing a synthesis reminiscent of franchises such as "Tomb Raider" and "Control" + "Assassin's Creed". It's an ambitious blend that piques curiosity about how this title will distinguish itself upon its anticipated release on PC, PS5, and Xbox in 2024.

Cheers to new adventures, and as always, game on, mga ka-tropa!
