Lionsgate has officially confirmed that a big-budget AAA game based on the John Wick franchise is currently in development. This exciting news was revealed during a recent earnings call by Adam Fogelson, the chairman of the Lionsgate Motion Picture Group. While the franchise has seen smaller adaptations like John Wick Hex in the past, this new project is expected to be a much more in-depth experience that captures the high-intensity action the movies are known for. Fans have long requested a major gaming adaptation that allows them to truly step into the shoes of the legendary hitman.

Expanding the Lionsgate Gaming Universe

The John Wick title is just one part of a larger push into the gaming industry for Lionsgate. The company also hinted at upcoming projects based on other major properties, including the SAW franchise and potentially The Hunger Games. According to executives, the studio has seen a significant increase in interest for game adaptations and is working to bring these iconic worlds to life on modern hardware. While details on the developer and gameplay style remain under wraps, the company promised that official announcements for these titles will be coming very soon.

Keanu Reeves and the Potential for a New Story

While it hasn’t been confirmed if Keanu Reeves will reprise his role for the game, his previous success as Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077 has set a high standard for his involvement in gaming. It is also unclear whether the game will follow the plot of the existing films or introduce an entirely new storyline within the John Wick universe. Regardless of the narrative direction, the promise of a big-budget action title has generated immense hype. As Lionsgate prepares for a formal reveal, the gaming community is eager to see if this project can deliver the cinematic combat and world-building that made the films a global phenomenon.
