Publisher Bigben has announced they have obtained the rights to publish and distribute RPG action game Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood from Focus Home Interactive. The game was first announced in early 2017 and is set to be released on both consoles and PC in 2020.
Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is an action RPG adaptation of the classic role-playing game that sees players become banished werewolf, Cahal. As Cahal, players will set out on a quest for redemption by getting rid of those who would pollute, destroy and corrupt the Earth.
“We are thrilled to have reached this agreement which considers, in an equitable way, the different parties’ investments. This will allow Cyanide to keep the ball rolling on the game’s development and to give its numerous fans a really unique experience, in a universe that gamers are very fond of,” declared Alain Falc, Bigben’s CEO.
“The intense action and desperate supernatural danger of Werewolf is a perfect fit for BigBen,” said Shams Jorjani, VP Business Development at Paradox Interactive, and interim manager at White Wolf. “And this is happening at the best time, because of our renewed focus on brand management and licensing. This allows us to give our partners exactly what they need to develop amazing customer experiences in their licensed products. Video games always have been a key pillar to White Wolf’s brand strategy: they’re an incredibly powerful medium for great World of Darkness stories! So, we are looking forward very much to this partnership, and to many others, in the months and years ahead.”
Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood will arrive on both consoles and PC in 2020.
