Marvel’s Blade: A Closer Look at the Game Awards Reveal

Marvel’s Blade made a splash at the Game Awards, exciting fans with its first proper video game adaptation of the beloved character. Developed by Arkane Lyon, the creators of games like Deathloop and the Dishonored series, the reveal trailer left fans hungry for more.

Co-creative director/art director Sébastien Mitton recently shared a few intriguing concept art images on X, created by artists Sergey Kolesov and Jean-Luc Monnet. These images offer a glimpse into the artistic tone and vibe of the upcoming game.

While concept art may not always directly translate to the finished product, it still provides valuable insight into the game’s potential. The dense city streets and subways depicted in the images reflect Arkane’s expertise in environmental design, hinting at a richly detailed game world. Blade’s stealthy and shadowy positions suggest a focus on strategic problem-solving, a trademark feature of Arkane’s games.
