Deathloop creator Arkane Lyon took to The Game Awards to announce its next game: Marvels Blade, a third-person action-adventure game that follows the titular Marvel Comics character.

Marvels Blade gets revealed
The studio behind Dishonored 2 and Deathloop has officially announced that its next game will be based on a very familiar IP: Marvel Comics Blade.
The Daywalker is a half-man, half-vampire who slays vampires whenever they make the mistake of creeping out in the night.
Blade tends to pop up whenever Marvel touches on its more supernatural side - where vampires, ghosts, demons and other creatures of hell (see: Ghost Rider) reside.
Its going to be interesting to see what Arkane does with the property, given how wide its scope can be.
The stylish trailer is set in a barbershop in Paris, where Blade is getting a shave from a worried barber.
Arkane Lyon is working on their home turf here as the game studio is located in France, so Paris is bound to see a faithful-ish recreation in the game.
Blade typically finds himself in New York in the comics, so this is an interesting fish-out-of-water scenario for the hero.
Marvel is working on many more games besides Blade:Insomniacs Wolverine game,Skydances World War 2-set Captain America and Black Panther game, andElectronic Arts Iron ManandBlack Panthergames are also in the works.
