Publisher Bigben Interactive has published a teaser trailer for their upcoming action-RPG Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood, which is based on a popular tabletop role-playing franchise.
The Werewolf: The Apocalypse formed part of the Classic World of Darkness tabletop RPG line first published back in the mid-1980s. Earthblood will be the first video game adaptation, which was first announced back in 2017.
Today is the first we’ve heard since Bigben announced its acquisition of Cyanide, the development studio making the game. The publisher said of the game and acquisition late last year:
“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.”
Werewolf: The Apocalpyse Earthblood’s story and premise were also described at that time:
Become Cahal, a banished werewolf, forced to return to the aid of his endangered clan and master the devastating Rage within him to punish all those that would pollute, destroy, and corrupt our Mother Earth, Gaïa. On his bloody quest for redemption, Cahal will play a pivotal role in the Great War of the Garou against Pentex, a powerful corporation whose activities are upsetting the balance of nature.
Werewolf will be showcased in more detail later this month to attendees of Paradox Interactive’s PDXcon event, Oct. 19. Director Julien Desourteaux will also present a keynote revealing more information on the game.
