DontNod’s gritty action-RPG Vampyr is getting a TV spinoff, it has been announced.
The game’s developer, Dontnod Entertainment, granted the TV series rights to Fox 21, a subsidiary of 20th Century Fox. The actual adaptation will be handled by DJ2 Entertainment, who is already working with Dontnod on a TV adaptation of Life is Strange.
“We believe it is a fantastic premise for a television show,” said Dontnod CEO Oskar Guilbert. “This is a new and exciting way for fans of the game, as well as the uninitiated, to enter and engage with Vampyr’s rich, deep story. We cannot wait to see how the talented team at Fox21 will bring out the darkly atmospheric universe of our game into television.”
Vampyr Joins The Witcher and Halo is getting their own TV series.
