- In 2023, Annapurna Interactive announced a new Blade Runner game set between the events of the two films.
- Unfortunately, the title has now been delisted on Steam and may have been cancelled.
- In 2024, most of the staff working on the game had resigned, too.
Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth was initially announced as a new game in the franchise after the last release in 1997, now set between the events of the original film and the more recent Blade Runner 2049.
Unfortunately, the title may now have been cancelled after being delisted on Steam and on Annapurna’s official website. Moreover, all the developers working on the game have also resigned a while ago.
Why it matters: Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth looked quite exciting, and fans have been waiting for a new update on the game ever since the announcement.
Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth’s official Steam page notes that it is no longer available. More importantly, most of the staff working on the game had also resigned from the studio around 2024, but it was understood that development would continue.
Unfortunately, continued turmoil at Annapurna Interactive may have led to the game’s cancellation. The studio was working on 14 games at that time, so it’s quite possible that some of them may have been shelved due to the situation at that time.
Now, the game isn’t to be found even on the developer’s official website.
This isn’t all, though — another Blade Runner game was cancelled last year, which was described as a third-person title under Supermassive Games. The title was focused on cinematics and a character-driven story featuring stealth and other mechanics.
This amounts to 2 Blade Runner games being cancelled back-to-back, and the only release we have right now is the 1997 title, a point-and-click adventure game.
