Black Panther Video Game Coming From EA's Cliffhanger Games
EA announced today that Cliffhanger Games, a new triple-A studio based in Seattle, is working on a previously-reported Black Panther game. Cliffhanger Games is helmed by Kevin Stephens, who was previously at Monolith Productions and is credited on numerous titles, including Middle-earth: Shadow of War and Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. The team at Cliffhanger is reportedly made up of folks who have worked on many huge franchises and games. As players take on the mantle of the Black Panther, they will explore an “expansive and reactive world.”
“We’re dedicated to delivering fans a definitive and authentic Black Panther experience, giving them more agency and control over their narrative than they have ever experienced in a story-driven video game,” Stephens said in the press release. “Wakanda is a rich Superhero sandbox, and our mission is to develop an epic world for players who love Black Panther and want to explore the world of Wakanda as much as we do.”
