Bloober Team has announced that they’ve signed a licensing and publishing agreement with Skybound Entertainment to develop a new game based on one of Skybound’s intellectual properties. The game, code-named “R“, is expected to be released in 2025.

“This project is another step in our second-party strategy, where we work with external partners to provide our horror know-how,” stated Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno in a press release. “These are titles that are meant to not only give us financial profit, but are the next steps in achieving our strategy by the end of 2027. We have known our friends from Skybound for a long time and I am sure it will be a successful cooperation.”

For those curious, Skybound, which is owned by The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman, has plenty of IPs that Bloober Team can use. Aside from the obvious, like The Walking Dead and Invincible, Skybound can also dip into Donny Cates‘ vampire comic Redneck, and the supernatural horror title Outcast by Kirkman and Paul Azaceta. Not to mention that Kirkman also did the story for Chris McKay‘s Renfield, though that might be a little bit tricky, given Universal’s involvement.

Plus, we already have a game based on Renfield with Mega Cat Studios’ Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood.

In the meantime, one hopes that we hear more about Bloober Team’s other big-name project in the new year, though that entirely depends upon Konami.
