I saw a lot of hype / skepticism for the newly announced Blade Runner game, and just want to mention that there's already a pretty incredible Blade-Runner-inspired game, LOW-FI, releasing later this y (www.youtube.com)

It's a huge open world experience, available in VR (but not required), in a retro-futuristic cyberpunk slum. Hundreds of crimes and stories to solve, lots of places to explore, AI companions to get, the flying car, tons more.

I've met the developer of this; cool guy, a former Technical Director at Rockstar Games. Blade Runner's a clear inspiration of his, so if the Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth news felt like all sizzle and no steak to you 😅, here's a meal you can see, coming much sooner.

There's also the already existing Blade Runner game from 1997, which still holds up EXTREMELY well considering its age, and absolutely nails the feeling of the films.

There's also Hideo Kojima's Snatcher, which is was heavily inspired by bladerunner, and also holds up well if you like the 90's anime vibe.
