Keanu Reeves is back as John Wick, but not in the fifth film. The legendary hitman will return in a brand new project, a video game, set years before the events of the films. The trailer for the game, unveiled during the PlayStation State of Play livestream, features Keanu's likeness, with his face hidden for most of the footage. The game promises a mix of established and new characters, and will be developed by Saber Interactive, known for their work on World War Z and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. The game's director, Chad Stahelski, and Keanu himself are involved in its production, ensuring the game stays true to the franchise's action-packed style. This isn't the first time the John Wick franchise has ventured into gaming, with crossovers and spin-offs, but it's the first time Keanu will be involved in a game directly. The game will be released on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S, and fans can't wait to step into the shoes of their favorite assassin once again. But here's where it gets interesting: Keanu's involvement in the game has sparked a debate about the future of the franchise. While the game is set to be a AAA title, some fans are wondering if it will overshadow the films. Will the game be a worthy addition to the John Wick universe, or will it take away from the cinematic experience? Only time will tell. The game's release date is yet to be announced, but fans are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to explore the world of The High Table in a whole new way.
