The beloved Warhammer fantasy football video game adaptation, Blood Bowl, has been rescued from impending collapse by Slitherine, publishers of Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector. Slitherine acquired the licence, publishing rights, and back catalog from the faltering Nacon, promising to continue development on the upcoming Blood Bowl game announced by Nacon in collaboration with long-time series developer Cyanide Studio. Nacon, a publisher and developer known for titles like GreedFall 2, Hell is Us, RoboCop, and Test Drive Unlimited, filed for insolvency in February due to financial troubles. The third installment of Blood Bowl received a 'mixed' user review rating on Steam upon its 2023 launch, with IGN's review scoring it a 5/10. However, the prospect of Slitherine's involvement offers hope for improvement in future Blood Bowl games. Marco Minoli, Director of Publishing at Slitherine, expressed excitement about shaping Blood Bowl's future alongside Cyanide and Warhammer, with a commitment to community feedback, long-term development, and ongoing player engagement. Patrick Pligersdorffer, CEO of Cyanide, also welcomed the partnership with Slitherine to secure the future of the Blood Bowl video game series. More information on the next Blood Bowl installment is expected during the Slitherine Next Event on July 22.
