A brand-new John Wick video game has officially been announced, and fans of the franchise have a major reason to be excited: Keanu Reeves is reprising his role as the legendary assassin.

Currently confirmed only for PS5, the game is still early in development, with no release date or launch window revealed so far.

A AAA John Wick Game in the Works

The project is being developed by Saber Interactive, not a first-party Sony studio. While this means the title is presently announced as a PS5 exclusive, developers have not ruled out other platforms, leaving the door open for future announcements.

The development team has been clear about one thing: this is a full AAA John Wick game, aiming to deliver a high-budget, cinematic action experience worthy of the franchise’s reputation.

Canon Story Set Within the John Wick Timeline

Game Director Jesus Iglesias confirmed that the game is being created in close collaboration with franchise creator and director Chad Stahelski, as well as Keanu Reeves himself.

Most importantly for fans, the narrative is fully canon and takes place within the established John Wick timeline. While the exact placement in the story has not yet been revealed, the developers stated that the game will:

“Contribute to the expansive and rich lore of the franchise.”

The story is described as an original narrative that explores a significant and previously unseen period of John Wick’s life.

Familiar Faces and New Characters

Players can reasonably expect appearances from iconic characters such as Winston and The Bowery King, though the developers have yet to confirm specific roles or how new characters will be introduced.

According to the development team, the game will feature:

• Well-known characters from the films
• Brand-new characters created specifically for the game
• A story-driven experience designed to expand the John Wick universe

How these characters intersect with John Wick’s journey remains a mystery for now.

Platforms and What’s Next

At present, the John Wick game is only confirmed for PlayStation 5. Since Saber Interactive is a third-party developer, there is a strong possibility that additional platforms could be announced later in development.

With its AAA scope, canon storyline, and direct involvement from the film’s creative leadership, the John Wick PS5 game is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious adaptations of the franchise yet.

More details—including gameplay, platforms, and a release window—are expected as development progresses.
