Blade is MCU’s Secret Weapon

Among the many surprises at The Game Awards 2023, we got our first glimpse of Bethesda’s upcoming Blade game. Developed by Arkane Studios Lyon, this third-person action game puts players in the shoes of Marvel’s most iconic vampire hunter. It’s such a natural fit that we can only question why it’s been 20 years since the last Blade game. The Blade game and the upcoming Blade movie reboot are both coming at a critical time for Marvel, as the company moves forward after a rough 2023 and embraces this iconic vampire hunter as a key part of its future. Is Blade the cure to what ails Marvel these days? It wouldn’t be the first time. Let’s take a closer look at how the original Blade movie starring Wesley Snipes saved Marvel at a pivotal time in the company’s history, and why the new game and the Mahershala Ali-led movie reboot might just do the same decades later. #ign #blade #mcu
