Zack Snyder reveals he’s working on a massive RPG video game based on Rebel Moon

For a guy who’s produced several movies about zombie apocalypses, hyper-violent historical battles featuring shirtless bearded men yelling, antiheroic superheroes beating each other into a pulp, you’d think Zack Synder would have been involved some way or another with a videogame by now. It sounds as though that’s about to change, if we can believe what the director of Zack Snyder’s Justice League and Army of the DeadA podcast that I heard recently.

Snyder appeared on an episode on Nerd Queens podcast, which was released on Sunday, and talked about several ongoing projects like his fundraising collaborations for American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, as well as his two-part space opera film.

The director seemed to be having a lot of fun — so much so that he let slip a mention of a previously unannounced project he’s working on: an RPG set in the universe of Rebel Moon.

“The one thing that I’m having a really good time with – and I don’t really know if I’m supposed to talk about it – is this RPG that we’re doing that is just literally insane, and so immersive and so intense and so huge,” Snyder revealed while discussing his aforementioned sci-fi film starring Sofia Boutella (The MummyDjimon HounsouBlood DiamondEd Skrein (Game of Thrones). The director interrupted himself, before stating that, “There’s more coming, but all I’ll say is that it was pitched to me – because I’ve always wanted to do an RPG – like, ‘well, we could do it at this scale, or we could do it at ridiculous scale.” Snyder briefly elaborated further, revealing that he pitched the idea for the game himself to an as-of-yet unnamed developer and hinting that the project is still relatively early in development.

Many video games have been adapted to sci-fi or fantasy films. Likewise, there’s been just as many would-be sci-fi video game adaptations that otherwise have never come to fruition (Christopher Nolan announced his interest in making an Inception video game as early as 2010, a project which the director is still apparently interested in). Here’s hoping that Zack Snyder’s upcoming, as-of-yet-untitled, and officially as-of-yet-unannounced Rebel MoonA videogame will soon be released.
