Fans of the popular FX television show Sons of Anarchy should probably put on a helmet for this news: plans are afoot to bring the gang to consoles for some gaming, well, anarchy. The title is in the concept phase for the moment, but the idea of potentially riding a motorcycle in the open-world town of Charming is certainly a nice thought.
The announcement for the first ever Sons of Anarchy game came over Twitter, where Show Creator Kurt Sutter often posts news about the show.
Kurt had already tweeted about the possibly of producing a videogame, but at the time they were considering making it a PC-based MMO. Sutter - never one to shy away from offending anyone - stated he was happy to move away from the idea, because he wanted to make a “real game.” He also stated that he and everyone at FX and Fox were committed to ensuring the game reaches fruition.
It goes without saying that having the showrunner himself personally backing a title can make a difference, and we’re excited to hear more as news trickles out.
SOA GAME UPDATE. had a great meeting with a big distributor yesterday. myself and everyone at FX and Fox is committed to making this happen.
Yes, we definitely wanna do a REAL game. console based. not some slapcrap browser MP thing. it’ll take awhile, but it’s the right way to go.
