Saber Interactive is Developing a AAA Title in a Major Hasbro IP
Saber Interactive delivered one of 2024’s best games in the form of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and we now know more about what project that game’s development team is moving on to next.
Reported by Polygon, Hasbro announced during its recent quarterly earnings call that it has partnered with Saber Interactive for a AAA project based on one of its IP, to be developed by the Space Marine 2 team. Hasbro owns several major properties, including Dungeons and Dragons, Transformers, Magic: The Gathering, G.I. Joe, and others.
According to Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks, the Saber title will be based on one of Hasbro’s “tentpole IPs”, and will use the Swarm engine, which was utilized for Space Marine 2’s development as well.
“We have many new digital collaborations in the works, but I’m especially excited to announce this one today, being a personal fan of many of this team’s games,” he said. “Hasbro and Saber Interactive will be collaborating on an all-new video game partnership developed by the team behind 2024’s megahit, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. Combining high-octane single-player action and amazing multiplayer with Saber’s Swarm tech, this new AAA title, based on one of our tentpole IPs, is sure to be a hit.”
What we do not know yet is which IP specifically Saber and Hasbro have chosen to work on together. Cocks did confirm, however, that the game will be co-published by the two companies.
Saber Interactive currently has a couple other AAA licensed titles in development as well, including Jurassic Park: Survival and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Remake.
