Polish video game development studio Bloober Team will be adapting its 2021 psychological horror title The Medium with VFX company Platige Image. The news was shared on the game company's official website, in Polish.
Translated into English, founder Peter Babieno writes that although this is the beginning of a longer process and there's not yet a clear home for the series adaptation of the game, the Bloober Team project is in good hands with Platige Image. The latter company has long worked on many TV and film projects (including 2017's Wonder Woman), and also trailers and animatics for a wide variety of video games (including The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings and Cyberpunk 2077).
«Both the film industry and the video game industry are close to my heart and I am very happy that there is finally an opportunity to bring them both together,» writes Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno in the translated message." The story we told in the game was appreciated by players, and now more people will be able to hear about it. The latest hits of streaming platforms based on games such as Cyberpunk: Edgerunners or Arcane have shown that this is the perfect time for such productions."
Both titles name-dropped by Babieno are on Netflix--and it should be mentioned that The Witcher, also at that streaming service and another Polish-originated property, just wrapped production on Season 3.
