"Blade Runner: Time To Live", secretly developed by Supermassive Games, a developer of "Blade Runner" has been cancelled.This undisclosed action adventure game was originally planned to be set in 2065, and players will play the last Blade Runner to embark on a 10-12-hour single-player plot journey.According to confidential documents, this game attempts to "integrate the philosophical propositions of "Blade Runner" with dynamic action adventure gameplay."

The project started pre-production in September 2024, and the core team comes from the development team of "Quarry Quarry".The pre-production was originally scheduled to be completed in March 2025, and the prototype development was completed in September 2025. It is finally planned to log on to the PS5/XSX|S/PC and next-generation hosting platforms in September 2027.The total budget of the project is approximately US$45 million, of which 9 million is used for external motion capture and actor compensation (but does not include soundtrack, actor portrait rights, QA testing, localization and DLC fees).

Players will play the role of the Nexus-6 copyist "So-Lange" - an old model that should have exceeded the limit of life but mysteriously survived.The story extends from the dungeon of New Zurich in 2065 to the forgotten world of ruins. The protagonist is betrayed when he is ordered to execute the underground copyist network leader Rev and survives in a crisis-ridden environment.

The game is built around four core gameplays:

Stealth: Use the environment to avoid enemies

Fight: close combat and gun battle

Explore and investigate: Crack cases through technological equipment

Dramatic character interaction: Contains Supermassive’s iconic “real, sharp and profound” dialogue system

The development document also mentions mechanisms such as skill upgrades, memory traceback and puzzle solving.A source close to the project commented that its design was "quite amazing".

According to multiple sources, the intervention of copyright holder Alcon Entertainment was the main reason for the termination of the project.In order to protect the source of information, specific details are not convenient to disclose.The project was quietly terminated at the end of last year.In response to this news, Supermassive Games responded that it was "unable to comment", while Alcon Entertainment has not responded yet.
