If you’ve ever dreamed about the media you love becoming a well-made video game, then Big Fan Games may well become your new fave. Launched on October 1st, 2024, Big Fan is a fresh indie publishing label under the Devolver Digital banner, and it’s all about giving fans what they really want: creative, passionate adaptations of beloved entertainment franchises.
The folks behind Big Fan aren’t just newcomers. They’re veterans with experience working on everything from Dune and Star Wars to Hellboy, Blade Runner, and John Wick.
Unlike the typical cash-grab tie-ins we usually see with major franchises, Big Fan lets indie developers explore these worlds on their terms so that they can capture the heart and soul of the original material. And let’s be honest. The indie scene has always been where some of the most innovative and unexpected games come from, so it’s exciting to see what they’ll cook up with such iconic IPs.
Whether it’s a fresh take on old-school favourites or giving unknown stories what they deserve, Big Fan is shaping up to be a dream come true for anyone who’s ever wanted to see their favourite universe expanded in interactive form.
If you’ve got an idea that’s been rattling around in your brain, or if you’ve always wished your favourite movie or book had its own game, Big Fan wants to know. Go on, visit bigfangames.com to shoot your shot!
