Peaky Blinders Blockchain Game Set to Launch in 2026
Banijay Entertainment has partnered with Anonymous Labs to develop a blockchain game based on the television series Peaky Blinders, set for release in 2026. Key details include:
- The game will feature an in-game cryptocurrency.
- It will offer interactive experiences and action sequences reflective of the show's post-World War I Birmingham setting.
- Anonymous Labs aims to integrate "Web2" intellectual property into the crypto space.
- This follows the company's previous token launch for Simon's Cat, which saw an 89% decline from its all-time high.
- Banijay acquired the production company behind Peaky Blinders in 2022 and has previously engaged in licensing deals related to the franchise.
- Past gaming efforts tied to Peaky Blinders have included mixed reviews for both VR and puzzle games.
The trend of traditional media licensing for crypto games continues, with notable past collaborations involving SEGA and Ubisoft, although none have significantly resonated with audiences.
