BLACK PANTHER Open World Game Teased by EA Job Listing

Apr 14, 2024 3:04 PM

Exciting news for superhero game fans: Electronic Arts (EA) might be expanding its lineup with an open-world Black Panther game. While details are scarce, a job listing from EA's Cliffhanger Games for a principal sandbox designer hints at an expansive world. This position requires the candidate to work on designing and populating dynamic encounters within such an environment, pointing toward an open-world format. While this isn't confirmed, it suggests EA is venturing into a popular model for AAA games, promising engaging action befitting the Black Panther's abilities. Just last month, Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra was teased by Skydance New Media, showcasing Captain America and Black Panther, although it is a separate project from EA's game.

Is EA developing an open-world Black Panther video game?

Yes, based on a job listing posted by Cliffhanger Games, an EA studio, they are seeking a designer to work on a dynamic and evolving open-world game, which is speculated to be based on the Black Panther franchise.

The Black Panther character, created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby, made his first appearance in 'Fantastic Four Vol. 1' Issue 52 in 1966 and has since become one of Marvel's most iconic superheroes. The character's increased popularity, especially after the successful 2018 Marvel Cinematic Universe film, has led to various media adaptations including comics, animated series, and films. This further explains the excitement surrounding the potential open-world Black Panther video game by EA, as it represents an opportunity for fans to explore the rich lore and vibrant world of Wakanda in an interactive format.
