Only eight races at ship, just like Blood Bowl 1. We still have not decided what will be the distribution for the next races. RPS: It comes with eight teams right out of the box, Blood Bowl 2? Now we’re working on more major IPs like Warhammer 40K: Space Hulk and this kind of stuff. Since then we’ve been working with all their IPs in this manner. We managed to find a deal where we said, “We’ll stop exploiting the Chaos League licence and we start exploiting the Blood Bowl licence with you.” Since Chaos League was very fun and did well, they were more than happy to work with us at this point. When we shipped the game we had a really good success, and they were a bit unhappy because it was so close to Blood Bowl that they felt like we cheated their IP.
Since we were really eager to make the game we decided to do it even though we didn’t have the licence, so we created a new licence which was very similar to theirs. They did not want at that time to share their licences with us. Sylvain Sechi: Actually, the little story is we did not manage to get the IP from Games Workshop. I don’t know if you heard about this game? It was a really passionate project because Cyanide had already done Chaos League before. When I got into Cyanide eight years ago it was as game designer on Blood Bowl 1. We used to play it with my cousins and we were not really faithful to the rules back then because we were a bit young. Actually that was the very first miniature game I played from Games Workshop. Sylvain Sechi: I played it on I think the third or fourth edition with my cousin. RPS: How far back does your personal history with Blood Bowl go? Did you play the board game? Will Blood Bowl 2 remedy that? I spoke to Sylvain Sechi, project manager on Cyanide Studio’s Blood Bowl 2, to try to find out. The judgemental timer of Steam says I’ve played Blood Bowl more than a lot of other games in my library, more than plenty of games I play without having to complain about the interface, or the AI, or the fact you can’t turn the commentators off and turning their volume down banishes them only until you score a touchdown and then suddenly they’re back in your headphones and GRRR GORBAG SO CRANKY.īlood Bowl is a game I love in spite of its flaws but find hard to recommend.
He wrote Orcs like football hooligans and so Games Workshop's idea of them actually playing football – albeit a version of American football where mutilations are encouraged – makes some sort of sense.
