Vampyr Television Series Confirmed, FOX21 Secures Rights

Vampyr released last June to popular acclaim, selling 450,000 copies within the first month. Now it has been confirmed that a television series is releasing soon based on the game.

In a press release, it was confirmed that FOX21, who produce shows like Homeland and Sons of Anarchy, has secured the rights to Focus Home Interactive and Dontnod Entertainment's latest new IP.

Focus’ CEO Jurgen Goeldner agrees and says, “we are delighted to partner with Fox21 for the adaptation of Vampyr into a TV series. DONTNOD has created a uniquely dark, immersive world with deep narration, which has made Vampyr already a modern video game classic. We cannot wait to see Fox21 bring all of their talent and experience in launching a TV show that will allow an even wider audience to discover the fantastic universe of Vampyr.”

“The DJ2 team loves the creative vision Dontnod & Focus devote to all of their projects,” says DJ2 CEO, Dmitri Johnson. “The great relationship we’ve built with them since partnering on their incredible game, Life is Strange, allowed us to get on board for Vampyr well before its release. Like them, we’re excited to collaborate with our friends at Fox21, Wonderland, and the rest of the creative team we’re assembling.”

Vampyr is now available for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
