Todd McFarlane tackles the challenge of a new video game of Spawn

Spawn has appeared in several video games that go back to the Era of Super Nintendo, but it has spent a lot of time since the character obtained a leading role in one; Unfortunately, it does not seem that that is going to change at any time in the near future! Appearing in comicbook.com Podcast of the nation of the comic, the Spawn Creator, Todd McFarlane, was asked about the possibility. McFarlane revealed that there are currently no plans, since the new Spawn movie has priority. However, McFarlane emphasized that the film could help other projects take off.

«I think [The Movie] will be the engine of so many things around you. Literally, the commercial effect of the snowball. I do not want to have about 30 things that I have underway and then I regret because we now have a greater chance of doing something more great, or a bigger company wants to enter, "McFarlane said.

McFarlane raises a very good point regarding visibility and how live action films can lead to other projects to obtain green light. Guardians of the Marvel Galaxy is a perfect example; While the series of comics had faithful followers in advance, live action films resulted in greater public awareness about the characters. The guardians would never have received an important videogame treatment before 2014, but seven years later, they starred in one of the largest video games in 2021. That game does not take place at Marvel Cinematic Universe, but I would never have done it. It happened without the success of those films.

While this news will undoubtedly be disappointing for some Spawn fans, the character is currently available as a DLC fighter in mombat 11. Netherrealm Studios did everything possible because of the inclusion of SPAWN, including several references to the Spawn comics, including the previous meetings of him with Batman and the history of him with Violator; The game even presented a new voice job of Keith David! Obviously, fans would prefer a full game based on Spawn, but mombat 11 will have to help the fans meanwhile!
