Now a hugely popular franchise, the first installment in this series was the dystopian 2005 novel Metro 2033 by Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky. A vast range of fiction has since spawned from the setting, several different authors, and a range of genres. But the FPS video games Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, and 2019's Metro Exodus have helped mak...
While this 2000 PlayStation title didn't receive much critical acclaim, Vampire Hunter D was an exciting take on the Resident Evil style of survival horror game that tried to introduce a bit more dynamism to the combat. But the vampire's castle setting was inspired by the Vampire Hunter D novels of Japanese author Hideyuki Kikuchi, which have also ...
Frank Herbert's original Dune novel may date back to 1965, but it has regularly been the inspiration for board, roleplaying, and video games ever since, as well as films and television series. The 1992 Amiga and PC game was genuinely epic by the standards of the day, becoming a huge hit. It largely follows the book's plot, using RTS and adventure g...
Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski had his first collection of short stories, The Witcher, published in 1990. There have been six novels and 15 short stories about the antihero Geralt of Rivia in total, but many fans will be more familiar with the television series and popular ARPGs. The games have wowed fans across multiple platforms, with 2015's The...
While best known to many as a hit Hollywood movie, World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War was first released as a novel by American author Max Brooks in 2006. But it wasn't until 2019 that the multi-platform co-operative third-person shooter arrived. It took inspiration from both the book and the film and was praised for its combat mechanic...
Loosely based on Soviet authors Arkady and Boris Strugatsky's novel Roadside Picnic, the first STALKER game was released in 2007. The survival horror FPS was a huge hit, with the book's original extra-terrestrial setting replaced with a starkly realistic Chernobyl backdrop. Two more highly acclaimed titles followed, with STALKER 2: Heart of Chernob...
When you think of Conan, it's hard not to imagine Schwarzenegger in all his 1980s glory. But the character dates back to 1932 when Robert E Howard originally created the swords and sorcery hero for a series of stories published in the magazine Weird Tales. RPG Conan Exiles was released in 2018, creating a harsh landscape based on the lands of the p...
The original Call of Cthulhu short story, written by HP Lovecraft, was published in 1928 in Weird Tales, just four years before the first Conan stories appeared in the same magazine. Practically ignored at the time, Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos rose to public attention in the 1980s, years after his death, inspiring games of all kinds. The most recent...
Video game Discworld Noir arrived on PC and PlayStation in 1999, while English author Terry Pratchett was still at the peak of his writing powers. As the noir in the title suggests, the game is based around Discworld's only PI and parodies genre classics, including The Maltese Falcon. Pratchett himself helped work on the adventure game, with its ex...
While many games have drawn inspiration, either directly or indirectly, from Tolkien's novels, none have done a better job of recreating Middle Earththan The Lord of the Rings Online. The MMORPG sees characters progressing through the same storyline as the main characters but largely at a tangent from them, occasionally meeting up with the protagon...
Rome is an American-British historical drama television series released in 2005–2007 and created by John Milius, William J. MacDonald, and Bruno Heller. The series is set in the 1st century BC, during Ancient Rome's transition from Republic to Empire.
