Rooster Teeth Developing New RWBY Game For Major Consoles Coming 2021

Independent game studio WayForward (Shantae and the Seven Sirens, River City Girls), in conjunction with entertainment company Rooster Teeth and publisher/developer Arc System Works (Guilty Gear -Strive-, BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle), is thrilled to confirm the production of an all-new video game based on the global animated hit RWBY.

Rooster Teeth will deliver an original RWBY story for the game from the show’s writers Kerry Shawcross, Miles Luna and Eddy Rivas. Development of the game will be handled by WayForward, while publishing duties will be split between WayForward and Arc System Works, and creative oversight will be provided by Rooster Teeth. The RWBY video game (final title TBD) is tentatively scheduled to arrive on multiple platforms in 2021.

Initially revealed during Rooster Teeth’s virtual RTX at Home event, the upcoming game will let players take control of Team RWBY — Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long — and use their trademark weapons and abilities to deliver the stylish action that has made RWBY a sensation with audiences worldwide. Additional information about the gameplay, features, distribution, and pricing will be revealed at a later date.
