Steamforged Games has announced that they're planning to kick off a Kickstarter campaign later this autumn for an official board game based on Resident Evil 2, and the company has a pretty solid track record when it comes to funding board games via the platform, as Dark Souls: The Official Board Game broke records and was funded almost immediately.
"It's a privilege and an honour to be trusted to bring such an important video game to life as a board game," said Mat Hart, Creative Director and Co-founder of Steamforged Games. "Resident Evil 2 helped to define its own genre of games and has created a lasting legacy in video game history. Steamforged has several Resident Evil super fans on the team and so we have a deep understanding of what makes RE such a compelling game experience; one that still has legions of fans around the world still playing the game nearly two decades after its release. We're determined to surprise and delight players new and old with this board game realisation, even the most hardcore of fans!"
Unfortunately, there are no images to show, but we'll update you once the campaign kicks off. How would you like to see Resident Evil 2 transferred into board game form though?
