Peaky Blinders confirms unexpected Shelby family return coming very soon
Peaky Blinders has announced an unexpected franchise crossover, with the series set to enter the world of video games.
Three years on from its conclusion, and with a feature film continuation on the way, the BBC series has collaborated with Wargaming for their game, World of Tanks, with the latest battle pass being themed on the period drama.
Scheduled to release on March 20, the newest pass in the game will boast a slew of rewards tied-in with the BBC series, with players able to recruit several members of the Shelby family as well as customise their vehicle with Peaky Blinders-themed decorations.
In the video you see at the top, various prizes are displayed, featuring five Shelby family members: Tommy, Arthur, John, Ada, and Michael. Notably, Michael and another character can be obtained through a unique package deal.
“To truly own the battlefield, players can customise their vehicles with new Peaky Blinders-themed decals and inscriptions. And a specially composed soundtrack inspired by the show will transport them to the streets of Birmingham before they head into battle,” reads the synopsis.
As a fan, I can’t wait to get my hands on the fully-voiced characters who embody the distinctive swagger and grit from the show, bringing them straight onto the battlefield! But act fast, because this exclusive offer is only available until March 31st.
Whilst gamers can look forward to the crossover, the franchise will soon dip its toe into the world of film as The Immortal Man, a continuation of the series, is due to premiere on Netflix and the big screen in the near future.
“I just wanted to do it,” said writer-creator Steven Knight of the upcoming film. “I mean, part of it is, and this is not obviously the prime motivation, although I could pretend it is: I really want the Peaky fans who have been a big part of this, the way they found it.”
Peaky Blinders is available to stream on BBC iPlayer and Netflix. A movie is now in production.
