CitarMantic Games is pleased to announce it has entered into a licensing partnership with Dark Horse Comics for the worldwide rights to produce a game set in Mike Mignola's inspirational Hellboy comic book universe.

The Hellboy board game will be a co-operative experience in which players face off against some of the comic's most famous foes. Up to four people take control of iconic BRPD members, such as Hellboy, Abe Sapien and Roger the Homunculus, before exploring gothic locations and uncovering ancient artifacts.

Set to make its Kickstarter debut in April 2018, the Hellboy board game will feature stunning, pre-assembled plastic miniatures that accurately capture the look and feel of Mike Mignola's world famous comic series.

"Hellboy has a great cast of characters, diverse locations and legendary monsters from the pages of folklore and myth," said Ronnie Renton, Mantic CEO. "The comics provide a fantastic foundation on which to build an immersive, fun and fast-paced co-operative board game that will let players experience some of their favorite moments from the series."

"Dark Horse is excited to work with Mantic Games on a Hellboy board game," said Dark Horse Comics' Chief Business Development Officer Nick McWhorter. "Mantic is not only a leader in the Miniatures Board Game category, but also have a thorough understanding of Hellboy and the BPRD storylines and how to integrate them into a game. We're confident they can deliver a board game that fans of Hellboy and miniatures games alike can appreciate!"

Hellboy has appeared in graphic novels and comic books, prose novels and short story collections, two animated features, two live-action films, toy lines and all manner of merchandise. Neil Marshall's forthcoming Hellboy film is currently in pre-production, starring David Harbour, Sasha Lane, Ian McShane, Penelope Mitchell, and Milla Jovovich.

Osssssssssssstras!!!!!!!! Como fan y poseedor de los tres tomazos recopilatorios de Hellboy... no sabes lo feliz que me has hecho. Y encima con miniaturas al estilo Mignola. Me lo guardo como futurible a la espera de saber precios (aportaciones), pero siendo Mantic no me espero nada descabellado para ser un juego de licencia.

euronymous

Pues por un lado y como lector de Hellboy .. cojonudo !
Por otro..., me da pena que se encargue Mantic de hacer las minis, porque ya ha demostrado en Kow, Deadzone , y casi todo lo que toca, que son capaces de sacar las minis más penosas y cutronas que pueden poblar una mesa.  Algunas buenas sacan, pero muy pocas.

Amandil

...en general sí, pero a mi por ejemplo me han sorprendido para bien las miniaturas de The Walking Dead: All Out War, pero vamos, como tu dices hay de todo.

Arendel

A mi Mantic es una empresa cuyas miniaturas de "libre creación" me parecen de baja calidad para lo que hay en el mercado.
Peeeero, con las de Walking Dead demostraron que cuando tienen algo en lo que inspirarse son muy capaces. Esas miniaturas son estupendas. Si hacen algo por el estilo, las de Hellboy pueden quedar muy bien.

Gonfrask

En The Walking Dead donde la han "pifiado" es con todo lo que se supone niños...ni el joven Carl ni Clementine pareces niños,  sino gente bajita...
Yo esperare a ver que hacen antes de criticarles,  pero con sus gamas tengo una relacion de amor odio

Mantic acaba de anunciar que el diseñador del juego sera James M. Hewitt.



CitarWe are pleased to announce that our upcoming Hellboy board game – based upon the visionary comic book series by Mike Mignola – will be designed by well known tabletop games designer James M. Hewitt. With a wealth of high profile titles already under his belt, James will ensure the Hellboy board game lives up to the world famous source material.

The Hellboy board game will be a co-operative experience in which players face off against some of the comic's most famous foes. Up to four people take control of iconic BPRD members, such as Hellboy, Abe Sapien and Liz Sherman, before exploring gothic locations and uncovering ancient artifacts.

After previously working at Mantic Games and Games Workshop, James now heads up the games design studio Needy Cat Games. In the past he has developed hugely popular titles, such as DreadBall, Necromunda 2017, Blood Bowl 2016, Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower and Horus Heresy: Betrayal at Calth.

"We wanted a talented games designer who could create a fun, co-operative board game that incorporates the atmosphere and drama of the comics," said Ronnie Renton, Mantic Games CEO. "James has a wealth of experience making a diverse range of titles and he's most certainly the man for the job."

"This is – forgive the pun – one hell of a license to work with," added James. "The thought of sinking my teeth into the BPRD's adventures and reimagining them for the tabletop... well, that sounds more fun than a monkey with a gun. This is a great chance to make a narrative-led game that mixes big, loud action with a wry sense of humour. I can't wait!"

Hellboy has appeared in graphic novels and comic books, prose novels and short story collections, two animated features, two live-action films, toy lines and all manner of merchandise.

..hombre, tiene un buen currículum, ya veremos como sale la cosa.....

senmar1988

Éste no es el que dejó escrito Adeptus Titanicus antes de irse de GW?? Es un crack!!!

Lord Borjado

Voy a esperar hasta que vayan adelantando más en cuanto a mecánicas  (que no espero que sean muy revolucionarias) componentes y, sobre todo precio.
De momento no me pone los pelos de punta, pero no le cierro la puerta

periprocto

Es mantic.  Las minis que ha hecho hasta ahora no son muy de aclamar, la verdad.

Katsumot

Pues la verdad....ni Hellboy me dice nada ni otro Kickstarter que no me apuntaré... no sé, ahora sacan Kickstarter de todo y cansan bastante.

senmar1988

Hombre la calidad de las minis va en el precio también... y el dibujo de Mignola no da pie a minis detalladísimas ni enrevesadas, así que no creo que la calidad de las minis vaya a ser un problema!

macdavilo

A pesar de ser super fan de Hellboy, tengo que decir que tengo muchas reservas de esto, asi que vamos a verlo y luego ya opinaremos

Por si alguno anda por tierras inglesas o tiene previsto estar por ellas, avisan que el dia 17 de marzo realizaran una sesion de testeo en la central de mantic y podéis enviar un correo a Sophia de needycatgames por si aun quedara alguna plaza para participar en el.

CitarMantic will be hosting a playtesting day at their HQ in Nottingham on March 17th, and there might still have a few spaces left - if you'd like to come along and get involved then let Sophie know by emailing sophie@needycatgames.com. Spaces are very limited so no guarantees! You'll need to make your own way there, but it's a great chance to meet the Needy Cat gang as we'll both be there interrogating participants for their thoughts on the game and squeezing insights out of them (in a nice way, of course).
