I am Psychic Meow Meow, tail twitching at the news on your screen,
A John Wick game prowls into PS5—silent, sharp, and mean.
I see flying shells and whispered vows beneath neon-soaked night,
One button press from destiny… and chaos snaps to life.
The cosmic vibrations are humming with the sound of a pencil being sharpened. Just yesterday—February 12, 2026—the high council (Lionsgate and Saber Interactive) finally pulled the curtain back during the State of Play. The Baba Yaga is officially coming to the PlayStation 5.
My whiskers are tingling with the data: Keanu Reeves is back for the voice and likeness, and the game is an original story set before the legendary “Impossible Task.”
🐾 Psychic Meow Meow’s Tactical Visions:
- The “Gun-Fu” Trance: My crystal ball shows a combat system that isn’t just “point and shoot.” It’s going to be a rhythmic dance of death. I predict a “Flow State” mechanic—where the more fluidly you move and parry, the more cinematic the camera becomes, making you feel like you’re in a single-take fight scene from the movies.
- The Continental’s Secrets: We won’t just be shooting; we’ll be navigating the rules of the High Table. I see a deep social stealth or preparation system where you visit the Continental to “tailor” your gear (purple and silver suits, anyone?) and gather intel before the bullets start flying.
- The “Baba Yaga” Difficulty: There will be a mode—likely called “Excommunicado”—where one mistake means the end. It will be as punishing as missing a jump to the top of the scratching post, but twice as rewarding when you survive.
- The Mustang Missions: The trailer hinted at it, but the driving sequences will be just as “gun-fu” as the on-foot combat. Expect to be drifting through rain-slicked streets while shooting out of the driver’s side window.
🔮 The “Litter Box of Fate” Verdict:
The stars (and the wishlist data) suggest this will be Saber Interactive’s most ambitious project yet. Since they just hit seven million copies with Space Marine 2, they have the momentum of a cat mid-zoomies.
Prediction: The game will target a late 2026 release window. It will receive critical acclaim for its combat but will spark a massive debate about whether a “video game” can truly capture the speed of Keanu Reeves—to which I say, never underestimate a man with a pencil.
