Dotemu, Guard Crush Games, and Supamonks announced beat ’em up Absolum is getting a new animated series. Staying true to the original game, the Absolum animated series will be overseen by Supermonks, who also handled the entire art direction and animation for the game.
Supamonks CEO Julien Bagnol-Roy said, “We are particularly excited about making this animated series because Supamonks has been involved in the Absolum project since its inception. Our teams have helped shape this universe right from the very start, and being able to now transform it into an animated series feels like a logical and exciting next step in our work. It is a unique opportunity to add a new dimension to a world we already know so well.”
Dotemu CEO Cyrille Imbert said, “As the first original production in our portfolio, Absolum has been given special attention at every stage of its development. Thanks to the game’s lore, art, and narrative development, we are certain it will be transformed into an incredible TV series—one that we would love to watch ourselves! The quality of their work and their involvement in the game’s artistic direction make Supamonks the ideal partner for this ambitious project.”
Lastly, Absolum launches on October 9 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam.
