Step into the world of BLACKWOOD, a gritty third-person action thriller that blends smooth, responsive combat with cinematic storytelling.
You play as a seemingly ordinary store owner, managing your small DVD shop in an authentic recreation of New York, 2012. But when night falls, you descend into the city’s underworld as a contract killer, caught between survival, morality, and a past that refuses to stay buried.
FIGHT YOUR WAY THROUGH THE CITY
Gunplay is fast, stylish, and unforgiving — with fluid movement options like dives, rolls, and slides to keep the action relentless. Every encounter feels cinematic yet responsive, giving you the freedom to create your own moments of chaos.
MASTER BRUTAL TAKEDOWNS
BLACKWOOD’s signature mechanic: countless contextual takedowns. From one-on-one hand-to-hand executions to using the environment around you, every fight is an opportunity to end your enemies with precision and style. Grounded, weighty, and satisfying to master.
A DOUBLE LIFE TO BALANCE
Your store is more than just a front — it’s where you live, decorate, and roleplay a “normal” existence. Buy and sell DVDs, change outfits, interact with your apartment, and explore small RPG elements that make your dual identity feel tangible. The contrast between day and night defines the world and the choices you make.
CINEMATIC STORYTELLING
With Marvel-style narrative flair, BLACKWOOD introduces a cast of flawed, human characters navigating a violent city full of secrets. Every ad, tattoo, and poster tells a story. Every mission pulls you deeper into a web of conspiracies and consequences.
STORE MANAGEMENT
Take control of your DVD shop and decide how hands on you want to be. Restock shelves, organize inventory, set prices, and jump in at the counter to keep profits high. Let it run on autopilot and you will get by, manage it smartly and you can watch it turn into a powerful source of income.
