Comments (0) | Views (850)

There have been countless video games inspiring popular TV series. If you're a gaming lover and want to see what games' movie adaptations look like, you're in the right place.

Here, we're going to list popular games that have inspired many TV series:

The Witcher
Netflix's The Witcher has remained one of the highest-rated original series on IMDB. Originally started as a book series, The Witcher was adapted into a role-playing video game, which subsequently inspired the famous TV series.
The Witcher follows Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill), who is destined to meet Yennefer of Vengerberg (Anya Chalotra) and Ciri (Freya Allan), the crown princess of Cintra. While season 1 followed a "monster of the week" format and random nudity, season 2 was more focused on storytelling. Cavill departed the series at the end of season 3 and has been replaced by Liam Hemsworth.

Mass Effect
Mass Effect is a popular action role-playing game inspired by an upcoming TV series, giving fans an amazingly rich and detailed experience of the universe. The space RPG revolves around the player-created Commander Shepard during human exploration.
Besides Commander Shepherd, there are various different races bringing the universe against mutual foes. Amazon seems highly enthusiastic about adapting Mass Effect. However, there is no official statement regarding when the series will be launched. Once released, you can watch Amazon Prime from anywhere with these simple steps for your favorite TV series.

Sonic Prime
Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the most loved video game characters ever. Following many successful movie and TV adaptations, the character is back with Sonic Prime. Sonic Prime is Netflix's animated TV show featuring a whole new cast and introducing the famous blue hedgehog.

The show begins with the titular Sonic, who goes head-to-head with his nemesis, Dr. Eggman (Brian Drummond). Soon, our hedgehog hero zips around with his friends, joining the fun. Eventually, the fight triggers an unexpected narrative meant to upend the world of the show's characters.

Life Is Strange
Life is Strange is an award-winning adventure game introduced by Dontnod Entertainment. In 2021, Hulu - an American TV and movie streaming platform - announced that Shawn Mendes would produce a TV series based on the video game. The involvement of the musician ensures that the Life Is Strange series has amazing and best-licensed soundtracks. In comparison to other stories, Life Is Strange is a relatively straightforward adaptation from game to TV.

The story revolves around Max Caulfield, who is a high-school senior. Her life changes when she discovers her hidden power to rewind time while serving her bestie, Chloe Price. The duo finds themselves investigating and solving the mysterious disappearance of a classmate.

The Fallout
The next on our list is the highly anticipated TV series titled "The Fallout." The show is inspired by one of the best-selling global video games, Fallout, and it's set 200 years after the apocalypse.
In the show, Ella Purnell plays Lucy, an optimistic Vault Dweller who is tested for her idealistic nature when their loved ones are harmed.

In the show, Aaron Moten plays Maximus, a young soldier with a secret tragic past while serving a militaristic faction called Brotherhood of Steel. Maximus would do anything to further the Brotherhood's mission of bringing law and order to the Wasteland. As per Amazon, the show will be premiered exclusively on April 12, 2024, in 200+ countries worldwide.

Pokémon Horizons
Did you know the first Pokémon game launched in 1996? Since then, the video game franchise has continuously been getting stronger year by year. The game has been adapted into so many movies and TV shows, all due to its immense popularity.

Pokémon Horizons, the recent series launched on April 14, 2023, features new protagonists and adventures. The series premiered in Japan and was distributed by Netflix in the USA. Dual protagonists Liko and Roy join with a group of adventurers titled the Rising Volt Tacklers. The group set out to explore the Pokémon world, visiting all places introduced in the core series, from Kanto to Paldea.
It's the first time in Pokémon history that Pokémon Horizons will feature all new characters and a more linear story with many ties to previous anime series.
So, as new games join the gaming world, you can expect more fun and interesting TV series adaptations in the future. Stay tuned.
