Warlock is an action game developed for classic systems, with a modern iteration in development. The contemporary version, tied to Dungeons and Dragons IP through Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, features actress Maggie Robertson voicing Tasha, a witch patron character, and explores complex themes around its female-driven narrative. Meanwhile, a separate top-down action slasher interpretation by developer Haplo is in the works for Commodore 64, drawing inspiration from classic fantasy shooter aesthetics. Despite Hasbro's recent pullback from its ambitious gaming expansion - following significant financial losses and project cancellations - Warlock remains among the greenlit titles moving forward, positioning it as part of the publisher's more focused portfolio alongside the Mass Effect-inspired Exodus.
