Low key I just want a real John wick game

[@乙乇尺ø]

Fr bro, why the hell haven't they made a John Wick game

[@Whywe.lovegames]

Who of these devs do you think should hop on that IP? Personally I think the Sifu devs or Rockstar would kill it.

[@dakotarock6422]

@@Whywe.lovegames Rockstar seems to be more concerned w/ their online gambling machine lately. Using all they learned from Max Payne mixed w/ RDR2 that would be insane tho!

WD1 is more accurate than WD Legion

[@czDante92]

I guess in general, but one of the playable characters, very rare recruitable NPC "Professional Hitman" (which was shown in this video) was clearly inspired by John Wick and his moveset, they even used John Wick soundtrack and bathouse location in the gameplay trailer. I'm not a big fan of WDL but I have to admit the combat encounters while playing as him were awesome.

[@69NCZ]

I'm agree with you

[@CinematicTactics]

I miss that game.

[@ZombfectedGaming349]

Watch Dogs Legion was actually very underrated when it came to its combat. I enjoyed the combat in the game so much both melee and ranged combat. It was very John Wick Styled.

[@Mr.Ditkovich.]

Splinter Cell Conviction was the first game I thought about even before Max Payne. I was going to suggest it until I saw it on the list.

[@dingansic6738]

Yeah im just using knives and mantis blade rn with sandevistan, alot more fun

[@dakotarock6422]

Even w/ a pistol cyberware build esp. with the Sandy or target builds you are basically john wick.

[@timalice-2833]

I liked the takedowns in Deus Ex human revolution and mankind divided, especially when Adam Jensen takes down 2 enemies at once

There is 1 long scene in JW4 inspired by Hotline Miami, so the context is there.

[@CydianGamingYT]

Seen plenty of gameplay in the style of John Wick's combat for these games, I approve the selections. 💯🤘

im gonna revisit all of these this week thanks for the inspo

[@MrR4INY]

Midnight Fight Express

[@jeff2793]

YES

[@joeykerr5517]

Great list! The MGS series is still my favorite, it's a shame that it will never be the same. At least we're getting Delta though. I really love tbat character in Legion too. It took me a while to get him though.

[@ryanwong167]

For me, Cyberpunk is the definitive John wick game. You can customize your build to just pistols and it feels awesome. It’s the cherry on top that Keanu is literally in the game

[@Sherryxgaming]

Only Hotline Miami, Hong Kong Massacre will make you feel like john wick

[@PatatexJok3rZ]

The brawler style Yakuza games really does make you feel like him just without the guns

[@Random_5tuff]

I love the fact that I've already played *every single* game on the list 💯💯💯

[@juanmenjivar28]

Playing splinter cell conviction rn. It is amazing!

[@pratyushsamal7569]

i have never played other splinter cell game othet than blacklist ..it felt like john wick to me

[@RAZIELNN]

The game Watch Dogs 1, where Aiden Pearce is featured, has a very John Wick style. Splinter Cell Blacklist would be great, not to mention the game that uses executions like Sniper Elite 5, but it doesn't have executions with a firearm in close combat. What I'm getting at is that if you want close combat like Gun-Combat or Gun-fu, that would be the John Wick style. I also recommend games like Assassin's Creed 3, which has some similarity in close combat. The game Sleeping Dogs has a bit of a more brutal style but not much Gun-fu. Let's not forget Modern Warfare, the executions are very much of this type. Without underestimating, the executions make the game more similar to Watch Dogs Legion, as you mentioned.

[@abyasin3619]

loved that vdo,pls make a 2nd part vdo

[@user-ox7vw3bz8m]

Doom Eternal and Hitman 3 make you truly feel like John Wick.

[@the-ironclad]

Hitman 3 feels more like Sam Fisher than John Wick. They didn’t have the animations for gun-fu takedowns

[@Retr0-jbd]

You forgot maximum action

[@Aids9898]

Hear me out but Hitman 3 makes you feel like Agent 47

[@jdpowell6405]

Nice video with some really good mentions.

[@GlobalGameExplorer]

Glad you enjoyed

[@Mrllama.]

My friend Pedro would also work here

[@SaulGoodman-ou1lv]

John Wick if he had schizophrenia

[@mac_19]

Hitman Absolution maybe the black sheep in a herd but it definitely feels like it'd play out the best if played in such manner

[@jonathancooper8589]

Days gone once you unlock most of the skills gives a bonus to chaining melee and ranged combat together. Especially if you are fighting a horde.

[@ciceromingori1980]

Some games you're missing from this list: Splinter Cell Blacklist (it's the ultimate John Wick experience) Sleeping Dogs Midnight Fight Express Neck break (aka Project Downfall) Trepang2 Kane & Lynch (specifically the night club mission) Sniper Ghost Warrior Contacts 1 and 2 Far Cry 5 Resident Evil 4 Remake Mafia 3 Fallout 4 (with mods) Grand Theft Auto IV (the best shootouts in the series) Hotline Miami The Hong Kong Massacre

[@bhabhutiji1169]

John Wick makes you feel like Sam Fisher

[@Tazreale]

Ah yes MGS Delta. They just redo Kojima's games at this point since the franchise has no more leg to stand on without him.

[@Sainte305]

A proper John Wick game, not strategy based like John Wick: Hex would be bitchin'. I really love the Hex game, also enjoyed the Peaky Blinders game, but being able to control John Wick with Sifu style hand-to-hand combat, mixed with Metal Gear/Call of Duty shooting, it would be a huge success.

[@wander7812]

To be fair, WatchDogs 1 combat is just a better version of Legion either way, so the critics weren't ALL that far off when Ubisoft already pulled better years ago...

[@kyokusanagi616]

Surprised Superhot VR didn’t get on the list. Ok so you can’t actually move around the environment but the gunplay and dodging bullets with as much style as possible allowed for some genuinely breathtaking gameplay. Side note - my brother and I used to refer to Superhot VR as John Wick lol

[@Ayuhtnis]

Anyone remember Stranglehold? That would definitely fit this list

[@sengiko]

RE4 Remake is missing here, I ALWAYS play the village map in mercenaries as Leon with "Shots Fired" and "John Wick Mode" in the background

[@eleventy70]

Theres a mod for Half Life Alyx called "Gunman Contracts" which is directly based off John Wick and it is EXCELLENT, the mod developer is actually releasing a full game with that same title soon as well. theres a trailer for it on youtube, basically showing off a level based on the stairs of the Sacré Coeur from John Wick 4.

[@antoniocox23]

I actually bought max Payne 3 and I haven't regretted it

[@Cryne95]

Other games that can make you feel like Baba Yaga would also be: -hotline miami -midnight fight express -Watch dogs 1 -Gta 4 and 5 -Sleeping dogs 2 -kane & linch series -Angry foots -superhot -hong kong massacre

[@SAMURAI00007]

there's a mod for legion where you can edit your character, i once made the utimate character mixing spy and hitman and few more perks it was fun

[@srteo0]

the only john wick-ish games here are max payne 3 and hitman 3

[@bachtruongson9408]

the combat of RDR2 if it was less sloppy would fit too

[@woozie8023]

What about splinter conviction tho? Sam got the CAR stance like john wick

[@user-ox7vw3bz8m]

True

[@Kazillion-Jillionaire]

Yeah

[@jahimuddin2306]

I love playing Hitman WoA like I am John Wick every now and then. Especially in Freelancer Mode.

[@insanity7091]

i'd also add mafia 3 to the list, linc is a war veteran taking down a whole city filled with mafia and the gameplay made me feel like john wick very often lol and also, he is a menace in the cutscenes, an absolute monster hahaha. sorry for my bad english

[@JoaoPLeao]

honorable mention to GTA IV shooting combat. It´s gorgeous

[@syedmuhammadtaqipervaiz7846]

Honestly if you replace Fisher with with John in Conviction, you won't be able to tell if the game was meant to be a John Wick game or not. Max Payne 3 is a close second but I think Splinter Cell Conviction is the closest one can get to Johm Wick game right now

[@pumpkinduck5532]

maybe its not john wick but ghostrunner really makes u feel like the main character

[@dylanpiercey4934]

I want a game set in the John wick universe it would be so sick

[@mayrosh5912]

what about Payday 2? I was able to make a RP build for John, and it even seems to play well, and together with the music of Karl Noren it goes just great!

[@LeonWick526]

How is RE4 remake not listed here? It is THE John Wick combat simulator.

[@lolmetaknight]

Madness Interactive, it's a flash game but still a game though.

[@Archemik99]

7:37 John Wick from China = John Wick from Wish lol

[@dafullclip]

Check out Midnight Fight Express. It fits right in among these titles.

[@TurkishQuandaledingle.]

Damn no ghost recon breakpoint or wildlands?

[@BerishaFatian]

I'd also add James Bond: Blood Stone, and Hong Kong Massacre.

[@liamn.7664]

bro we need a open world john wick video game

[@NotBruceWayne.]

I would add Trepang2 to the list. Crazy fps with slow motion and gore up to 10. Only 30 bucks.

[@muhammadandiadityawibowo8350]

Midnight figt express is a underrated game

[@SuperZippyzippy]

They need a Wick game!!

[@MarklMata]

Max Payne 3 is definitely the best interpretation of John wick

[@Sohyx]

im surprised Wanted is not on this list

[@Tazreale]

Alpha Protocol. You can be John Wick and Archer(from the cartoon series) at the same time if you want.

[@dakotarock6422]

I posted it as well! I still own that game!

[@glibchubik4090]

Nah bruh, love the game to death but the gunplay is NOT satisfying at all. Won't sell it to anyone by it, the strengths of the game are in other places

[@dakotarock6422]

@@glibchubik4090 For sure lol but the takedowns can still be fun w/ the espionage. Deus Ex is pretty awesome as well.

[@rangotheprude4287]

[@patrickeverett1894]

Should add Kayne and Lynch 2 to the list. Max Payne 3 my favorite.

[@joeallen3388]

SC:Blacklist is way more john wick than conviction just for the mark and execute CQC animations.

Midnight fight express would fit into the genre tbh

[@Joshua-zb2zp]

Bonelab, blade and sorcery, battle talent, that one half life alyx mod

[@TheGamingGranddad]

Stranglehold and Wanted(based loosely off the movie) are two more

[@rykelmodina2025]

[@Phantom._.twitch24]

There’s another game you’re missing, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Breakpoint.

[@vantattv]

While WDL is a ok game it only feels like a John Wick game when you have 2 specific characters (1 the spy, and 2 the hitman).

[@aubreytolefree5037]

Good choice but what about Division 2 and Ghost recon Wildland

[@The…mask2089]

I 100% watch dog legion and hitman and ready or not
