DVD Store Owner by Day. Assassin by Night. Welcome to BLACKWOOD
AttritoM7 Productions Reveals Gritty, Action-Packed Noir Thriller for PC in 2026
Dhaka, Bangladesh - October 6. Step into the shadows of 2012 New York with BLACKWOOD, the cinematic third-person action-thriller from AttritoM7 Productions, publisher and developer of the acclaimed Zero Hour. Scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2026, BLACKWOOD plunges players into a brutal, unforgiving world where every night is a reckoning, and every choice shapes your fate.
By day, Anton Blackwood runs a small DVD store in Brooklyn, a place of quiet routines and fleeting moments of normalcy. Among the customers and shelves of old films, there is someone who sees a side of Anton that few others do: a woman who works in the store and notices the gentler side of him, the part he rarely shows to the world. Hang out in your apartment, manage the store, and experience the life of a man trying to maintain balance in a city that doesn't forgive weakness.
But when the shutters roll down and the streets go quiet, Anton heads to the basement, a private space where there's more than movies to rent. By night, he moves through the city as a deadly assassin, guided by the choreography of his favorite crime thrillers. Execute devastating melee takedowns, stage environmental kills, and survive high-octane on-foot and driving chases.
Anton thinks he's the protagonist in his story, but someone is always watching, directing from the shadows. In BLACKWOOD, style and brutality intertwine, and the story bends to both choice and consequence, where every fight is a reckoning, and every decision matters.
BLACKWOOD blends tight, close-quarters combat with slow-burn storytelling. From the basement of a quiet Brooklyn DVD store to the neon-lit streets of 2012 New York's underworld, every encounter is choreographed, every fight feels cinematic, and every choice has consequences. The quiet moments with the woman in the store remind Anton, and the player, that even in a world of darkness, glimpses of his humanity endure.
