Stern Pinball has unleashed its latest creation, plunging players into the heart-pounding universe of the world’s most formidable assassin in their new John Wick pinball game. Developed in partnership with Lionsgate, this thrilling machine brings the billion-dollar John Wick film franchise to life, boasting film-inspired mechanics, stunning artwork, and Stern’s revolutionary dynamic AI combat system. Pinball enthusiasts and John Wick fans alike can choose from Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition models of this exciting new game. The cinematic legacy of John Wick, brought to the screen by Thunder Road’s Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, alongside director Chad Stahelski of 87Eleven Entertainment, now explodes into the pinball arena.
Immerse Yourself in the Action-Packed John Wick Universe
In Stern Pinball’s John Wick pinball experience, you become John Wick, navigating his perilous world and battling to outrun his past. Players will find themselves in the midst of high-octane car chases and exhilarating drifts across a playfield meticulously designed with iconic locations from the films. Spot recognizable landmarks such as the legendary New York Continental Hotel and the electrifying Red Circle Club, all set against a dramatic, edge-lit New York City skyline. Unleash John Wick‘s arsenal by opening his weapons crate, revealing a hidden path to an array of powerful weaponry. Strategically utilize the sculpted Blood Oath Marker, but be warned – misuse comes with consequences. Your mission as John Wick is to survive relentless waves of assassins, execute assignments from the enigmatic Factions of the High Table, and ultimately confront John Wick’s ultimate “Special Assignment!”
Experience the Revolutionary AI Combat System
The John Wick pinball machine elevates gameplay with Stern’s groundbreaking dynamic AI combat system, a game-changer that mirrors the frenetic action sequences of the beloved films. This innovative system employs a primitive video game AI to govern enemy lights across the playfield, a significant leap from traditional pinball machines where lights were solely dictated by player actions, timers, and random number generation. In this dynamic combat environment, enemy icons react intelligently to player behavior, illuminating strategically to challenge you at every turn. These digital adversaries move with tactical awareness, adapting to your objectives and ensuring a unique and demanding experience in every game session. Adding another layer of immersion, a new action video player dynamically reflects your in-game triumphs – vanquish three enemies, and you’ll witness iconic video clips of John Wick mirroring your feat on screen!
A Symphony of Sight and Sound, Featuring Iconic Talent
The John Wick pinball game is not just about innovative gameplay; it’s an audiovisual masterpiece. High-fidelity film and audio assets are seamlessly woven into the game, complemented by custom narration from the acclaimed actor Ian McShane, reprising his role as Winston. Adding to the auditory experience is an original score composed by the legendary Charlie Benante of Anthrax and Pantera fame, ensuring an adrenaline-pumping soundtrack to every game. For collectors and die-hard fans, the Limited Edition models will feature an exclusive franchise artifact: pieces of John Wick’s iconic suits, directly from Lionsgate production. Visually, the games are adorned with original neo-noir style artwork crafted by the celebrated artist Randy Martinez, perfectly capturing the atmosphere of the John Wick universe.
