<p>Yet another video game is headed to the big-screen. Developer Campo Santo has reached a deal with Hollywood production company Good Universe to make a<a href="http://ift.tt/1u2E6dN"> Firewatch</a> movie and more.</p>
<p>According to <a rel="nofollow" href="http://ift.tt/2d1am3f">The Hollywood Reporter</a>, the two companies are making &quot;projects that can bridge both the video game and feature film worlds.&quot; The first effort is a movie version of Firewatch, which came out in February on <a href="http://ift.tt/1e8dJIN">PC</a> and <a href="http://ift.tt/1lXIW8W">PlayStation 4</a>, before landing on <a href="http://ift.tt/1gvajmS">Xbox One</a> earlier this month. It was Campo Santo&#8217;s first title and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://ift.tt/1W7reQh">reviews for the first-person adventure game were positive across the board</a>.</p>

<p>The game, which sees players adventuring through 1989 Wyoming as part of a mysterious story, features the voices of Cissy Jones (<em>The Walking Dead</em>) and Rich Sommer (<em>Mad Men</em>). Whether or not any of the actors from the game will be involved in the movie remains to be seen.</p>
<p>As of yet, there is no director or actors attached to the project, nor was there any mention of a release date. It sounds like it is very much early days for the Firewatch movie.</p>
<p>&quot;When we met Good Universe we were floored by how they recognize, cultivate, and produce incredible stories,&quot; Campo Santo founder Sean Vanaman told THR. &quot;It&#8217;s rare you meet another group that shares so many of your values and makes the process of creating things even more exciting. We can&#8217;t wait to see what we make together.&quot;</p>
<p>Good Universe also produced the new horror movie <em>Don&#8217;t Breathe </em>and <em>Last Vegas</em>. </p>
<p><a href="http://ift.tt/1u2E6dN">GameSpot&#8217;s Firewatch review</a> scored the game a 7/10.</p>
<p>&quot;Its world is captivating, its design is clever, and its characters are among the most well-written in gaming,&quot; reviewer Scott Butterworth said. &quot;Though it might sound counterintuitive, the plot is in many ways secondary to the relationship you build between Henry and Delilah, and that portion of the game is truly inspired. I&#8217;ve already returned to Firewatch for a calming walk in the woods; I imagine I&#8217;ll go back again soon to visit with Henry and Delilah.&quot;</p>
<p>The next high-profile video game movie is <em>Assassin&#8217;s Creed</em>, which comes out in December. Earlier today, director Justin Kurzel <a href="http://ift.tt/2dmKytT">shared some new details about it</a>.</p>
