10 Books That Would Make Great Video Games
2. The Hunger Games By Suzanne Collins
There was a time when The Hunger Games franchise could print money. With a highly successful film series that dominated the box office throughout its run, it seemed that a video game adaptation was inevitable, yet it never came.
The most significant current trend in the gaming landscape is the popularity of the battle royale genre. The adoration of this game type makes sense as it appeals to both casual and hardcore gamers alike. With titles such as Fortnite and PUBG, it's clear that the market potential for a game in this style is supremely profitable. Therefore it's the perfect time to adapt the book franchise that arguably brought the concept of the last person standing battle to the mainstream.
Concerning the content of the game, there wouldn't even need to be excessive amounts of effort placed into the concept. The developers would only need to create decent crafting, survival, and combat systems, then attach the brand name to the product, and a profitable creation is born.
The recent publication of prequel book The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes proves there is still a demand for stories from Panem. Now could be the perfect time to reignite the fire.
