A Message From Executive Producer, Jonathan Knight
Thanks for visiting dantesinferno.com. We hope you’ll continue to do so as the site develops. We plan to add lots of updates and new information about the project as the team moves through production. Our goal is to share with you our passion for both the video game, and also for the great work of literature on which it is based.
The big idea behind the project was essentially to adapt part one of The Divine Comedy (commonly known as “Dante’s Inferno”) for a big, over-the-top, action adventure video game. The themes of death, sin, eternal damnation, and the medieval vision of Hell and its punishments made for extremely compelling game material. The location was perfect. And the core narrative of the poem—a guy pursuing his true love through the kingdoms of the afterlife—had all the makings of an epic story.
