This $13,000 John Wick Pinball Table Comes With A Piece Of His Suit
Just when you'd thought you'd seen the last of John Wick, the world's deadliest assassin is preparing to return in a brand-new pinball game. Yeah, we're thinking he's back. Developed and produced by Stern Pinball, this new table will include film-inspired mechanical features and artwork, as well as a "dynamic" AI combat system to replicate Wick's talent for mowing down disposable henchmen.
Stern says that players will follow John Wick as he fights to escape his past, and the table incorporates models and artwork inspired by iconic locations like the New York Continental Hotel and the Red Circle Club. The AI combat system controls the enemy lights on the playfield, allowing for enemy icons to respond to player behavior and illuminate dynamically around the playfield to provide a more challenging experience. All lights are controlled by player actions, timers, and random number generations, so this software is designed to keep players on their toes as enemies "move tactically" to counter your pinball wizardry.
Another neat touch is that every three enemies you eliminate will result in footage of Wick in action being broadcast on a video player. Ian McShane--who played the Continental Hotel manager Winston in the films--will also provide custom narration and the table has an original score composed by Charlie Benante of Anthrax and Pantera fame.
