Dan Houser’s Absurd Ventures Announces Exciting New Projects
Dan Houser’s innovative company, Absurd Ventures, is generating buzz with upcoming announcements for an animated series and an engaging action-comedy adventure game.
Legacy at Rockstar Games
Having devoted over two decades to Rockstar Games, Houser significantly influenced the creative visions behind the immensely successful Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption franchises. These popular titles have achieved astounding global sales of over 550 million copies, equating to approximately $33 billion in revenue. After parting ways with Rockstar in 2020, Houser embarked on new ventures.
Upcoming Projects: Animation and Gaming
Absurd Ventures is set to unveil its unique universe through various animation projects slated for release later this year. Additionally, a fresh story-driven action-comedy adventure game situated within the ”Absurdaverse” is currently under development at their studios.
At present, specific details remain scarce regarding these initiatives. However, it is clear that Absurd Ventures aims to carve out original intellectual properties (IP) across multiple entertainment verticals such as video games, animated shows or films, live-action productions, podcasts fostering fictional narratives, literature including novels and comic books.
Diverse Creative Portfolio
The portfolio of Absurd Ventures includes intriguing original creations like the sci-fi thriller titled A Better Paradise and the crime narrative universe called American Caper. Following a strategy reminiscent of Robert Kirkman’s approach with The Walking Dead franchise—exploring concepts across various mediums—Houser’s company aims to experiment widely with creative ideas.
The firm has already launched a successful audio fiction series set in the A Better Paradise universe and plans to introduce an American Caper comic series alongside several animation projects related to Absurdaverse by 2025. Located in Santa Monica but also maintaining additional offices in Marin County California, Abnormal Ventures continues its quest for innovation under Houser’s visionary leadership.
