Indie game 'Disco Elysium' will be turned into a TV show

For fans of the detective role-playing game Disco Elysium, you might be pleased to hear that the game will be turned into a television show. Developer ZA/UM and production house Dj2 Entertainment announced its plans to develop the series, but it's currently in its early stages without a distributor or writing team. Dj2, who brought Sonic the Hedgehog movie to life, is meeting with potential writers with plans to pitch the show later in the year. 

Of course, having these plans don't necessarily mean it'll happen soon. Disco Elysium does lend itself to become a good show with its story focusing on a detective trying to solve a crime that might provoke a civil war.
