In the Mistborn series, Allomancy is a predominantly genetic ability that allows a person to metabolize ("burn") metals, ingested by the Allomancer, for magical powers that can enhance physical and mental capacities.
For more information on Allomancy see the Coppermind.
The adaptation must be official and legitimately released. Fan projects that do not licence Mistborn related trademarks do not count. Video games that were merely “inspired by” Mistborn do not count. Leaked games do not count.
I promise not to hold YES or NO shares for this question at the time that I answer this question.
1,000State of the Sanderson 2025 / Video Games:
I’ve started to get some real interest on the video game front, and I feel I’m finally getting established enough that we can make a Mistborn game happen. To that end, I’ve started talking to some AAA developers.
This is at Step One only, but it’s an encouraging One. These rights were tied up with the film rights for the last... oh, six~seven years, so I didn’t get to test the market on them until recently.
I’m trying to do things differently this time in an effort to retain control of my video game rights. I already have interest from some major players in the Video Game industry (who I like a lot). So if you are a decision maker at a AAA studio, or a major independent, and you’ve always wanted to make a Mistborn or Stormlight game... well, you would want to contact my reps now.
If you want to throw your hat in the ring, the person to talk to is Matt Sugarman at Weintraub Tobin in LA.
