The most expensive film based on a game, with a cost of $897 million, Warpath was released on January, 27th 2022 to a surprise box-office success, grossing $549 million against a budget of $459 million. The film received largely positive reviews, with praise for its direction, Stewart's performance, action sequences, screenplay, editing, the emotional weight of the story, tone, faithfulness to its source game, and villains. Warpath was nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Cinematography, and won an Academy Award for Best Actress for Stewart, and is regarded as one of the best films of its decade and one of the greatest war films of all time. It was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by Liberty of Congress for being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant" four months after its release. A sequel is in development, with Stewart set to reprise her leading role.
