Orwell's Animal Farm comes from the developer of Reigns, a 2016 strategy game published by Developer Digital that has spawned two additional sequels with a new gender in Reigns: Her Majesty and an IP crossover in Reigns: Game Of Thrones.

Orwell's work was recently referenced in Fortnite immediately after a very public spat between tech giants Apple and Google and video game conglomerate Epic Games. Apple banned Fortnite from the App Store, which prompted Epic to publish a rendition of Apple's 1984 Macintosh commercial called Nineteen Eighty-Fortnite.
