Wreck League

Client: nWay
Medium: Video Game Narrative + Comic Series
Roles: Narrative Director, Writer

nWay — the studio behind major real-time multiplayer titles such as Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid, Power Rangers: Legacy Wars, and Battlepalooza — sought a narrative lead to build the entire backstory and lore foundation for their newest game, Wreck League, a competitive mech-building combat title developed in partnership with Animoca Brands. They needed someone who could define the game’s world, factions, characters, motivations, and narrative logic, and then extend that story into a connected comic series.
Morgan was hired to write and narrative-direct the full backstory of Wreck League, establishing its lore, mythology, tone, and character arcs from the ground up. Working closely with nWay’s internal creative team, Morgan refined the game’s conceptual direction, shaped the world’s narrative rules, and developed compelling storylines for both existing characters and brand-new ones created specifically for the franchise. Morgan also scripted a companion comic book series designed to expand the universe and engage fans outside the game itself.
- Developed the complete narrative foundation for Wreck League, including backstory, worldbuilding, factions, and thematic logic.
- Wrote character histories, motivations, interpersonal dynamics, and overarching story arcs.
- Collaborated with designers, producers, and art teams to ensure narrative cohesion with gameplay systems and mech-building mechanics.
- Scripted the peripheral Wreck League comic series, translating in-game concepts into narrative-driven storytelling.
- Refined the creative team’s vision and ensured all characters — new and legacy — had strong, engaging narrative identities.
- Provided narrative documentation, bible materials, and story references for cross-departmental use.
