Although the Halloween horror film franchise is now forty-five years old, only one game based on the films has been released in all that time, and that was back in 1983. In the near future, however, that will change.
American studio Boss Team Games, known for the asymmetrical online action game Evil Dead: The Game released in 2022, through the portal IGN announced the development of two games based on Halloween.
Both projects are being created in collaboration with the producers of Halloween, and will allow users to relive iconic moments from the film (probably the original) and play as classic characters from the franchise.
One of the two games is being developed on Unreal Engine 5 with the participation of the director of the first Halloween, John Carpenter: “As an avid gamer, I am excited to bring Michael Myers to life in this game. I hope it scares the crap out of you.”
Judging by the poster that accompanied the announcement (attached above) and official websiteone of the projects is called Halloween: The Game. It can be assumed that it will offer a similar gaming experience to Evil Dead: The Game.
According to Boss Team Games CEO Steve Harris, the team is committed to delivering a unique product that will appeal to fans of both the original film and video game enthusiasts.
The Halloween franchise follows the atrocities of Michael Myers, a serial killer who escaped from a mental institution and terrorizes the residents of the fictional town of Haddonfield during the Halloween celebration.
