Two new games based on John Carpenter's Halloween franchise are in the works, and the iconic horror director himself is involved in at l♍east one of them.
Per , the two as-yet untitled Halloween games are both in development at Boss Team Games, the publisher behind one of my favo✨rite asymmetrical horror games, the ill-fated Evil Dead: The Game. Boss Team announced that it had ceased development on Evil Dead: The Game and canceled the Switch version a𝓀ltogether despite largely positive reception in September 2023, and now we know what it's up to next.
, one of them is titled Halloween: The Game. This would follow the naming convention popularized by asymmetrical horror games like Friday the 13th: The Game, Evil Dead: The Game, and Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game and suggest it'll be a multiplayer adaptation of the Halloween series, but that hasn't been confirmed.We do know one of the new Halloween games is being developed in Unreal Engine 5, and it's that one that Carpenter is "intimately involved" with. In a statement, the horror maestro said, "As a huge gamer mysel♐f, I’m thrilled to help bring Michael Myers to life again in this game, 🃏and my hope is to scare you silly."
According to a press r💖elease, the games will allow players to "relive moments from the film and play as classic characters from one of the most iconic and important horror films of all time."
We don't know anything else about the new Halloween games at this point, but they'll be the first new video game adaptations of the classic horror franchise since the 1983 Atari 2600 game, copies of which were famously sold without mass-produced labels and instead simpl🌱y featured pieces of tape with 'Halloween' seemingly hand-written in marker.
CEO Steve Harris said in the official press releas꧂e that "everyone at Boss Team Games are huge fans of horror and Halloween obviously holds a special place in the hearts of all horror fans. Getting to work with iconic characters like Michael Myers and build on John Carpenter’s original vision is literally a dream come true. Everyone at Boss Team is thrilled and honored to be working with Malek Akkad and John Carpenter to deliver a one-oꦺf-a-kind experience that fans of the movie and video games will love."

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant,🐲 Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
