Great news, horror fans: John Carpenter’s Halloween is getting not one, but two video games, and the director himself is helping on one of them.
It might be the middle of summer, but you can never celebrate Halloween too early, can you? Alright, we’ll hold off on the seasonal celebrations for now, but there are a couple of reasons to be excited about Halloween, and that’s the announcement that two games based on the classic film series are coming from Evil Dead: The Game developer Boss Team Games. This comes from IGN, who shared that details are currently limited at the moment, but what is known as the both games are being developed “in conjunction with the producers of the Halloween franchise.”
Notably, one of them is being developed in Unreal Engine 5, and will include some input from the original film’s director John Carpenter. “As a huge gamer myself, I’m thrilled to help bring Michael Myers to life again in this game, and my hope is to scare you silly,” Carpenter said in a statement. As Carpenter notes, the film director loves to play video games, and even spoke about his Fallout 76 addiction a couple of years back – and he even shared that he thought Dead Space would make a great movie.
