As a seasoned horror movie aficionado who has spent countless sleepless nights huddled under the covers with only a flashlight for comfort, I can hardly contain my excitement at the prospect of two upcoming video games based on John Carpenter’s iconic masterpiece, Halloween. Having grown up on the chilling tales of Michael Myers and Laurie Strode, this news feels like a dream come true.
Michael Myers is set to appear on a gaming platform soon, as two video games inspired by John Carpenter’s iconic Halloween movie are being developed by Boss Team Games. Notably, the esteemed director himself is participating in the project. The original video game adaptation of Carpenter’s 1978 horror masterpiece was released for the Atari 2600 in 1983. Since then, characters from the movie have been integrated into other franchises like Dead by Daylight, but a genuine standalone game has never materialized until now, over four decades later.
According to IGN, the creators behind the Evil Dead game are also developing Halloween video games, with one utilizing Unreal Engine 5. These upcoming games promise an immersive experience allowing players to reenact scenes from the movie and assume roles of iconic characters from a timeless horror film. Details about the specifics of these games are currently confidential. It has been revealed, however, that John Carpenter will be deeply involved in at least one project, contributing his expertise. In a statement, Carpenter expressed his ambition to give players a frightening experience that will leave them feeling thoroughly spooked when the games are released.
Being a big gaming enthusiast, I’m excited to contribute to the resurrection of Michael Myers in this game, and my aim is to give you a good fright that will leave you laughing nervously!
Steve Harris, CEO of Boss Team Games, further echoed Carpenter’s sentiments, expressing that every member of their team is an ardent admirer of the franchise. He pledged to provide a unique, unparalleled experience that would appeal not only to gaming enthusiasts but also to movie fans alike.
“Every member of Boss Team Games adores horror, particularly Halloween, which holds a unique significance for all horror enthusiasts. The opportunity to collaborate with legendary characters such as Michael Myers and expand upon John Carpenter’s initial concept is an actual dream realized. Our team at Boss Games is ecstatic and grateful to be working alongside Malek Akkad and John Carpenter, aiming to provide a distinctly unique experience that will captivate both the film and video game fans of this iconic franchise.”
What Can We Expect from the Halloween Video Games?
As an avid fan, I eagerly anticipate the upcoming Halloween video games, given their likely similarities to the successful Boss Team Games’ release, Evil Dead: The Game, which debuted in 2022. This asymmetric multiplayer game offered both cooperative and player-versus-player modes, submerging players into the captivating world crafted by Sam Raimi. It sold an impressive 500,000 units and received mainly positive feedback for its striking visuals, immersive atmosphere, and smooth gameplay, despite some criticisms regarding the scarcity of maps and challenging game mechanics at times. Although live content support ended in 2023, the servers are still operational.
As a fan eagerly anticipating the upcoming Halloween games, it’s uncertain if they’ll maintain the cooperative and player-versus-player modes, but considering the success of their previous Evil Dead game, along with other horror classics like Friday the 13th and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, I have high hopes that they will. Regardless of the specifics, my excitement is palpable, and I can hardly wait to grab my console controller, ready to assume control over Myers and carve a bloody path through countless unsuspecting babysitters!
