Announced during the PlayStation State of Play conference earlier today, IllFonic, Gun Interactive, Compass International, and Further Front’s asymmetrical stealth horror game Halloween will launch September 8, 2026.
Based on the John Carpenter’s classic film, this release reimagines Halloween as an asymmetrical horror sandbox in Haddonfield, where players fight to survive – or kill.
For those taking control of a Civilian in Halloween, they’ll set out to rescue townsfolk, gather weapons, and call for help.
Feeling more slashy-slashy? Halloween also lets players become horror itself as Michael Myers. Taking on this mantle, players will lurk in the shadows and using terrify powers to strike others without warning.
Straight from State of Play, see Halloween for yourself with the gameplay and release date trailer below:

Jared Gerritzen, CCO of IllFonic, said the following:
“Our goal is to push the horror experience to the next level with single and multiplayer modes so players can get the most out of the game.
Whether they become the boogeyman or fight to protect Michael Myers’ victims, Halloween promises an unforgettable battle of fear and survival.”
Halloween will come out for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via both Steam and the Epic Games Store – one can learn more via its official website.

One can also join the conversation via its official Discord channel.
