Overview
- The first trailer confirms an asymmetrical 1v4 setup with one player as Michael Myers hunting three civilians alongside a standalone single-player mode.
- The story campaign is rooted in the 1978 film, placing players in Michael’s perspective from his escape at Smith’s Grove to his arrival in Haddonfield.
- Creative input comes from John Carpenter and franchise steward Malek Akkad, and Nick Castle reprised Michael via performance and motion capture for authenticity.
- Period-driven mechanics include cutting phone lines to block police calls, NPC townsfolk responses to danger, and the option to play matches offline with bots.
- The game targets PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC for a 2026 release, while Miramax Television continues developing a separate series based on the 1978 mythology.
