During the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted showcase, IllFonic and Gun Interactive revealed the first in-game map, Haddonfield Heights, for next year’s asymmetrical stealth horror title Halloween: The Video Game. Nestled beneath the iconic Haddonfield water tower, the map brings players deep into the heart of the town, featuring the stereotypical warm, tight-knit neighborhood that’s ripe for Michael Myers to unleash his brand of terror.
Featuring a cluster of charming homes, the game’s first map radiates small-town comfort by day, but becomes a maze of dread at night. As a Civilian, you’ll have plenty of front yards and winding side streets to explore, while also running for your life as Myers bears down on you.
“This neighborhood allowed us to reimage the tension of Haddonfield in a way that feels both intimate and terrifying,” explains Jordan Mathewson, Design Director at IllFonic. “We wanted players to feel the comfort of the neighborhood they recognize from the film right before we turn it into panic. Every hedge, hallway, and backyard was built to heighten suspense and reward clever play, whether you’re hunting or being hunted.”
In Halloween: The Video Game, players can take the role of either a desperate Civilian fighting to protect the townsfolk, or The Shape himself, Michael Myers. As a Civilian, you’ll be scavenging for supplies, guiding residents to safety, and locating a phone to call the police before the time runs out. As Myers, you’ll be prowling the shadows and make use of his special abilities, like Shape Jump, to traverse through the neighborhood unseen and strike without warning.
Halloween: The Video Game will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on September 8, 2026.
