DreadXP (“The Mortuary Assistant”) is reportedly working on a new video game based on Paramount and Blumhouse’s “Paranormal Activity” horror film franchise.
The game aims to bring the franchise’s found-footage style to horror enthusiasts in “surprising new ways, immersing them in a story that expands upon the lore and world of the films.”
The title boasts the ‘Haunt System’ which dynamically alters the types and intensity of scares players will encounter based on their actions.
Epic Pictures CEO and DreadXP producer Patrick Ewald says in a statement:
“We are thrilled to work with Paramount Game Studios and to have the opportunity to bring the world of ‘Paranormal Activity’ to gamers everywhere. The films are steeped in rich lore and creative scares, and under the stewardship of creative director Brian Clarke, DreadXP’s ‘Paranormal Activity’ video game will honor those core tenets and offer horror fans one of our most terrifying games yet.”
The seven-film-strong franchise began in 2007 and stirred success in the ‘found footage’ horror genre. The films to date have grossed more than $800 million at the worldwide box office.
The game will be available across multiple platforms and is slated to release in 2026.
