We are actively rolling out our first Early Access Hotfix for Halloween: The Game across all platforms. This hotfix brings numerous crash fixes alongside a small list of additional fixes.
More details here: https://t.co/YDEs26Izf8
Great start to the game. Gameplay is very fun and the foundation is great. But bugs and performance were not the best. But those can be fixed with time. What is important is the fun factor in the gameplay which is definitely very fun.
Thanks to all the players who have joined us in Haddonfield so far during our Early Access launch for Halloween: The Game.
Earlier today, our team deployed fixes for singleplayer challenges and VOIP and continues to monitor player feedback.
Later tomorrow, we'll be pushing an update that introduces additional fixes for various crashes, an issue preventing Michael's downed minigame from displaying as intended, and game resolution not displaying correctly on Xbox Series S while in Performance Mode.
Players can also look forward to our Day One Patch on 9/8/2026, which will bring further fixes and improvements. We're just getting started.
Turn on the lights, lock your doors, and check your closets. The Boogeyman is coming...
Witness the pure, unstoppable evil of Michael Myers in Halloween: The Game, a singleplayer and multiplayer horror experience releasing on September 8, 2026.
Launch day and his nightmarish return are nearly upon us: https://t.co/rDm5fFSGs0

To increase their odds of survival against the unrelenting Boogeyman, Civilian characters can roll for Perk Cards to craft their very own Perk Decks.
These Perk Cards can then be rolled in-game to provide beneficial modifiers that ensure no two matches of Halloween: The Game play out the same.
Each Civilian carries a series of unique stats, including Athleticism, Personality, Resourcefulness, and Capability, as well as signature Traits, which provide a variety of opportunities to find the perfect character for your preferred playstyle.
Halloween: The Game was designed to offer rich player progression and endlessly satisfying rewards.
Here's what players can expect from progression and customization in this asymmetrical horror experience: https://t.co/zZ8YqJvoH1

A statement regarding Halloween: The Game on PS5 in Japan:
Halloween: The Game will release in Japan as scheduled on Wednesday, September 9, on XBOX and PC. Unfortunately, our rating for PlayStation has been cancelled in Japan due to our inability to obtain a domestic rating from CERO (Computer Entertainment Rating Organization) for the title's visceral violence and nudity.
We have determined that regulating the content to achieve compliance would significantly compromise the worldview of the original film, and would also prevent us from providing the gameplay experience that players expect.
Refunds are scheduled to be processed by the platform for players who pre-ordered the PS5 version. Please direct any inquiries regarding those details to the platform. Digital versions of Halloween: The Game will still be available on Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Epic Games Store and will be released in Japan on Wednesday, September 9, 2026.

このたび、9月9日(水)発売予定の『ハロウィン ザ・ゲーム』について、CEROによる日本国内レーティングを取得できなかったため、日本国内でのPS5版の発売を中止することと致しました。
適合を目指して表現を規制すると原作映画の世界観が大きく損なわれてしまうこと、またゲーム性についてもプレイヤーが期待する体験を提供できなくなると判断いたしました。
PS5版を予約済みの方には、プラットフォーム側から返金予定となっておりますので詳細に関してはそちらまでお問い合わせください。
なお、その他のダウンロード版(Xbox Series X / Steam /Epic Games Store)は予定通り2026年9月9日(水)に日本国内で発売いたします。
