One of the two Halloween games will reportedly be built in Epic Games' Unreal Engine 5 and will be made in collaboration with Carpenter. The visionary Horror director will be “intimately involved” with the project, the report said.

“As a huge gamer myself, I'm thrilled to help bring Michael Myers to life again in this game, and my hope is to scare you silly," the report quoted Carpenter as saying.

The two games will reportedly let players relive iconic moments from the film and play as popular characters. While the report did not mention how far the two games were along in their development cycles, it claimed that the Unreal Engine 5 project was still in its early development period.
