With the success of Dead by Daylight then, many companies have tried to replicate the same success by putting to work on asymmetrical multiplayer horror games that, however, to date have never managed to replicate even half of its success.
A few years ago, therefore, the first licensed game based precisely on the asymmetrical horror multiplayer genre was released, namely Friday the 13th, which, however, due to serious balancing problems and issues that arose with the license, was unfortunately abandoned, and will also be removed from sale at the end of the year:
But there is also good news, because a new game based on the Jason Voorhees license is in development:
The team that worked on the Friday the 13th game however has recently released a new licensed product, this time based on Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which instead looks much more promising and already played by millions of players:
After the release of a Jason Voorhees licensed video game (and another in development), and a Leatherface game, fans have long expressed another license that could lend itself nicely to a multiplayer horror game, namely Scream, and thus Ghost Face.
And apparently this appears to be becoming a reality:
But the news did not end there! Because apparently even the Halloween license holders would like Michael Myers to get a video game:
But there is more, in fact thanks to insider TheTipster it has been discovered that a video game based on the Saw license is also on the way:

But the news doesn't end there, because a video game based on Barbarian, a 2022 film directed by Zach Cregger, is also on the way.
The video game, which does not yet have a release date, will be based on the film's creatures and characters, and is being developed for PC and consoles as a narrative experience by Diversion3 Entertainment, which has already worked on the Evil Dead and Friday the 13th adaptations, in association with New Regency Pictures.
"We are very excited to work with the team at New Regency to expand on the settings, characters and creatures of Barbarian," said Tim Hesse, executive producer at Diversion3 Entertainment. "The film did a magnificent job not only scaring audiences with its unexpected and terrifying twists and turns, but also creating strong characters thrown into terrifying situations. We look forward to exploring these themes further in the game."
Yariv Milchan, president and CEO of New Regency Pictures, added, "Expanding the 'Barbarian' universe into video games offers a new way to capture the horror that made the film such a success. We are excited to partner with the incredibly talented team at Diversion3 Entertainment to immerse new and existing fans in this world.''
About the synopsis of the film:
Arriving in Detroit for an interview, a young woman books a house for rent. But she arrives late in the evening and discovers that the house has been booked twice and a strange man is already there. Against her better judgment, she decides to spend the evening there.
