The world of multiplayer horror has been turned upside down since 2016, when Dead by Daylight was released. Since then, Behaviour Interactive's project has attracted millions of players, thanks in part to partnerships with various licenses that have allowed fans around the world to be able to play with their favorite horror characters, such as Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, Michael Myers and Ghost Face.
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:
But not all licensed video games have been as successful, in fact recently the Ghostbusters one, the Evil Dead one, whose support has just been announced to be ending, and the Predator one, though the latter license is expected to make an appearance in Dead by Daylight soon after Alien:
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 thanks to Supermassive Games, the developers behind Until Dawn, The Quarry, and the Dark Pictures Anthology.
Nothing is confirmed as of yet, but thanks to TheTipster, an insider who has a good record of leaks that have since turned out to be correct, Supermassive Games is at work on a video game based on the Scream license.
As a reminder, Supermassive is also at work with Behaviour Interactive on a multiplayer spin-off game of Dead by Daylight:
After the development of a new Jason Voorhees game and the newly released Leatherface game, it would be really nice for fans of iconic 80s horror characters to also have a video game featuring Ghost Face and thus based on the Scream license.
For now there is nothing confirmed yet, but if there are further updates of course I will update you through these pages.
