It’s Halloween night, 1978, the unsuspecting families of the quiet suburban town of Haddonfield are making holiday preparations, and evil has made its way home. Take The Shape of Evil as Michael Myers or save your neighbors as a Hero of Haddonfield in Halloween, the ultimate asymmetrical horror sandbox.
As Michael, players wear the mask, become the Boogeyman, and stalk innocent residents with relentless obsession. Utilizing a nightmarish array of abilities, Michael leverages shadows and stealth to satisfy his bloodthirst. This doesn’t mean Haddonfield is going down without a fight. Frightened townsfolk will call the local authorities and even fight back when threatened, incentivizing Michael to avoid detection. And for the first time ever, fans of the transformative original film will have the option to witness the haunting narrative events surrounding "The Night He Came Home" through the eyes of Michael Myers in a standalone singleplayer story mode.
As a Hero of Haddonfield, it’s your job to alert the residents of Haddonfield to the impending evil and help them escape before falling victim to Michael’s unyielding pursuit. In dynamic and ever-changing 1v4 asymmetrical multiplayer matches, hero players must arm themselves with everyday household items, weapons, and knowledge to combat an unpredictable and unkillable enemy. Convincing townsfolk and contacting the police will lead to increasingly powerful and thorough neighborhood patrols. To even the odds, you can command and equip NPCs with weapons to outsmart or even overpower The Shape, providing precious windows for escape.
This immersive horror sandbox is powered by Unreal Engine 5 to deliver engaging and dynamic gameplay systems, life-like NPCs, hauntingly realistic visuals, cinema-quality lighting, and endless scares for you and your friends. Asymmetrical horror comes home in Halloween.

buggy asl
i wanted to like this but i just couldnt find much of anything to be excited about. overall gameplay just feels dumb and clunky. this feels like a step backwards for this genre. if you really really want this, just wait for it to go on sale.
Okay. I am not going to be the guy that says this is GOTY or anything like that. There are definitely several issues with this game. 1. Challenge Tracking is bugged to ♥♥♥♥. 2. The A.I. is, 9 times out of 10, absolutely atrocious to guide around the map to help them escape 3. Several graphical issues that can ♥♥♥♥ with how the game itself is viewed. Among other things. These are the things that bug me the most right now... However.......... I think this game is really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fun. I can't help it. I love playing as a Civilian just because I love getting the ♥♥♥♥ scared out of me. This game excels at scaring the ♥♥♥♥ out of me. Despite its short length, I also really enjoy the story mode. I understand that it is essentially a two hour tutorial on how to play as Michael (people really should play through that the first time they even start the game if they plan on wanting to play as Michael most of the time.) I feel they could've benefited with adding a tutorial for civilians as well. I have seen way too many players going straight to finding an exit without even trying to save any of the other townsfolk. Like, homies, this isn't Friday the 13th :). That game was great. This one could be too if you play the objective lol. All that being said, I am enjoying my time on this game. I can't say that I have had 60 bucks worth of fun.... yet. I think if, and when, they fix all of the major issues that are in the game, a lot more people will come to love this game. Personally, I will have my 60 bucks worth of fun when all of the challenges and ♥♥♥♥ play out right. Then again, maybe I'm just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ something up... For right now, I would give it a solid 7.5 out of 10. If you are hesitant on buying the game it is completely understandable. I would say just wait until it goes on sale for 20 or something and give it a try for a few hours. But for now, it definitely could be worse than most have perceived it in my opinion
jogo mt bom, o problema msm do michael é ele ser lento no jogo, de resto é bem divertido para jogar com os amigos, 8/10
could've been better id give it a 5 out of 10. hopefully it'll get updates to fix its problems if the devs don't give up first
the best game
game isn't perfect but im just a sucker for myers and loved Friday the 13th. Enjoying everything so far hopefully there will be some optimization patches soon.
Esse jogo se encaixaria em jogos indies para jogar com os amigos, daqueles baratos, porque não faz sentido pagar o valor completo no jogo todo bugado. Tem interações que não aparecem de primeira, gráfico todo mal otimizado, além de um jogo mais PVE. A proposta do jogo é interessante, mas ainda falta algumas alterações na gameplay para ficar completo
