Blumhouse is diving into the gaming world, and it’s bringing a frightful lineup with it. Known for its chilling films, Blumhouse has decided that the silver screen isn’t quite scary enough and is venturing into the realm of horror games. And they’re not just dipping their toes in—they’re cannonballing with a whopping six games announced in just two minutes.
Let’s break down this terrifying treasure trove:
1. Crisol: Theater of Idols by Vermilla Studios
2. Grave Seasons from Perfect Garbage
3. Sleep Awake by Eyes Out
4. Fear the Spotlight from Cozy Game Pals
5. The Simulation by Playmestudio
6. Project C from the minds of Sam Barlow and Brandon Cronenberg
That’s quite a list from a newly minted game publisher! Each game promises a unique spin on horror, showcasing everything from psychological thrillers to good old-fashioned jump scares. Whether you’re into the eerie, the unsettling, or the downright terrifying, Blumhouse Games has something brewing for every kind of horror enthusiast.
Quantity and Quality
Now, let’s address the creepy elephant in the room: six games is a lot, especially for a company that’s just set up shop in the gaming industry. It’s an ambitious move but one that comes with risks. What if one—or more—of these games flops? Can Blumhouse Games handle a potential stumble in the dark? But with big names like Sam Barlow (known for ‘Her Story’) and Brandon Cronenberg (yes, the son of that Cronenberg) on board, their odds are looking pretty good.
The Waiting Game
Unfortunately, we don’t have release dates for any of these spine-chillers just yet. But keep your eyes peeled—we’ll be sure to update you as soon as there’s more news. In the meantime, it’s safe to say the future of horror gaming just got a whole lot more exciting.
And No, It’s Not About FNAF 2
For those of you hoping for news on the sequel to Five Nights at Freddy’s, sorry to disappoint – Blumhouse Games didn’t drop any hints about FNAF 2. With the lineup they’ve announced, there’s plenty to keep you occupied (and terrified) in the meantime.
