While we’re waiting on that fourth season of Shudder’s Creepshow, DreadXP and DarkStone Digital are making things easier (or harder, depending on your view) with their announcement of a video game adaptation based on Shudder’s hit television series!
DreadXP will partner with AMC Networks to produce the adaptation of the iconic horror anthology series, which is based on George R. Romero’s iconic 1982 film. DreadXP’s game is expected to land in 2024 across multiple platforms, with developer DarkStone Digital (creators of The Mortuary Assistant, which is slated to have a film adaptation) handling production.
“As massive fans of Creepshow, we are so excited to collaborate with AMC, Shudder, and Cartel Entertainment to bring that world to an interactive medium,” said Patrick Ewald, Managing Partner and Producer at DreadXP. Ted Hentskchke, Head of Dread XP Productions and Producer added, “The game will represent an expansion of our tremendously successful collaboration with Brian Clarke, whose expertise in crafting lore-rich narratives and clever scares makes him the perfect creative director for the project.”
And just like the films and TV show, DreadXP’s Creepshow video game will retain the anthology horror format, consisting of multiple self-contained horror stories that “cross gameplay genres and tone.” DreadXP obviously have experience with the format, given their Dread X Collection series. A full list of developers working on Creepshow will be announced at a later date.
