Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer A new video game based on Paramount’s “Paranormal Activity” horror franchise is slated to release in 2026 from DreadXP, the publisher of hit horror video game “The Mortuary Assistant.” Per DreadXP and Paramount Global, the “Paranormal Activity” video game “will bring the franchise’s groundbreaking found-footage style to horror enthusiasts in surprising new ways, immersing them in a story that expands upon the lore and world of the films.” The title, which will be available across multiple platforms, will include an advanced version of the “Haunt System” that will “dynamically alter the types and intensity of scares players will encounter based on their actions.” DreadXP co-director and creative director Brian Clarke (DarkStone Digital), the main developer on “The Mortuary Assistant,” is leading the development of the “Paranormal Activity” video game.
Beginning with the first “Paranormal Activity” film in 2007, the seven-film franchise from Blumhouse and Solana Films is credited with reimagining the “found footage” horror genre.
The films have grossed more than $800 million at the worldwide box office. “We are thrilled to work with Paramount Game Studios and to have the opportunity to bring the world of ‘Paranormal Activity’ to gamers everywhere,” Epic Pictures CEO and DreadXP producer Patrick Ewald said. “The films are steeped in rich lore and creative scares, and under the stewardship of creative director Brian Clarke, DreadXP’s ‘Paranormal Activity’ video game will honor those core tenets and offer horror fans one of our most terrifying games yet.” Clarke added: “The success of the ‘Paranormal Activity’ franchise epitomizes the power and reach of the horror genre.
