16-Bit Platformers Based On Halloween And Evil Dead Announced For Switch

And they'll be here in time for Halloween.

Yesterday, Boss Team Games teased that it was making two games based on the classic horror movie franchise Halloween, with the original director John Carpenter "intimately involved" in the project. And we've got a few more details on one of those games, including a second game that picks up another horror movie favourite and a release date.

Courtesy of IGN, we now know that the first Halloween game will launch alongside a second game based on the Starz series Ash vs Evil Dead, which is a sequel to Sam Raimi's Evil Dead franchise. Developed by WayForward, the duo are part of the RetroRealms series, and both are beautiful-looking 16-bit platformers. Both games are coming out on 18th October 2024 and will be priced at $24.99 USD, or you can snag a "Double Feature" edition for $49.99 USD.
