It’s not because Blumhouse Games just launched Blumhouse Productions going to stop ogling ideas from the video game side. After launching a project to adapt Five Nights at Freddy’s With creator Scott Cawthon, it’s another licensed video game franchise that has just fallen into the hands of the famous horror company.
It is Dead by Daylightan asymmetrical horror game inviting you to control either armed survivors equipped with traps, or a bloodthirsty killer who must eliminate them all, in a nightmarish world ruled by the strange and mysterious Entity. With more than 50 million players in 6 years, the franchise has become famous as much for its tense games and its rich universe as for its partnerships with major gaming and horror film licenses, but hard to imagine that this last point will be highlighted on the big screen.
So she will soon be adapted into a film by Blumhouse, Atomic Monster (the company of James Wan, pillar of modern horror in cinema), and Behavior Interactive, who will keep an eye on her baby. A director and a screenwriter are currently being sought, a sign that we will have to be patient before seeing the project materialize. And you know the song: until filming begins (and again), there’s no guarantee that production will definitely materialize.
“We couldn’t be happier to work with Jason Blum and James Wan, two giants of the horror film industry, to further expand the universe of Dead by Daylight,” said Stephen Mulrooney, Executive Vice President from Behavior Interactive. “Atomic Monster and Blumhouse are the perfect partners to ensure Dead by Daylight’s killer entrance to the big screen. »
“With Dead by Daylight, the team at Behavior have created a love letter to the world of horror, building an incredible environment teeming with atmosphere and terrifying villains – perfect for a chilling film adaptation,” adds James Wan, founder and CEO of Atomic Monster. “We’re big fans of the game at Atomic Monster, and we’re thrilled to team up with Blumhouse to bring this terrifyingly visceral world to the big screen. »
“There are so many Dead by Daylight fans out there who think it’s imperative that we find someone who appreciates and loves the world as much as we do, to help us bring the game to the big screen,” said Jason Blum. , founder and CEO of Blumhouse. “We know our partners at Behavior and Atomic Monster will help us bring the best version of this game to life.”
The film Dead by Daylight is therefore likely to be talked about in the coming years, but until it takes shape, the video game is available from €19.80 on Amazon.co.uk.
