Goosebumps: Dead of Night Announced

R.L. Stine's popular children's horror book series Goosebumps is coming to consoles in video game form. Cosmic Forces is partnering with Sony Pictures and Scholastic to create Goosebumps: Dead of Night, which will be released this Summer for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch. As you can see in the official announcement trailer above, Goosebumps: Dead of Night is a first-person survival horror game, and its premise involves known Goosebumps villain Slappy the Dummy stealing classic pages from the book series, resulting in a horde of monsters setting out to look for you. Expect puzzle solving and the occasional jump-scare, and actor Jack Black, who is no stranger to video games (Brutal Legend), voices RL Stine. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=goosebumps-dead-of-night-screenshots&captions=true"] Cosmic Forces calls Dead of Night a "reimagining" of their mobile VR game, Goosebumps: Night of Scares. This console version adds improved graphics, additional gameplay chapters, new monsters, and expanded Stine House, improved AI, and more. Check out IGN's reviews of Goosebumps' "scary-good" 2015 film adaptation, along with the "slapdash" 2018 sequel, Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween.
