Creepshow Game Sets Shockingly Distant 2026 Release

Horror fans, get ready to wait. The Creepshow video game, based on the hit AMC anthology series, isn't crawling out of the grave until August 2026. DreadXP and PHL Collective, working with AMC Global Media, just dropped a new trailer confirming the surprisingly distant release.

This isn't just another jump-scare fest. Creepshow is renowned for its blend of wicked scares, twisted humor, and iconic comic-book aesthetic. The game aims to capture that signature spirit with entirely new, self-contained tales of terror.

Brian Clarke, director of the acclaimed indie horror The Mortuary Assistant, leads creative direction. That's a huge vote of confidence for genre enthusiasts. Expect pulp-inspired visuals, a tone that balances camp with sharp wit, and endings that hit hard. Players will dive into stories where psychological dread meets black humor, often making death the least of their worries. We've had brief teases of a storyline involving Danny and friends uncovering sinister secrets and encountering "The Reader," a mysterious fortune-teller. Sounds like classic Creepshow fun, just... in a few years.
