The latest trailer for Illfonic’s Halloween, an upcoming asymmetrical multiplayer horror game of the iconic film franchise, offers a flythrough tour of one of the game’s maps: Haddonfield Heights.
Halloween Haddonfield Heights Map Trailer
The recent PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted presentation offered fans a fresh peek at a handful of exciting projects coming to PCs in the next year, and beyond. In addition to the announcement trailer for games like Lunar Strike, the showcase also shared a brand new map trailer for Illfonic’s upcoming Halloween game.
Fans of the horror franchise and the asymmetrical multiplayer genre still have a long wait before the game arrives in September 2026, but the new map reveal trailer sheds some fresh light on what sort of experience and vibes the game will bring.
According to the press release, “Haddonfield Heights is a neighborhood that houses a dark history. Some residents try to forget the horrors that occurred on Halloween night in 1963. Others gather at the Haddonfield water tower to share the twisted tale of Lampkin Lane.”
What is Haddonfield Heights?
Movie buffs likely recognize Haddonfield as the name of fictional Illinois town where Michael Myers tormented residents on Halloween night in the original 1978 film (and in at least a handful of the many sequels). According to the developers, the Haddonfield Heights map focuses on a part of town that sits under the Haddonfield water tower.
The map includes a handful of interesting environments including suburban houses, yards, alleyways, and winding streets. The map has plenty of different spots where the player who will be in control of Michael can chase down the others and try to take them out before they can call for help.
