The developers behind the new “Halloween” video game just yanked a twisted minigame that allowed an iconic character to have sex with high schoolers.
The game — which is based on the slasher film franchise — was offered for early access on Sept. 4 to online users who can play as different characters looking to escape mass killer Michael Meyers.
But gameplay clips quickly showing the character Dr. Loomis, a 56-year-old character modeled after much-beloved late actor Donald Pleasence, could have sex with teen characters.
The game’s developers, IllFonic, removed the sex minigame feature entirely on Sunday.
“I think they forgot to make it so Loomis couldn’t f–k,” said one gamer on social media after the clips went viral.
“The 70 year old dead actor’s likeness f–king a teenager has gotta be patched out right?” said another before the minigame was removed.
The minigame allowed two players to enter into closets and other hidden areas to evade the killer. While hidden, one player could press a button to make a move on the other, and if the second player consented, both players had to fill up an on-screen heart meter by pressing buttons together.
The sex was not explicitly shown and only depicted the outside of the hiding spot — but the room would shake as the heart meter filled while audible moans were heard in the room, tipping off killers that potential victims were nearby.
Gamers immediately noticed the change and took to sites like Reddit and X to complain about the minigame’s removal.
“Lame bandaid fix — just removing something entirely because people whined is crazy,” said one gamer.
Representatives for IllFonic, the game’s developers, did not respond to The Post’s request for comment.
The game is scheduled for wide release to the general public on Sept. 8.
