The creator of viral horror video game The Mortuary Assistant is making a new, officially licensed Paranormal Activity video game.
Paranormal Activity, due out in 2026, is produced by Paramount Game Studios, with The Mortuary Assistant creator Brian Clarke, aka DarkStone Digital, on development duty. DreadXP, the publisher Clarke co-directs, will handle the release. The game is based on the hugely popular found footage horror film franchise, which kicked off in 2007 and has seen seven films. The teaser trailer is below:

And here's the official blurb:
“The success of the Paranormal Activity franchise epitomizes the power and reach of the horror genre,” said Clarke. “If you thought The Mortuary Assistant was scary, we’re taking what we learned during the development of that title and cranking it up with a more reactive and horrifying haunting system. It’s going to be intense!”
The Paranormal Activity video game is slated for release in 2026 across multiple platforms. Expect more information from DreadXP at a later date.
