Halloween: The Game DLC Release Date And Pricing
- Release date: Oct. 27, 2026
- Michael Myers skins (Halloween 2018 & Halloween 5): $10 each, per Polygon
- Civilian character pack (Michelle & Eugene): $10
- Civilian Costumes Pack (14 character skins with 42 color variants): $10
- Tower Farm map: Free for all players
What The DLC Adds To The Game
The two Michael Myers skins represent different eras of the slasher franchise. One draws directly from 2018’s Halloween reboot, while the other recreates Michael’s look from Halloween 5, featuring the franchise’s distinctive mask that has drawn fan criticism for its different proportions and appearance compared to earlier films.
The Civilian Costumes Pack brings Halloween-themed outfits for all 14 in-game characters, each with multiple color variants for seasonal play. The new survivor characters Michelle and Eugene expand the playable roster for those taking the civilian side of the asymmetrical horror game.
Why This Content Matters For Fans
The free Tower Farm map ties directly to Halloween 5’s rural setting, creating new gameplay dynamics in multiplayer matches. The map features plenty of hiding spots for civilians but also open spaces where they can become easy prey to Michael Myers, shifting the strategic balance compared to existing maps.
Horror fans will recognize both skins as milestones in Michael Myers’ visual evolution across the franchise. The Halloween 5 mask, in particular, has long drawn debate among longtime fans for its distinctive look.

What’s Next
Halloween: The Game launched earlier this year as an asymmetrical multiplayer experience where players either hunt as Michael Myers or survive as civilians in Haddonfield. The Oct. 27 update marks the game’s first major content push beyond launch, with Polygon reporting that Illfonic has announced four DLC packs launching simultaneously.
