Barbarian <\/em>is one of the more memorable horror movies of the last few years. It tells a tale of a young woman who finds that someone is already staying at her rental home. She has little choice but to stay there since nearby hotels are all booked up. That alone is a nightmare scenario but the film goes into some truly wild directions from there. On the surface, it seems like an odd choice to turn into a video game, but that's exactly what's happening.<\/p>\n

New Regency Pictures and Friday the 13th: The Game<\/ins><\/em><\/a> and Evil Dead: The Game<\/ins><\/em><\/a><\/em>developer Diversion3 Entertainment have teamed up to bring Barbarian <\/em>to PC and consoles. Despite the multiplayer format of the studio's previous projects, this will be a single-player, narrative-focused title which will<\/ins><\/a> "expand on the settings, characters and creatures of Barbarian<\/em>." There's no release timeframe as yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to work with the team at New Regency to expand on the settings, characters and creatures of Barbarian<\/em>,\u201d Tim Hesse, an executive producer at Diversion3 Entertainment, told Variety<\/ins><\/em><\/a> in a statement. \u201cThe film did a magnificent job of not only scaring audiences with its unexpected and horrifying twists and turns, but also in establishing strong characters thrown into terrifying situations. We look forward to exploring these themes further in the game.\u201d<\/p>\n

A straight adaptation of the film's story probably wouldn't work as a game. But there's certainly potential for it to work as a tension-filled survival horror title given (mild spoilers) how much of the Barbarian <\/em>takes place in terrifying underground tunnels.<\/p>\n

For the uninitiated, here's the trailer for Barbarian. <\/em>Happy Halloween.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
