The Conjuring franchise is expanding into video games with its first dedicated title, The Conjuring: Unspoken, set to launch on Netflix in October. This marks the horror film series' initial foray into the gaming medium after a decade of films.
The game was announced via Netflix's monthly New on Netflix newsletter. A brief description suggests players will investigate paranormal signals at the Red Lion Inn, assisting a grieving family plagued by eerie events. The narrative appears to focus on paranormal investigation, a hallmark of the film series' protagonists, Ed and Lorraine Warren.
Details about The Conjuring: Unspoken remain scarce. It is unclear if the game will resemble Netflix's previous interactive horror titles, such as Unhinged, or adopt a different approach. The involvement of Ed and Lorraine Warren is also unconfirmed, though their presence would be expected given the game's premise.
Unlike many other Netflix games, The Conjuring: Unspoken will be a cloud-based title, potentially allowing access across various platforms and devices without direct ties to mobile. The game is described as cinematic, indicating a strong emphasis on narrative and substantial cutscenes.
This release coincides with the spooky season and follows the recent launch of Silent Hill: Townfall, which received positive reviews. The Conjuring franchise has had a previous connection to gaming through Fortnite, which featured a map themed after The Conjuring: Last Rites in 2025.
Netflix has indicated a growing focus on cloud-based gaming, citing the success of Unhinged. Co-CEO Greg Peters noted the company's intention to continue investing in the space, calibrating based on demonstrated performance and member engagement. However, there are concerns that the developer of The Conjuring: Unspoken might face the same fate as Nightschool, the studio behind Unhinged, which was reportedly shut down by Netflix despite its game's successful debut.
