Halloween: The Game Appears to Patch Out a Sex Minigame — and Players Think They Know Why
Halloween: The Game developer IllFonic appears to have patched out a sex mini-game after a gameplay clip went viral.
IllFonic, the developer of Halloween: The Game, seems to have removed a controversial sex minigame after a gameplay clip featuring the character Samuel Loomis went viral. The minigame allowed players to have sex in a closet with other characters, including a 17-year-old female character. The character of Samuel Loomis, who is in his fifties and based on deceased actor Donald Pleasence's likeness, was notably engaging in the act with teenagers.
The game is set to launch fully on September 8, but those who purchased the Halloween Deluxe Edition were able to play the early access version from this weekend. The removal of the sex minigame has not been mentioned in the hotfix notes released by IllFonic. Players are now calling for the minigame to be restored or for Samuel Loomis to be prevented from participating.
