Horror film Talk To Me jumps into Fortnite Creative's Deadpines: Zombie Survival
Forthcoming horror film Talk To Me is headed to one of the biggest video games in the world.
Today, a special Talk To Me game is featured in Fortnite Creative’s Deadpines: Zombie Survival. This mode will feature special scenes seen in the forthcoming horror film as players traverse through a haunted mansion with an intense boss fight awaiting them.
Ricardo Briceno, Chief Business Officer at Gamefam, said this about the special event:
“There is no more authentic match for bloodthirsty zombies in Deadpines than an activation with the severed hand from ‘Talk to Me,’ and that’s why we’re so confident it’ll bring an awesome of mix of joy and jumpscares to Fortnite players. Simply put, the opportunity for movies and other media to extend beyond the big screen and into culture, including the metaverse, has never been greater, and the evolution of Fortnite Creative has opened doors to push the boundaries on this deeply tailored integration.”
