Two paid Michael skins went on sale on October 27, 2026, at $9.99 USD each. The Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers skin (the “1989 Michael” in the notes) also unlocks the Scythe starting weapon immediately. The Halloween (2018) skin is based on the 2018 film; IllFonic says its mask design was supervised by Christopher Nelson, who sculpted the mask for the recent trilogy. The notes describe them only as skins and mention no stat changes.

IllFonic — Tower Farm Terror (Patch 1.2.0 notes) ↗ (October 27, 2026) says the new Michael skins are now available for purchase. IllFonic had announced them on October 5 at $9.99 each, licensed through a partnership with Trancas International Films, Inc. and MIRAMAX. IllFonic — Halloween 2026 Content Update ↗ Both are listed at $9.99 on Steam — Halloween: The Game downloadable content ↗. They are part of the Tower Farm Terror update.
Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989 Michael)
IllFonic’s description: “Seek revenge on Haddonfield as Michael Myers inspired by Halloween 5. Become The Boogeyman after he wakes from his year-long coma.” IllFonic — Tower Farm Terror (Patch 1.2.0 notes) ↗
It also unlocks the Scythe. The notes say the Scythe starting weapon can be unlocked by buying “the new 1989 Michael”. The October 5 announcement says the Scythe is unlocked immediately for buyers of the Halloween 5 skin. IllFonic — Halloween 2026 Content Update ↗ The other route is free challenges: buying this skin unlocks the Scythe starting weapon right away, and that page covers both routes. The same film inspired the Tower Farm map.
Halloween (2018) Michael Myers
IllFonic’s description: “40 years have passed and Michael Myers’ thirst for blood has not slowed. Play as The Shape, recently escaped from Smith’s Grove, in this skin based on the 2018 film.” IllFonic — Tower Farm Terror (Patch 1.2.0 notes) ↗
Mask design credit: the October 5 announcement says the mask design is being supervised by Academy Award winner Christopher Nelson, who sculpted the mask for Halloween (2018), Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends. IllFonic — Halloween 2026 Content Update ↗ That is IllFonic’s statement; the October 27 notes do not repeat it, and this site has not verified it independently.
