“Exit 8” puts a unique spin on the growing trend of video game film adaptations.
Released in Japan in August 2025, “Exit 8” is an adaptation of the 2023 indie adventure game The Exit 8, a psychological-horror-infused walking simulator that requires players to move around an endlessly looping Japanese metro station hallway, spotting so-called “anomalies” to advance closer to the exit. The film is scheduled to release on North American movie theater screens on April 10.
