Almost every moderately successful video game under the sun seems to be getting a film or series adaptation, and nightmarish labyrinth The Exit 8 is next in line.
The Exit 8 might not have reached the same mainstream heights as Mouthwashing or Doki Doki Literature Club - as far as indie horrors go - but it's still been a wild success regardless. On Steam, the "short walking simulator inspired by Japanese underground passageways, liminal spaces and back rooms" has a Very Positive rating thanks to its infinitely looping psychological horror. And Nintendo recently announced that The Exit 8 was the second most-downloaded Switch game of the year in Japan, trailing only last year's victor Suika Game.
