The Blue Isle Studios title was developed in collaboration with other Slender experts, including the team behind the Marble Hornets video series and Eric Knudsen, the creator of Slender Man.

The game is rated Teen due to blood and violence, and, come October 22, the Wii U version will be available as a digital download in North America for $9.99.
