RememberThe Blair Witch Project, that viral horror sensation that made waves before social media was even a thing? Well, it’s back. And it’s an Xbox game.
Microsoft debuted a first look trailer forBlair Witchduring its annual E3 press conference, and it’s coming fromLayers of Feardeveloper Bloober. We don’t know much. It returns you to the Black Hills Forest, the site of the movie. There’s a camcorder. Also, a dog.
I fear for that dog. My heart already worries for what’s going to happen there. Here’s what Bloober has to say about the game:
It’s 1996. A young boy disappears in the Black Hills Forest near Burkittsville, Maryland. As Ellis, a former police officer with a troubled past, you join the search. What starts as an ordinary investigation soon turns into an endless nightmare as you confront your fears and the Blair Witch, a mysterious force that haunts the woods…

Earlier today, Microsoft shared its earnings results Q3 FY2026, covering for the period between 1st January and 31st March. Microsoft’s revenue is up 18 percent, at $82.9bn, though gaming revenue fell seven percent. Xbox content and services also saw a drop of five percent year on year. Microsoft attributed this to “a prior year comparable that benefited from strong first-party performance”.
Meanwhile, Xbox hardware revenue dropped 33 percent. This follows a price rise for Xbox Series X/S consoles in the US towards the end of last year, the consoles’ second in six months. In November, Microsoft said this price increase was due to “changes in the macroeconomic environment”. Despite this, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said the company had “set new records for monthly Xbox active users in the quarter, as well as game streaming hours”.
