Spin Master and Universal Products & Experiences have announced Hellbreak, a new horror-themed trading card game scheduled for global release in Fall 2026. Developed in collaboration with the design team at Ghost Galaxy, the project aims to merge collectible gameplay with recognizable horror properties.
Built around a “Monster Sandbox” concept, Hellbreak places genre icons into a competitive arena where characters face off in strategic battles. The initial card set draws from Universal Monsters, bringing together figures that span early cinematic horror through more contemporary eras. Additional partnerships with other major studios are expected, positioning the game as a crossover platform within the horror space.
According to Spin Master, the title reflects the growing popularity of trading card games while expanding the company’s footprint in the category. Universal Products & Experiences noted the opportunity to extend horror storytelling into an interactive format, while Ghost Galaxy emphasized a design approach centered on cinematic tension and replayability. Further details on gameplay mechanics, artwork, and collector editions are expected ahead of the 2026 launch.
