Slender: The Arrival is a first-person survival horror video game developed by Blue Isle Studios among Parsec Productions as a fully realized, commercial version to Parsec Productions' Slender: The Eight Pages, with Chapter 9 being a remake of the aforementioned game. It is the fifth video game adaptation based on the Slender Man mythos. Slender Man’s creator, Eric Knudsen, served as a producer. A 10th anniversary remaster and third game was teased on June 23, 2023, with a countdown set to expire on July 27, 2023. The majority of the game takes place in abandoned areas , each with different objectives. This limited defense forces a sense of helplessness, as the best way to survive in the game is to run whenever in danger. In the first level, the Slender Man can be seen standing outside of the house through every window, once the player acquires the flashlight, and after going through the gate outside he can be seen on the top of hills well away from the player. In level two, he most often teleports off-screen or just out of the character's line of sight, but is capable of appearing directly in front of the player. It is observed that his motion centers around following the player, but consists largely of jumping from place to place, the inconvenience of which is increased as each of the eight pages are collected. In this level, the main antagonist is a girl who chases the player . While looking at the Slender Man, the camera succumbs to electronic distortions such as static, blurring, color spots, audio distortion, etc., which obstructs the player's vision unless facing away, and far enough from it. When caught, the game over screen is also different; while in Slender: The Eight Pages, the player saw a white static background with Slender Man's faceless head, the one for Slender: The Arrival is black, with an overhead-lit and color-distorted hue and less static. There are also new choices in difficulty being easy, normal, and hardcore.
