Revival versus the 2022 film
If you searched the film and landed on a game guide, this is the page that says so in the first line.
What I checked
Wikipedia's film article describes a Hulu release directed by David Bruckner, with Jamie Clayton as Pinhead. The game launched 8 October 2026, is played, and credits Doug Bradley. I am not comparing plots beyond that, because I am not using the film as a source for game puzzles.

Dates are from the articles and the Steam page, not from memory.
