Along with the film release, a survival horror role-playing video game with the same title produced by Juzo Itami and published by Capcom was also released in 1989. According to the game's director, Tokuro Fujiwara, he was able to view the film and use what he wanted to as part of the game, and that he "carefully considered how to go about bringing elements from the movie to the game screen". In turn, the "Sweet Home" video game became the basis for the "Resident Evil" franchise.
