The Texas Chainsaw Massacre will soon have its own video game. The latter announces its release date with an extremely violent trailer. you have been warned
After Friday the 13th: The Video Games, the flawed adaptation of the Gore franchise Friday 13, which gave players the chance to embody one of cinema’s most famous serial killers, publisher Gun Interactive is back with another equally gory license. Not Jason and his hockey mask this time, but Leatherface, his chainsaw and his human skin mask. As a bonus, this madman has obviously brought his entire family back.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre game promises to be extremely violent
Always aiming to offer us a survival horror in asymmetric multiplayer, Gun Interactive called sumo studio Nottingham and the developers put the harness in the big ones. In the next The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (chainsaw massacre here), we can not only embody the famous serial killer as in Dead By Daylight, but also his entire family of murderous savages. The game will therefore pit killers against survivors. Each game they have to leave the scene by completing a few objectives on the road. The killers, so much for them, must attack and liquidate the poor victims. And if we are to believe the video, it looks particularly violent.
While visually the game doesn’t look like breaking a duck’s three legs, we have to admit that the kill animations feel extremely brutal and bloody. It’s brutal, and gallons of blood are being spilled. That should satisfy fans of the franchise from here.
A release date and beta for Leatherface and his family
In terms of gameplay, however, we’ll have to wait a little longer to see what happens. The game chainsaw massacre is dated August 18 on PS5, Xbox Series, PC, PS4 and Xbox One. It will also appear on Xbox Game Pass once it is released.
A beta phase is scheduled for the PC on May 25th, which should help us with temperature measurement. This game chainsaw massacre already promises to stay true to the first films in the franchise. Saga started in the 70’s with the film of the same name, the franchise will have had a fair number of more or less canonical episodes and reboots since then. The latest film, soberly called… chainsaw massacreis available exclusively on Netflix.
