Here’s a fresh look at the 3v4 gameplay
The horror-movie-turned-asymmetric-multiplayer-game trend isn’t slowing down, and I’m curious to see how Gun Interactive will pull off itskillers-versus-survivors setupinThe Texas Chain Saw Massacre. The 2023 video game is coming into more gruesome focus today with a highly choreographed, albeit mood-setting, new gameplay trailer.
They aren’t kidding around with that “Unrated” notice.
Last month, the developersdove into three of the game’s maps— the Family House, Gas Station, and Slaughterhouse — with overhead previews and descriptions.
“The Family will need to keep their eyes and ears open and depend on all of the tools at their disposal, including teamwork, to search out and discover where the Victims are before they are able to escape the Family’s clutches,” noted Gun Interactive communications director Daniel Nixon. “We’ve said before that Victims should be silent, shut off the lights, and stick to the shadows. These are the core concepts to strive for, though there are times that players can’t, or won’t, be able to follow these guidelines.”
Beyond the trailer, we can also glean a bit Texas Chain Saw Massacre‘s hide-seek-and-run 3v4 gameplay from new screenshots. Check out those skies.
While Gun is known for its work onFriday the 13th: The Game, CEO Wes Keltnerhas explained that they“never want to make the same game twice,” adding that “you either innovate or imitate, and I don’t have to tell you which one makes for a better game.”
PS4 and Xbox One versions confirmed
According to executive producer Ismael Vicens, Sumo Nottingham will bring the game to PS4 and Xbox One “in a way that preserves the gameplay and visual tone of the title while giving players what they have been asking for.” I hope the passion pays off.
