The Mind-Blowing Twist That Sets the Texas Chain Saw Massacre Game Apart from Every Other Multiplayer Game

Highlights

Drawing significant inspiration from the iconic original Texas Chainsaw Massacre film, the game strives to deliver the bone-chilling experience of confronting a formidable adversary like Leatherface.

Leatherface, the notorious killer from the franchise, has made appearances in previous horror games such as Dead by Daylight and Mortal Kombat X. However, the upcoming Texas Chain Saw Massacre game is expected to deliver a multiplayer horror experience that is on par with Friday the 13th.

Developed by Gun Interactive, the upcoming Texas Chain Saw Massacre game will introduce a major departure from the typical battle pass system found in many modern games. In recent years, horror games have undergone a notable transformation, diving into the asymmetrical multiplayer genre to create a sense of terror while battling an overwhelmingly powerful adversary. Games like Dead by Daylight and Evil Dead have successfully popularized this genre within the realm of multiplayer gaming. Now, the highly anticipated Texas Chain Saw Massacre adaptation seeks to differentiate itself significantly from its contemporaries.

The highly anticipated Texas Chain Saw Massacre game has generated excitement among fans of the horror film franchise since its announcement. The developer of the popular multiplayer game Friday the 13th has shared various details about the game, showcasing how players can collaborate to evade the terrifying Leatherface. It has been confirmed that the game will draw more inspiration from the original film rather than its numerous sequels. Interestingly, the game will diverge from the current trend by not including a battle pass, as revealed by Gun Interactive in a recent interview with gaming outlet MP1st. Instead, the studio plans to offer more traditional DLC, breaking away from other horror games like Dead by Daylight that heavily rely on monetizing through battle passes.

The absence of a battle pass in Texas Chain Saw Massacre bucks a long-standing trend observed in numerous online games. Battle passes have been widely used in popular online games as a means to reward players with additional content for actively engaging in the game. This monetization method, particularly popular with free-to-play games like Fortnite and Fall Guys, entices players to purchase battle passes, granting them access to exclusive cosmetic items. In some instances, game developers have even combined battle passes with more traditional downloadable content (DLC) packages.

The second video game adaptation of the popular franchise, Texas Chain Saw Massacre, is set to release on August 18th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Although Leatherface has already made appearances in multiple other horror games, such as Dead by Daylight and Mortal Kombat X, Behaviour Interactive has recently denied rumors of his departure from the former. With its horror-filled multiplayer experience, the upcoming Texas Chain Saw Massacre aims to rival Gun Interactive's Friday the 13th.
