Multiplayer horror games had quite the year, and for those who hoped to be immersed in the world of Tobe Hooper’s 1974 horror classic, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre delivered in every way. In this game, you can take on the role of the terrifying Slaughter family or their victims, hoping to find a way to freedom in a 3v4 structure. We stated that the game, “captures that summertime heated fear of the film by staying true to the aesthetics of Tobe Hooper’s original,“ making it one of our standout gaming picks for this year.
And to keep you hooked (pun absolutely intended), The Texas Chain Saw Massacre continues to add exciting features for fans to enjoy. A new mode called ‘Rush Week’ recently launched, taking inspiration from “late ’70s Giallo-inspired Slasher films,“ per the game’s website. It’s clear that developers Sumo Digital and Gun Interactive are keen to keep the game’s future alive and thriving in creative ways that pay homage to its horror roots, and as fans, we’re forever grateful.
