'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' Game

The multiplayer horror game based on the Texas Chainsaw Massacre film way back in 1974 will bring its gaming experience for PC and next-generation console players.

As per the report by VentureBeat, the gameplay of the upcoming horror multiplayer gaming title is somewhat similar to how another popular spooky title, "Dead by Daylight," works, wherein players are trying to escape from a single creature.

The creative director of Gun Interactive in Lexington, Kentucky, which was behind the "Friday the 13th: The Game," Ronnie Hobbs, said that "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" is perhaps his most loved horror film ever.

Aside from Gun Interactive, Sumo Nottingham is also working on the upcoming horror gaming title.

Meanwhile, the executive producer at Sumo Nottingham, Darren Campion, said that the team is already "incredibly excited to finally reveal what we've been working on."

On top of that, the Sumo Nottingham executive producer further noted that the film has already been classified as a "cult classic."

That said, the team could no longer wait for the fans of the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" to experience the franchise in a game.

The devs of the upcoming horror gaming title have yet to announce which platforms it would be released on. However, it is said to be available on PCs and other next-generation consoles.
