Brutal Gameplay Trailer for THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE Video Game
Gun Interactive (Friday the 13th: The Game) has released a gameplay trailer for the upcoming The Texas Chainsaw Massacre video game, and it gets pretty brutal. This trailer definitely contains more bloody violence than we’ve seen in previous trailers.
The game is based on the Tobe Hooper-directed 1974 film, and the developers of the game made sure to meticulously recreate the setting of the film and the characters.
The game features the demented characters from the movies as well as new family members, and the events of the game take place before Tobe Hooper’s film. The story follows “a group of five young adults led by Ana Flores set out to search for her missing sister. What they found was terror beyond their wildest nightmares.”
When previously talking about the film, Wes Keltner, CEO and Audio Director at Gun Interactive said: “We say it a lot here at Gun. Authenticity is incredibly important to us. That’s probably the more press friendly way of saying, we’re obsessive. We studied the exact cameras Hooper used as well as the lens, the LUT’s and color corrections that occurred in post. We’re also lucky that we get to work directly with Kim Henkel, so we can really peel apart the DNA of this film and bring it to life the best way we can. This is what we’re passionate about because we’re fans, just like you.”
Kane Hodder will be reprising his role as Leatherface in the game. Hodder previously did motion-capture work for Jason Voorhees for the Friday the 13th game, which Gun Interactive also made.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is still slated to come out sometime in 2023 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
