The Co-Creator of Texas Chain Saw Massacre worked with game developers to create new assassins

Original text too short.

Earlier today came the world premiere of Gun Media that an asymmetric horror game based on The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is officially underway. To the Like his previous title Friday the 13th, the new game will have murderers fighting survivors, but unlike that particular game, Gun Media only has the rights to the first film of Texas Chain Saw. So instead of a lot of different versions of Leather face to choose as playable murderers, as Friday 13 offered different Jason's with different abilities based on his many appearances of sequels, the new game Gun will give you a choice of several murderers to choose. Including some new ones.

Beyond the iconic Leather face as a playable murderer, Gun has confirmed that both The Cook and The Hitchhiker of 'Slaughter' family will be playable in the game and that's new. ~~ murderers will be presented family members. In a blog post on the official website of the game, Gun confirmed that they wanted to create entirely new characters that would fit perfectly with the original favorites, while continuing to focus on the accuracy and authenticity, and for this they sought help of none other than Kim Henkel., Co-writer of the original film with director Tone Hooper. Henkel worked with the team to develop new murderers who can play in the game, marking the first time he works in the franchise itself from Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation 1994.

It quickly became apparent that we would need additional members of the family to create the kind of team-based multiplayer experience we were looking for, said Ronnie Hobbs, creative director of Gun Interactive in a statement. Why are interesting The Cook, Leather face and Hitchhiker three murderers simply would not be enough to keep the game for long periods of time. We needed more. Fortunately, Kim Henkel again help us solve this problem. Kim had several ideas for additional characters that never came to appear in the 1974 film, but at the end we allowed creating new family members Slaughter on our own. This level of trust meant a lot to me. I knew that every new member of the family had to be unique. «

If I can not discuss specifics good character, I can say that a considerable amount of time and work invested in developing each new murderers. Each took more than a year from start to finish, and is an aspect of the game that the team and I are quite proud.

Details about the release of The slaughter Chainsaw Texas not confirmed, but a new reboot of the property will come to Netflix in February 2022. If the game also arrives next year, it would be the most important year in the history of the franchise.
