Gun Media recently held a special livestream for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, as they showed off details of new content coming up. Led by Head of Brand Strategy Matt Szep and CEO/President Wes Keltner, the two covered a number of topics about upcoming content, including new cosmetics, a new map, and some throwbacks to some of the previous films. We have the dev notes below as you can enjoy the video here.
Execution Packs & Weapon Skins
Multiple new execution packs will soon be added to the game, many of which are far more brutal than those currently available to players. Creative Director Ronnie Hobbs "pushed the dial a little further toward the dangerous to bring [these executions] to life." As well, weapon skins will soon be available, allowing players who focus on playing as Family members to customize their favorite weaponry.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Cosmetics
During the livestream, Matt and Wes announced that they will be partnering with the studio Art Bully to bring new styles to everyone's favorite Family and Victim characters. Two of the most notable? Bride Sissy and the oft-requested Shirtless Johnny, both of which will be free for all players once launched.
Museum Mode
Similar to a photo mode, this will allow players to better appreciate the in-game levels, and to take and share photos of their own. As well, this mode will showcase trivia and behind-the-scenes footage from the game and the original 1974 film!
New Characters & New Map
The Gun Interactive team confirmed that a new Victim and new Family member are both in development, while still requiring further fine-tuning and testing. More key details about these characters will be shared closer to their launch. The new map, also in development, is called The Mill, and has a wildly different layout than currently available maps, with more verticality and four distinct levels, including a dry creekbed.
