Steamforged Games Announces ‘Resident Evil: The Board Game’

Published

on

After successfully launching board games based on Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, you knew this was coming. Steamforged Games has announced that they will be launching a Kickstarter for Resident Evil: The Board Game on October 26th.

The developers have also dropped a new teaser trailer for the board game, showing off the renders based on what looks to be the 2002 Resident Evil remake, rather than the 1996 original. It’s not confirmed as to which scenarios will be included, but you can bet that regardless of what’s announced, the Kickstarter goals (which will mostly likely be smashed again) will take care of any missing pieces.

The board game will allow for 1-4 players, and backers will be getting some exclusive stuff such as a Kickstarter-exclusive box that features the original 1996 logo. You can keep tabs on the game’s happenings leading up to the campaign launch through the Facebook Fan Group.

NECA Leatherface

It’s a big year for Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, as the 1970s horror classic celebrates its 50th anniversary. In addition to a new map in Gun Interactive’s video game, which is launching on March 28, we also know that a 50th anniversary 4K set is on the way.

Additionally, NECA has previewed two brand new Leatherface toys that will be releasing this year, both of them based on the horror classic that started the franchise back in 1974.

Part of the Toony Terrors line, they’re based on two different Leatherface outfits.

The company previews, “Bring the fun of Saturday morning cartoons to your horror collection with the adorable little creeps of Toony Terrors, NECA’s line of stylized horror icons!

“We are thrilled to kick off the 50th anniversary celebration of the 1974 film Texas Chainsaw Massacre with two new Leatherface 6-inch scale Toony action figures. Get a fresh take on our classic Leatherface figure with this version featuring new bloody deco and updated chainsaw deco. Also available is an all-new, fan requested version of Leatherface in his “Pretty Woman” look, complete with chainsaw and iconic armadillo display base.”

Both figures come in commemorative 50th anniversary blister card packaging with cut-out cardbacks featuring original art by NECA painter Geoff Trapp.

The 50th anniversary toys are set to begin shipping in June 2024.
