Hear the Ominous Sounds From the Main Theme From ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ Game [Trailer]
Just like in film, the music and sound for a video game can potentially make or break the experience for the player. Sumo Digital and Gun Interactive know this, and today have unveiled the theme for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
Composed by BAFTA Nominated composer Ross Tregenza (who also did the score for Deathloop, Cyberpunk 2077 and Wolfenstein:Youngblood) and featuring Gun Interactive’s CEO Wes Keltner, the theme accompanies in-game shots of the Farm House map. And as intended, it helps to build the environment itself, not to mention puts immediate dread and tension into the seemingly peaceful and gorgeous surroundings. Funny how that works.
We unfortunately don’t get that famous sound of a tuning fork from the start of the film, but the rumbling bass strings and other effects that seemingly mimic the sound of a revving chainsaw motor should provide plenty of unsettling thoughts. Not to mention the other weird wailing sounds that no doubt enhance the frantic cat-and-mouse gameplay that’s in store for players.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre arrives in 2023 for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store. The game will also be available on Xbox Game Pass on Xbox and PC.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]
While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.
The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.
As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.
Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
