Horror fans of the early 2000s will no doubt remember Happy Tree Friends. Those same fans will be pleased to know that not only is the show back with a new episode, there’s also a new roguelite shoot’em up DLC from Ravenage Games for The Crackpet Show featuring characters from the Happy Tree Friends.

Premiering today on the MondoMedia Youtube Channel at 6pm ET, the new episode titled “Too Much Scream Time” features guest characters from The Crackpet Show, an action-packed rogue-lite shoot’em-up about mutated animals that fight in a bizarre TV show. That segues into the new DLC for The Crackpet Show featuring Happy Tree Friends.

The Crackpet Show is described as “the most violent TV show in the history of violent TV shows”, where participants will have to shoot, smash and rip through hundreds of enemies on their way to victory. Even if you die, you can still win over the audience with your likes. Use your new-found fame to help upgrade every item and every perk to deal even more damage when you head out again. And don’t worry about getting bored: every episode of the show is randomized so you’ll never have the same run twice in-a-row.

And as you might guess, The Crackpet Show: Happy Tree Friends Edition DLC features the cast of Happy Tree Friends. Here’s the breakdown:

  • 9 playable Happy Tree Friends characters each with unique death animations inspired by the most memorable scenes from the show
  • Lumpy as a host of the show
  • Enhanced sounds and music from the beloved cartoon
  • Updated visuals and effects
  • And much more!

The Crackpet Show and the Happy Tree Friends DLC are available now on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch.
