‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ – Leatherface and the Family Getting Alternate Bloody Skins

Published

on

In addition to new outfit packs for the survivors, Gun Interactive has announced today that Leatherface and his murder family are getting their own alt skins in an upcoming DLC pack.

The “Bloody Family” pack will cover Leatherface, the Hitchhiker, the Cook, Sissy and Johnny in fresh blood from their latest victims, with the blood all over their faces and bodies.

Previously announced, Cosmetics (Clothing and Weapons) packs will cost $4.99, with Executions going for $6.99, Characters for $9.99, and Premium Content selling for $15.99.

In The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, you take on the role of one of the notorious Slaughter family, or their victims, in a third-person asymmetrical horror experience based on Tobe Hooper’s groundbreaking and iconic 1974 film. As a victim you must use your wits and stealth to stay out of the Family’s reach and find the tools you need to lead to your eventual freedom.

Meanwhile, Family players must seek out, track down, and stop their guests from escaping.

The game features classic villains from the movies as well as new family members, and the events of the Chain Saw game take place *before* Tobe Hooper’s original classic.

Here’s the plot synopsis: “A group of five young adults led by Ana Flores set out to search for her missing sister. What they found was terror beyond their wildest nightmares.”

Brandon Trush writes in his review for BD, “asymmetrical horror evolves to fit a terror classic.”

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
