The developers of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre had been promising a new map (“The Mill”) as well as a new family member and a new victim in the coming months, and today we’ve got some exciting news about one of those brand new characters. Horror legend Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator, You’re Next, Jakob’s Wife) has revealed she’s joining the game!
“I am here to tell you that I’m in the DLC for The Texas Chain Saw Massacre game!” Crampton revealed on social media tonight, sharing a sneak peek at the character that will feature her likeness. Bloody Disgusting has learned that the character’s name is Virginia, and indeed the new character – presumably a survivor – is a dead ringer for Crampton!
Barbara Crampton is no stranger to the world of horror video games, having recently voiced a character in Back 4 Blood. But this will be the first time Crampton has made her presence known in the Texas Chain Saw Massacre franchise, which is extremely cool for fans.
Keep your eyes locked on the game’s official social channels for more…
Also headed into The Texas Chain Saw Massacre video game very soon? A new Execution Pack and Weapon Skins, plus Shirtless Johnny and Bride Sissy, all arriving February 22.
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.
Brandon Trush writes in his review for BD, “asymmetrical horror evolves to fit a terror classic.”
