‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ Celebrates 1 Million Units Sold and Over 5 Million Total Players
In the wake of huge development news, a promise that new content is coming through 2024, and a Double XP weekend – not to mention last week’s announcement that horror icon Barbara Crampton is joining the game! – Gun Interactive has announced this morning that The Texas Chain Saw Massacre has officially sold 1.1 million units in the past six months!
Additionally, they’ve announced that the game has seen 4.5 million players on Xbox Game Pass, while 5.6 million people in total have played The Texas Chain Saw Massacre video game.
Gun Interactive tweets this morning in celebration of the news, “To all 5.6 million players who stepped into Texas, thank you for sharing this unique horror experience with us.”
What can you expect from the game in the coming months? In addition to Barbara Crampton, a brand new map titled “The Mill” is on the way, along with a new Family member.
A “Museum Mode” for the Family House map is also coming soon.
Stay tuned for more on The Texas Chain Saw Massacre as we learn it.
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.”
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
