Texas Chainsaw Massacre video game: the Slaughterhouse map overview has been unveiled

For the last few days, the game developers at Gun Interactive and Sumo Nottingham have been sharing overview looks at the maps that have been confirmed for their upcoming Texas Chainsaw Massacre video game. One map is a recreation of the Family House seen in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie (watch it HERE). The other is a recreation of the Gas Station from the movie. Now an overview look at the third of the game’s three confirmed maps has been unveiled, and this one takes us to a location we didn’t see much of in the original film: The Slaughterhouse.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre video game is set before the events of the original film and has the following set-up:

When Maria Flores went missing, and local law enforcement seemed to stall out in their search, her younger sister Ana teamed up with some of Maria’s friends from college to pick up the trail. It’s time for you to meet our cast of Victims.

Matches of the game will pit four potential victims against three killers. You can read about the victim characters HERE. In addition to the killers from the movie – Leatherface, the Cook, and the Hitch-hiker – the game will also feature killer characters that have been invented specifically for this game. Matches will take place in maps that are incredible recreations of locations from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, as you can see in the video embedded at the bottom of this article.

The cast that has been assembled to bring the game’s characters to life includes genre icon Kane Hodder, who is doing the motion-capture performance for Leatherface; Edwin Neal, providing the voice of the Hitch-hiker, the character he played in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre; and Scout Taylor-Compton (Rob Zombie’s Halloween), Kristina Klebe (Don’t Kill It), Sean Whalen (The People Under the Stairs), and Damian Maffei (The Strangers: Prey at Night) in unspecified roles.
