Gun Interactive, the developer behind the asymmetrical multiplayer horror game “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre,” is set to release new free cosmetics as a token of appreciation to its dedicated player base. Scheduled for April 30th, these cosmetics, named Blackout, will be available exclusively to players who reach level 99 in the game.
Since its launch in August 2023, “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” has garnered attention for its adaptation of the iconic slasher movie franchise into a gripping gaming experience. Players can choose to embody either the Victims or the Family, navigating through a world of terror and survival. With recent adjustments made by the developers, including this upcoming release of additional content, the game aims to enhance player satisfaction and retention.
The Blackout cosmetics, featuring all-black skins for both the Family and the Victims, are a gesture of gratitude towards the community for their dedication to the game. Available for free to those who achieve the milestone of reaching level 99, these cosmetics add a new layer of customisation to the gaming experience. Players who have already reached this level by the time of release will automatically receive the items, enriching their gameplay with fresh aesthetics.
However, it’s worth noting that the iconic character Leatherface will not be included in the Blackout cosmetics. Instead, the developers have introduced a special all-black weapon skin named Oil Slick, exclusively for the character Bubba. This decision has sparked interest and discussion among players, particularly those who main Bubba, as it adds an enticing incentive to play as the character.
In addition to the free content, players will have the option to purchase a new paid skin for the character Sissy. Priced at $2.99, the Wildflower Outfit offers a bloodstained appearance, providing an alternative to the all-black theme. While some may find the price slightly steep, it falls within the range of previous cosmetic items offered in the game.
The introduction of these new cosmetics raises questions about the relationship between the developer and the player community. Will this gesture foster a stronger sense of camaraderie and appreciation among players? Only time will tell. Nevertheless, it demonstrates a clear commitment from Gun Interactive to continually expand and enrich the gaming experience, particularly for high-level players who have invested significant time and effort into the game.
As “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” continues to evolve, with regular patches and updates, players can anticipate a growing array of content to enhance their gaming adventures. Whether it’s through free rewards for dedicated players or new paid options for those seeking further customisation, the game remains dedicated to providing a thrilling and immersive experience for fans of the horror genre.
