The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is an outstanding multiplayer survival horror game set in the classic horror film universe, the famous The Texas Chain Saw Massacre franchise, started by Tobe Hooper in 1974.

While The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is a loose 1974 film adaptation, it contains both the characters and places known from the movie franchise as well as some original characters and areas. Delve into the world of the classic psychological horror series with a modern twist!

Welcome to the family

The game, an asymmetrical survival horror, lets the players choose one of two teams to play in - in a typical match seven players can play together, with four of them taking the roles of survivors and three becoming the murderous members of the cannibal family. Players gain experience points based on their performance during the match and level up their characters in order to unlock new perks and skins as well as upgrade their abilities. Anything can happen here, but one thing is certain: the match can’t start without the Leatherface and his chainsaw present!

The goal of the grotesque and sadistic family members is to catch and murder their victims. Choose your favourite character and use their unique abilities to set traps, track, poison and torture the survivors. Don’t forget to harvest blood from traps and your victims, and then feed it to your beloved Grandpa - his one-of-a-kind abilities are crucial for easy tracking of the careless survivors!

The survivors’ goal if of course surviving - do anything to escape the map and don’t get caught by the family members in the process! Every map offers various ways of escaping that require skill, stealth, knowledge and a bit of luck to make use of them. Stay hidden or run for your life - the choice is yours! Sometimes the cooperation between survivors is the key to their survival, but will you help your friends or leave them behind to avoid getting killed yourself?
