Will clowns ever not be creepy? I’ve not seen 1988 movie Killer Klowns From Outer Area, however from the look of the sport adaptation’s trailer, I do not assume I ever wish to. Introduced throughout Opening Night time Dwell at this yr’s Gamescom, the cult basic horror flick is getting a multiplayer horror sport launch.
If you happen to’re not aware of the movie, the title kinda says all of it. A gaggle of aliens disguised as clowns invade earth and begin killing individuals – easy! I am informed the trailer harkens again to some iconic moments from the movie, so have a look under:
We solely get snippets of gameplay from the trailer, however I am kinda bought on the concept of a campy horror sport with killer clowns. Gamers can play as both the clowns or residents of Crescent Cove, with writer Good Shepeard explaining which you can select from quite a lot of “lessons” (no details about what that precisely means but) and discover an “everchanging map”.
Because the clowns, your mission is to search out all of the people and take over the city. Because the people, you will have to keep away from getting captured by the clowns and sabotage the alien invasion. Multiplayer is 3v7 (clowns and people respectively) with some PVE thrown in.
It is all a little bit obscure proper now, however hopefully we’ll get some extra strong info sooner or later. Killer Klowns From Outer Area: The Recreation would not but have a launch date, however we are able to count on it to launch someday in 2023.
