New Texas Chain Saw Massacre Change Has Many Fans Frustrated

As a long-time fan of horror games, I find myself torn between anticipation and apprehension regarding Gun Media’s recent announcement about The Texas Chain Saw Massacre updates. On one hand, I appreciate their efforts to provide more time for developers to work on patches and new content. After all, who doesn’t want a better gaming experience? But on the other hand, as someone who has been burned before (pun intended) with games that stopped receiving updates, I can’t help but feel a sense of unease.


Gun Media has shared plans for altering the update schedule of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. In a recent post on their official subreddit, the publisher revealed that instead of regular bi-weekly updates, they will now switch to monthly ones starting from hereon. This adjustment aims to provide the development team with additional time to refine patches and create fresh content. However, they remain committed to considering player feedback while enhancing the game as a whole.

In order to provide our team with more time to work on a fix, we’ve decided to return to a monthly update schedule. The second year of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and the Content Pass represent a change in how we release content and game updates. This new approach seems optimal for maintaining a steady stream of fresh content as we move forward into this new phase.

The effectiveness of this new approach is yet unknown, but many enthusiasts have expressed dissatisfaction. Previously, monthly updates were common, however, Gun Media shifted towards bi-weekly updates instead. Fans of Texas Chain Saw Massacre feel this change is regressive, and they worry that the return to monthly updates might delay the resolution of certain problems. Reddit user Thumperf00t criticizes the developer for showing a lack of swift action when necessary, disregarding community feedback when it’s abundant, and failing to deliver on promises. Another user, LowenbrauDel, asserts that in today’s era, one must take a proactive approach; otherwise, players might lose interest and move on.

It’s clear that LowenbrauDel makes a valid observation. Following the removal of “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” from Xbox Game Pass this month, the developers will need to persuade former players to purchase the game or justify their initial investment. Since its release last year, one of the main criticisms leveled at “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” is the possibility that it would cease receiving updates, similar to what happened with “Friday the 13th: The Game.” Fortunately, updates have continued, but this pattern isn’t unheard of. Now, there’s added competition in the asymmetrical horror game market with the arrival of new titles like “Killer Clowns from Outer Space.”

As a devoted fan, I’m eagerly watching to see how this switch to a monthly update system unfolds. It could potentially lead to improved content and a team with a bit more leeway in their workflow. However, it’s natural for us fans to harbor some worries about the game’s long-term prospects. After all, we want nothing but the best for our beloved game!
