2003 Leatherface Joins The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Game This Month

The 2003 version of Leatherface is coming to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre game on 28 January. The outfit brings a new mask, hairstyle, and even a custom execution - all designed to stay true to the iconic 2003 film portrayal. While Content Pass holders will automatically unlock 2003 Leatherface, he will also be on sale for $6.99 USD for non-content pass holders on starting 28 January. 

 “Assisting with the reference design of 2003 Leatherface was one of my biggest thrills in my three years at Gun. Scouring through screenshots, working closely with our design team and the talented folks at Art Bully Productions was a total blast for this lifelong horror nerd," writes Andy Cleves, Community Representative for Gun Interactive.

"This look of Leatherface is arguably one of his most menacing so it was of utmost importance to get every detail of the mask and outfit where it needed to be. We hope players enjoy the love that was put into this new Leatherface skin coming to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre," Cleves added.

The arrival of the 2003 version of Leatherface in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre game could signal the addition of more iconic characters from the 2003 film in future updates. With this detailed and chilling new version of Leatherface, it’s clear the team has put a lot of effort into capturing the distinct look and feel of the movie, from the mask to the unique execution.

Given how much care was taken with Leatherface’s appearance, it wouldn’t be surprising if other key characters from the 2003 Texas Chain Saw Massacre—like the formidable Sheriff Hoyt or the terrifyingly twisted character of Thomas Hewitt—are added to the game in future updates.
