Texas Chain Saw Massacre: How To Play Leatherface

Because Leatherface offers only brute force, you'll need to work with teammates to listen to callouts about survivors' locations and determine the best way to approach them. Using Leatherface's ability might be challenging, but it's highly rewarding. Here are our favorite tips and tricks for utilizing this Family member.

Listen To Teammates

While Leatherface is powerful, other Family members, like The Cook, are better at pinning down survivors' locations. For this reason, you'll need to listen to your teammates if you want any chance at downing a survivor; otherwise, they'll likely evade you. No matter which character you're playing, properly utilizing good teamwork strategies is key to winning any match of TCSM.

Pay Attention To Chainsaw Cooldown

As Leatherface, your chainsaw, is, of course, your most powerful weapon of choice - but you can't use it freely after charging it. It'll eventually overheat, forcing you to go on a temporary cooldown until it's done recharging. Therefore, you'll want to make sure that you use your chainsaw wisely and only charge when necessary.

Turn Off Your Chainsaw

One thing to note as Leatherface is that you can actually turn off your chainsaw; while you'll of course, want to have this useful and strong tool on hand and ready to use most of the time, turning it off can allow you to to stealthily approach victims. Turn it off when you're approaching, and turn it back on when you're ready to attack.

Eliminate Barricades

Survivors can make or find escape routes using doors, walls, and barricades. You can tear them down using your chainsaw, allowing you to easily scope out victims' locations (since they're out in the open) and destroy their means of escape. Since other Family members tend to be better at tracking survivors than Leatherface, you can rely on their intel to decide which barricades to tear down and where to go on the map.

Those are all of our best tips and tricks for playing Leatherface in the Texas Chain Saw Massacre game. Using your chainsaw, you can tear your way through survivors and work with other Family members to win your next match of TCSM.
