It's been a long time coming, but today finally brings a release date and trailer for one of the most anticipated horror games of 2024, the Killer Klowns from Outer Space video game from Teravision Games and Illfonic.
Trapster, Tracker, Scout, and co will be wreaking havoc on Crescent Cove in the asymmetrical horror game via Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC on June 4, with preorders going live on February 21.
Based on the Chiodo Brothers' 1988 cult classic, the Steam store describes the Killer Klowns game as follows (and it sounds bonkers in the best possible way):
Plan your own alien invasion and harvest humans as the iconic Killer Klowns, or gather a team of survivors to fight the extraterrestrial threat, in a game based on the ‘80s cult classic movie. Welcome to a new, craazzy take on the asymmetrical multiplayer horror experience!
Take on a role of the iconic Killer Klowns – cooperate in a team of three, utilize outlandish abilities, hunt humans with zany weapons, and plan your own alien invasion to successfully harvest the population of Crescent Cove.
Fight back as a team of seven brave citizens of Crescent Cove – explore for valuable loot and weapons, avoid getting captured by Klowns, and try to survive.
Crescent Cove is a sprawling arena for unique 3v7 fights between Klowns and humans – boasting various locations, randomly generated map layout and a multitude of tactical opportunities for both teams.
Unique approach to hide-and-seek gameplay, PvPvE, dynamic objectives leading to multiple match results – Killer Klowns evolves the online horror formula in new ways.
The Killer Klowns game was made in collaboration with the Chiodo Brothers, who serve as executive producers. The game's score also comes from the movie's composer John Massari.
