AsTerrifier 3makes waves in theaters around the globe, the revelation of a new “Blood-Soaked” video game inspired by the frightening series was not on everyone’s bingo card. Some horror movies from childhood have stuck with fans for eons, and theTerrifierfranchise is one of thoseiconic series that intrigues and terrifies most viewers.
The highly-anticipated slasher filmTerrifier 3is out now at the cinema, but one thing fans may never have expected was a video game inspired by the gore and gruel from the franchise. While the title is not nearly as gruesome as the movies, the beat-em-up retro game known asTerrifier: The ARTcade Gamepromises both delights and frights once released in 2025.
Everything Confirmed For The Terrifier Video Game
Splatter, Hack, & Slash As Art The Clown
While there are not a plethora of details available at this time, there are a few major features withinTerrifier: The Artcade Gamethat have been revealed. Players, of course, willtake on the role of Art the Clownfrom the series, as he attempts to destroy movie sets where the films about his horrific acts are being filmed. Much like in the movies, players willgo on a bloodthirsty rampage, ripping through hordes of enemies such as police, various law enforcement, camera operators, and even makeup artists, with ease.
Terrifier 3 Review: Gruesome Franchise Entry Spends Way Too Much Time On The Wrong Character
Art the Clown is back in Terrifier 3 for more stomach-churning mayhem but his colorful kills aren’t enough to brighten a drab entry in the franchise.
The animation style takes inspiration from arcade games released in the 80s and 90s, and will also feature a multiplayer mode, a massive arsenal of weapons to increase the carnage, boss battles, and finishing moves that might just putMortal Kombatto shame due to thegorey mess created.
Our Take: The Art Style May Not Be Expected
That Doesn’t Mean The Title Doesn’t Look Amazing
As a slightly over-enthusiasticTerrifierfan, I can say that this arcade-style game was not the first idea I would have imagined. Given the majorlydisgusting and graphic contentthat I have come to know and love from Art the clown, an 8-bit style pixel title does seem like a bit of an odd choice, but it doesn’t make it the wrong choice.More retro-style arcade games have been making a major comebackover the past few years, and the fact that Art the Clown is involved is even more of a reason to get into the genre.
Is Terrifier 3 Really That Violent? Why It Makes People Throw Up
Terrifier 3 is reportedly so violent that its making audiences throw up while they watch it, and a few different scenes are the main reason why.
It is worth noting once again thatTerrifier: The Artcade Gameis not set to release anytime soon, as the developers simply state the title is set to launch on Steam, Nintendo Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2025.However, the game’s announcement is perfect timing, asTerrifier 3hits movie theatres today, October 11. Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see how Art the Clown slashes and smashes through hordes of enemies once more details surface forTerrifier: The Artcade Game.
