While we continue waiting for a new movie, Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is headed our way next year, an asymmetrical multiplayer game coming from Terravision Games and Good Shepherd Entertainment for consoles and PC. The game will allow you to step inside the 1988 cult classic, and the Chiodo Bros. are on board as producers/advisers.
The brothers have been patiently waiting for decades now to dive back into the world of Killer Klowns, and the game gives them a unique opportunity to expand upon the mythology. Chatting with ComicBook.com, the Chiodo Bros. tease what that means for longtime fans.
“However, we have also unlocked our treasure chest and shared our notebooks of ideas that we have been working on for 35 years with the team,” Edward Chiodo explains. “We gave them insight into the origins of the Klown race and tease at the possibility they’ve been visiting Earth for a very long time.”
He adds, “But it became clear very early on that the gameplay wouldn’t support the narrative of our continued stories for the franchise, but it would allow us to share many of the new weapons and antics we’ve been playing around with all these years. We’re really excited to say that fans can look forward to seeing some of our ideas for fun kills that we never got to put on film and also learn more about the Klowns’ larger mythology and world.”
Edward also tells the site, “We feel the gaming world will allow us to explore more diverse and outrageous settings in the future more easily than if we were bound to more traditional TV/Movie production limitations. It will be great fun to show how Klowns messed around with the Ancient Egyptians and helped them build things or who knows…..we might finally get to go to the Klown planet and visit that insanity one day.”
Stephen Chiodo notes, “We have so many ideas for amazing new Klown kill gags that we have been toying with and we’re thrilled to say that we were able to include many in the game. However, we have some ideas that don’t quite fit the medium of games, so we have a lot that we’re saving that we could pursue in the future. There’s just so much still left to explore and new dimensions of the Klown universe that we would love to bring to life for the fans.”
“Based on the iconic ‘80s film! In the battle between Killer Klowns and citizens of Crescent Cove, team up and use your wits to harvest humans or save them from the alien invasion! You can play as the Killer Klowns as you cooperate in a team of three players, utilizing their outlandish abilities and weapons as you hunt humans. Or, you can fight back as a team of seven human citizens of Crescent Cove – pick your class, explore the city for valuable loot and weapons, avoid getting captured by Klowns, and try to survive.”
You can choose from five classes of Killer Klowns and Humans, each with their own class and abilities that you unlock by levelling up. Humans share a pool of multiple respawns per match, so communication to beat back the Klowns is key! According to the developers, upon release, you’ll be playing on a map pulled straight from the 1988 film. They also state that they have “big plans” for future seasons that will keep you updating your strategies while playing.
Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game will arrive for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Learn more over on the game’s official website.
