The next The Texas Chain Saw Massacre update dropping tomorrow, September 5th, 2023, is going to temporarily remove PC from crossplay, separating them from the console player base, Gun Interactive has revealed. This action is in a bid to enhance the game’s anti-cheat tools and resources, and there is no date yet for the return of full-fledged PC and console crossplay.
This means that PC players will have to play with other players on the same platform until further notice, while PS5 and Xbox Series S|X are able to crossplay, but not with PC players for the time being.
Work on The Texas Chain Saw Massacre anti-cheat measures have already started, with some of it coming with this new update. The patch notes mention “added protection from additional cheat resources,” while tracking and logging for cheat detection has been improved and serving as a base for future improvements.
While Gun Interactive didn’t specify the kind of cheats that some players are using in the game, a Reddit post mentions a few actions that hackers may be taking advantage of, such as automatically and permanently opening all the doors in the map, or automatically eliminating victims whenever they want at the press of a button.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre released in August 2023 to great acclaim, and in our review we stated that “the anguish and thrills that it conveys are almost one of a kind, delivered with confidence and brutality to match the source.”
