Summer Game Fest delivered a chilling surprise with the reveal of Saw Genesis, the newest entry in the long running horror franchise. The announcement arrived with a tense first trailer, confirming that the series is stepping into the world of multiplayer survival horror.
Asymmetrical Gameplay Takes Center Stage
Saw Genesis adopts an asymmetrical format, echoing the structure of games like Dead by Daylight. Three players take on the roles of survivors trapped in one of Jigsaw’s deadly scenarios, while a fourth player controls the threat hunting them down. The setup promises a mix of strategy, tension and unpredictable encounters as players attempt to outsmart both the traps and each other.
Details Still Under Wraps
For now, Saw Genesis has no release date or additional information. The developers plan to share more in the coming months, leaving fans to speculate about maps, traps, killers and how deeply the game will draw from the film series’ iconic torture puzzle aesthetic.
