If you’re in the mood for more asymmetrical multiplayer mayhem in the vein of Dead By Daylight, October Games’ Horror Legends might be your thing. Released last week, the devs have a DLC treat for those who’ve already taken the plunge: they’ve partnered with Full Moon Features to not only do a crossover with Ted Nicolaou’s 1991 film Subspecies, but the devs are creating a game based on Puppet Master!
Horror Legends pits legendary monsters against unsuspecting Cast members as the latter tries to achieve objectives in order to escape the level. The Legends can employ minions to wear down the Cast, making them easier to kill. However, the Cast have their own unique abilities and loadouts.
The first DLC for Horror Legends has October Games bringing the bloodthirsty vampire Radu Vladislas from Subspecies into the game, complete with Anders Hove reprising the role by lending his voice to Radu. In addition, the Subspecies are here as Radu’s minions, and increase in numbers as Radu feasts on players. The DLC also contains 10 Cast skins (aka the game’s Survivors), featuring Full Moon branded T-shirts.
But the bigger news is that October Games is working on Puppet Master: The Game, featuring the likes of Blade, Pinhead, Tunneler, Jester, Six-Shooter and more. There’s not much info at the moment on the game, although it’ll be coming to Steam in late 2022.
Horror Legends is available now on PC via Steam.
