Tema: Summer Camp: Survival de Tom Savini

Tom Savini will bring the slasher genre to PC, PS4, Xbox One with Summer Camp



Tom Savini, the wizard of gore responsible for Dawn of the Dead and Friday the 13th, has teamed up with Gun Media to create Summer Camp, a splatter-themed game for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Wes Keltner, the founder of Gun Media, is heading up the project and he has also recruited Harry Manfredini, creator of the “Ch Ch, Ch, Chhh, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ahhh” sound from Friday the 13th, to compose the soundtrack.

“This is my love letter to the classic films of the slasher/splatter era,” said Wes Keltner, Founder and Creative Director of Gun Media. “I want that experience of being helpless, running for my life against an unstoppable killer. But I knew I needed help to do it right. Who else could I turn to for a campy, 80s slasher than the Sultan of Splatter, Tom Savini? His FX defined the splatter/slasher genre.”

Summer Camp will be a third-person survival horror game set within the spooky confines of Camp Forest Green (Easter Egg Alert! Camp Crystal Lake was known as Camp Forest Green in Friday the 13th Part VI). A masked killer is on the loose and players will take control of a teen counselor attempting to survive the night in the multiplayer game. Working together with five-to-seven additional counselors, players will work together to evade the killer. However, if you identify with Jason more than those naughty oversexed teens, you can also play as the killer and stalk your prey until the morning light.

Gun Media plans to create an entire series of games based on 80s-style splatter movies and Summer Camp is just the first entry in what they’re calling the “Slasher Series.”

No es que sea ultra fan de los slasher ochenteros (porque me pilló más en la generación de ver los noventeros y porque aquellos vistos hoy en día huelen en su mayoría a viejuno y han perdido) pero si de los survival horror, así que estaremos atentos.

Versión de la saga "Viernes 13", ademas se confirma que Kane Holder volverá a ser Jason (o una versión muy parecida, ya que, en principio, no es una adaptación oficial).La música la pone Harry Manfredini, quién se encargó de la saga cinematográfica. Parece ser, que se planea como saga, ya que el título completo es "Slasher vol.1:Summer Camp". Quizás en el volumen dos, se aproximen a la saga Halloween. Lo malo, es que parece ser es que es un juego multi, un jugador será el asesino, y el resto las victimas. Lástima, no me van mucho los multi.
