Can You and Your Buddies Massacre Across the Generation Gap? A Hilarious Look at Texas Chain Saw Massacre Crossplay
Ah, the Texas Chain Saw Massacre. A game that combines the thrill of running from a homicidal maniac with the existential dread of realizing you haven't gotten around to flossing yet. But what if you and your friends want to experience this delightful package of terror together? The question that chills you more than Leatherface's basement: Can PS4 and PS5 players team up and and fight (or flee) for their lives together?
Fear Not, Fellow Meatbags!
There is some good news to be sliced and diced! PS5 players can indeed team up with their PC and Xbox Series X/S comrades to create a chainsaw symphony that would make Leatherface himself proud. Crossplay is alive and well for these new-gen platforms, allowing you to form a ragtag bunch of survivors (or maybe even a particularly enthusiastic chainsaw-wielding family) regardless of your preferred digital stomping ground.
But Wait... There's a Saw in the Ointment
Now, before you start practicing your best scream, there's a crucial caveat: PS4 and Xbox One gamers are stuck in their own last-gen horror movie. Crossplay doesn't extend to these platforms, meaning you'll be limited to playing with fellow PS4 or Xbox One survivors. So, if your friend is clinging to their trusty PS4 like Leatherface clings to his chainsaw, you might be better off leaving them behind... or, you know, just throwing them a participation trophy made of spare ribs.
The Takeaway: A Hodgepodge of Helpful Hints
- PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC players: Rejoice! You can team up and traumatize yourselves together.
- PS4 and Xbox One players: Fear not, there's still plenty of chainsaw carnage to be had with your fellow console comrades.
- Everyone: Consider this a public service announcement to floss more often. You never know when you might need to make a quick escape from a chainsaw-wielding maniac.
In conclusion, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre offers a delightful dose of crossplay for the current generation consoles, but leaves last-gen players in a bit of a pickle. So grab your controllers, fire up the game, and just remember: if you hear a chainsaw revving, it's probably best not to investigate.
