What Media is saying:
- IGN – ” Amusing minigames let humans stay engaged even after they’ve completed their role in a match – especially if you’ve got survivor’s guilt.”
- RollingStone – “Killer Klowns from Outer Space has the potential to be the most stupidly entertaining game to play (or watch) all summer.”
- Bleacher Report – “hilarious” “fun chaos” “nails the vibe” “impressive” “a blast to play” “a fantastic foundation” “a fun debut that will keep players entertained”
Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game is a 3v7, asymmetric horror multiplayer experience. Unique to this category, the game evolves the online horror formula by pitting a team of three Killer Klowns against seven scrappy Humans. Where the game stands out – the Klowns aren’t the only hunters… whereas others in the category feature a hunter vs the hunted, Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game gives Humans a chance to be the aggressor, the escape artist, or master the art of hide-and-seek. With the backdrop of Crescent Cove, the game will launch with five maps that explore all parts of this Klown-captured community.
Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game is based on MGM’s iconic 80’s movie and was made under the guidance and support of the original creators, the Chiodo Bros. Fans of this IP will see easter eggs cleverly placed throughout the game, including an ice cream truck that just might save your Human. From Klown tricks and weaponry to Human customizations that hark back to the movie, this game will surely bring a wild experience for film fans, as well as asymmetric and multiplayer gamers. Most importantly, this is just the beginning… IllFonic will unveil its post-launch roadmap soon!
Gameplay Features:
- Take on the role of the iconic Killer Klowns – Three players team up, utilizing the unworldly abilities of familiar faces like Spikey and Shorty, hunt Humans with wacky weapons, and control the alien invasion to harvest the population of Crescent Cove successfully.
- Fight back as a team of seven brave citizens of Crescent Cove – Take on one of several roles and explore the city for valuable loot and weapons while avoiding the Klowns and their traps, which are as dangerous as they are silly.
