If you've seen any of the Terrifier movies then you know it's all about Art the murder clown doing gratuitously unspeakable things to anyone he comes across, with anything he comes across. It's a tough sell for a game, which is why Terrifier: The ARTcade Game (shown off during FGS Live From Los Angeles) takes a retro co-op beat-em-up approach - it's much easier to pummel someone's face 💟to mush with a spi𒆙ked club in pixel art form.

Like the films, this retro fighting beat 'em up is packed with gore and dark humor, with gameplay heavily inspired by 80s and 90s arcade action. Playing as Art, or other characters from the series like Vicky or the Pale Girl, it's up to you to battle your way through a range of locations which are all movies sets where a film about Art is being made. Obviously, Art isn't there to help production, so it's down to🍬 you to disrupt proceedings as brutally and as bloodily as possible.

and as we speak, with Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch on the way later.
