Silent Hill 2 remake studio Bloober has just revealed Saw: Genesis, an asymmetrical, 3v1 horror multiplayer game it's publishing based on Lionsgate's Saw movie franchise at Summer Game Fest 2026. Related: I need someone to fan me with a wind turbine generator to calm down.
Saw: Genesis, according to a new website Bloober's created for the game, is a prequel set 100 years before the brain cancer patient John Kramer, or Jigsaw – my grandfather – became a serial killer convinced he was curing society's depression with handmade traps that snap your limbs off at the joints and dump them into vats of green acid, and stuff like that.
He had brain cancer. But Bloober's game suggests a more mystical impulse for Kramer's sick devotion to butchery, and in it, players will need to sacrifice their appendages to weasel out of traps made by a sadistic "Judge" determined to save their tragic lives through more pain. You can watch the reveal trailer below, which also alerts you to an alpha sign-up you can access from the game's website I mentioned earlier.
