These two killers are famous among horror movie fans as two of the goriest killers out there. Although there are several alternatives the developers could have chosen, none fit theWarzonedesign as well as Jigsaw and Leatherface. Jigsaw is known for his intricate traps and carefully planned operations. The iconic doll mask has become only more terrifying when scaled to human proportions and the killer is set to unleash his plans upon Verdansk. Meanwhile, Leatherface has a much more direct approach. Rather than wielding a large chainsaw, this monstrosity is taking up firearms for his hunting practice. The famed murderer and master tanner will be stalking the streets ofWarzone’s Haunted Verdanskin search of his next set of victims.
To be clear, these are just skins that are being added to the game. Players will be able to purchaseSawandTexas Chainsaw Massacrebundles through the in-game shopalongside several other cosmetic options. There will be additional horror-themed packs in addition to these two iconic villains, but none are predicted to be as complete as theirs.
TheSawbundle will include Billy the Puppet skin for Morte, the Phlebotomizier Lethal Equipment piece, a unique throwing knife that drills targets upon impact, and two SAW-themed blueprints for weapons. One is an assault rifle, the other a shotgun and they come with a small little tricycle charm along with some other personalization options.
As for Leatherface, this crazed killer’s pack will be including the Leatherfaceskin for Velikanalong with the “Family Heirloom” LMG blueprint. This comes with a unique Stock that allows the weapon to be wielded as if it was a chainsaw. The bundle will also include the “Anybody Home?” melee blueprint which turns a secondary into a hammer, and SMG blueprint, and five other assorted items themed to the killer’s movie.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
