New Playable Klowns Coming to Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game

by Justine Norton-Kertson

Fans of Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game have reason to celebrate, as the developers are gearing up to introduce brand-new playable characters inspired by the original concept sketches from the Chiodo Brothers, the creative masterminds behind the cult-classic film. This exciting update promises to deepen the game’s connection to the movie’s rich, zany lore while providing fresh thrills for players.

Leading the charge is Okie, a brand-new character who also happens to be the elder sibling of the iconic Shorty. Okie has been described as the "deadliest Klown in the galaxy," and his design, directly adapted from unused Chiodo Bros. concept art, embodies the eerie, otherworldly charm fans love. With his arrival, players can expect fresh strategies and chaotic fun as Okie joins the roster of extraterrestrial threats.

For those unfamiliar, Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is a 3v7 asymmetrical multiplayer horror game that pits Klowns against the citizens of Crescent Cove. The Klowns team hunts humans with bizarre weapons and quirky abilities, while the humans must scavenge for resources, evade capture, and try to survive the invasion. Developed by Teravision Games and Illfonic, the game has garnered attention for its faithful recreation of the movie’s quirky horror-comedy atmosphere and its innovative twist on the asymmetrical multiplayer genre.

This update marks another step in the game’s evolution as a live-service title. With the promise of more content inspired by the Chiodo Brothers' work, fans can look forward to even more outlandish chaos in Crescent Cove. Okie is just the beginning—what other Klowns might emerge from the vault of the Chiodo Brothers' imagination?
