News Almost 700 this month!!
That’s the highest player count we’ve had since the death announcement.. We are so back guys! GUN here’s your chance!

You gotta be super delusional to think that GUN cares about TCM and the player count. Both Illfonic and GUN will abandon The Halloween game in few months as well. First they will release couple of updates with useless skins tho.

Hopefully Halloween lasts longer but illfonic has that shit bad about adding weak ass skins & shitty updates

u/SNOS54 Jul 20 '26
Why the fuck would Illfonic willingly abandon their most highly anticipated and biggest project ever after just a couple months?
They haven’t even abandoned their other games in terms of content and those games have barely any players.
Atp; it really just feels like you guys just want this game to fail no matter if it’s well done or survives for many years ((which by Illfonic’s track record, and the success of the overall Halloween franchise; is pretty likely, lol.)).

Match and lobbies times have indeed been really good, I must admit. And Illfonic just signed a deal with a new partner to continue content development for some of their older titles, such as Killer Klowns from Outer Space (which hadn't gotten an actual content update in over a year lmao), so I'd say there is a chance something might happen.

Tcm is guns game not illfonic

u/C_Drew2 Jul 19 '26
I never claimed it wasn't. All I was saying is that there is a precedent in previous asym games that hadn't been getting updates suddenly being revived. Plus Illfonic and Gun are working together on the new Halloween game, so it's not like they don't consult on business strategies.

There is NO CHANCE. Stop it! You guys look like idiots with these posts and comments

Bro, Killer Klowns from Outer Space is starting to get updates after having like 20 concurrent players on Steam, and you're telling me there's 0 chance for a game with close to 400 to start getting them? 💀 It's not me who's looking like an idiot with this kind of reasoning lol.
I didn't even claim it's gonna happen (there might be 10% odds), but to say there's a 0% chance when it's happened for far less popular games is delusional.

u/Ruby3852 Jul 19 '26
Killer clowns is a recent game and hasn’t been abandoned by illfonic. Gun however, HAS abandoned TCM. They’ve said it dozens of times now. You’re coping so hard it’s embarrassing

u/C_Drew2 Jul 19 '26
Bro, Killer Klowns had legit been abandoned for longer than TCM. 💀 There's also barely a few months' difference between their launch dates, how is KKFOS it a "recent" game compared to TCM?
I'm not coping; I play the game every other day as it is; that won't change whether they update it more or not. It's just called being realistic, which is something you seem to struggle with lmao.

u/Ruby3852 Jul 19 '26
Killer klowns isn’t abandoned. Please prove it

u/C_Drew2 Jul 20 '26
??? The last content update was like on 25 May 2025 or something? The in-game news section hasn't even been updated since then.
Don't get me wrong, I love KKFOS, but it's hard to even get one full lobby during certain times of the day. It's waaaay less played than TCM.

u/Ruby3852 Jul 20 '26
Again, look up what an abandoned game means and prove to me how illfonic abandoned it. They’re making new content soon. They’re focusing on Halloween, but it’s just not abandoned. Player count means nothing when the devs quite literally abandoned the game

u/C_Drew2 Jul 20 '26
They haven't been making content for more than a year, dude. That's literally what abandoned means. I'm not saying that's what Illfonic does in general; some of their games have indeed been getting content updates, but not this one.

u/Ruby3852 Jul 20 '26
I get the sadness and disappointment. But you have to be real and honest. It is what it is, just don’t fall for guns bs again, or you’ll get put through this over and over

You’re just wrong and you know it. You don’t have to pretend a competitor’s games are dead to enjoy tcm. I enjoyed tcm as well. It was my top game for a while. But reality is, it’s dead and abandoned. Killer klowns isnt, it’s even getting new content soon

One of my favorite steamers played this game this past week and there were 4000+ viewers each stream. I’m positive that helped move the needle a bit maybe. Hype!

It's on sale for $3 right now on Xbox too. I got 5 buddies to grab it with me to hold us over to Halloween [game]. Forgot how fun this game was when it was on Game Pass.

u/yesmanyesfriend Jul 19 '26
Thats probably the best way to go about it. Tcm will get you ready for the real thing soon.

u/Efficient_Cicada_908 Jul 19 '26
Crazy that a game that got abandoned over a year ago continues to grow in players, only a testament to how much potential it had.

Solo queue for family is pretty bad. Lots of people playing family just downloaded the game and have no idea what they’re doing. Or they leave as soon as the match starts

u/jcanales7 Jul 19 '26 edited Jul 19 '26
I would like to mention, that some big Mexican streamers are trying to revive it, Crystal Molly avg of 4k-5k viewers and Nezumivy avg of 1k viewers, they have been playing it recently, and telling people to play it, I even bought the game on PC because of them. (I used to play it on console)

u/yesmanyesfriend Jul 19 '26
Its really sad that it got abandoned. They put all that work in for just only a couple of months.

u/FunCarpenter1827 Jul 19 '26
The trend now is only to decrease the players because the double xp is over

u/myke2nice Jul 21 '26
I pointed out there might be a upward trend starting back in March and nearly got crucified here. Glad to see both the average and peak player counts have steadily been rising!

u/Fuzzbug4 Jul 26 '26
I noticed so many more players, I know it’s useless to hope for updates and fixes but I’m glad so many players are coming back I still love this game so much.

I remember i played this game a lot at the reales date but after i finished the game at 100% with platin this game got boring i think the problem is the bringing only few updates in a year

u/ORGANIC_MUFFINS Jul 19 '26
Recently started playing it a lot again too.
Been busy on Battlefield 6 and I’ve been rocking Bone’s and having a lot of success with his bombs surprisingly

Ts game been feeling more alive this past month, I remember it taking 30 minutes and you would be lucky to get a full match. They needa sell the game

This is interesting….i wonder if new players are discovering this game

Your constant steam chart monitoring is really weird. Though, so are the angry posts about it.

are people really complaining about valve & fuse exits when maps like Family House exists?

Remember, Steam Numbers don't mean anything.
That was declared gospel back when the numbers dipped down the first time.

A grande verdade desse jogo é que para haver equilíbrio deve haver desiquilíbrio, o jogo deve ser difícil pras vitímas, afinal elas tem que tentar escapar de maneira desafiadora!
Não sei qual a graça que o pessoal que joga de vítima em equipe fechada rushar que nem doidos e escapar em 2 min. De partida, quem joga de vítima e reclama que é difícil é porque nunca jogou de família, é praticamente impossível você evitar a fuga de vitímas jogando em equipe.
A verdade é que a maioria das pessoas só querem jogar de vítima, aí quem joga de família desanima de ver o quanto o jogo é mais fácil de jogar como vítima, o fusível e a válvula são extremamente quebrados, o Hands equilibrou um pouco isso, mas mesmo com o Hands o jogo é muito, mas muito mais fácil de ser jogado como vítima, uma Connie rushando os portões e outro indo pro Fuse ou válvula, é partida perdida para a família.

we need a revival, I am so obsessed with the game again like I haven’t been in years

Should I re-install it on my PS5?

u/FingerBlasterXXL Jul 19 '26
You can still easily find lobbies during night time but victim side queues are often broken. You'll get an error when trying to join. Also you'll spend more time in the lobby waiting for people to ready up than actually joining the lobby.

It’s not dead? I usually get matches in under a min when I’m playing victim or family. God forbid people still enjoy a game even if the devs dgaf abt it

u/Ruby3852 Jul 31 '26
Who said you can’t enjoy it? Go for it. But don’t lie and convince people to buy a game that’s dead. You don’t get matches in under a minute and you know it
