SAW: Genesis Announced as 3v1 Asymmetric Horror Game Set 100 Years Before Jigsaw
Bloober Team and Broken Mirror Games announced SAW: Genesis during the Summer Game Fest 2026 livestream on June 6, 2026. The game is a 3v1 asymmetric multiplayer horror title set 100 years before the appearance of Jigsaw, in the dark era after World War I. One player takes the role of the Host, a prototype of Jigsaw's ideology, who traps three participants in a space filled with traps and forces them to reform through pain and sacrifice. The three participants must cooperate to escape, sometimes choosing to sacrifice parts of their bodies. The game features procedurally generated maps for each match. SAW: Genesis is planned for early access release on PC via Steam, and the Steam store page is now live. The official website is recruiting participants for a closed alpha test. The release date has not been announced. The game supports Japanese display. Development is handled by Broken Mirror Games and Anshar Studios.
