SAW: GENESIS is a 3v1 multiplayer horror game in which three Accused are pressure-driven to work together to escape a potentially fatal maze of traps while a single Judge orchestrates their trials, imposing diabolical tests and forcing impossible moral choices where survival comes with a cost. Set in the grim aftermath of World War I, SAW: GENESIS lets players take part in either side of this unnerving confrontation in intense matches played on procedurally generated maps.

SAW: GENESIS is a game with a unique take on asymmetrical mechanics grounded in SAW logic. Players can choose to be the Judge, whose work later inspired Jigsaw, and pull strings from behind the scenes to shape the fate of those trapped within the game. Alternatively, players can take on the role as one of the Accused, who take their lives for granted, and must strive to escape the lethal labyrinth set by the Judge through teamwork, trust, and sacrifice.
