From Press Release:
Running With Scissors, developer of the infamous POSTAL series played by millions, today unleashes a new trailer for Flesh & Wire, a dark and violent return to POSTAL’s original theme and setting
Feast your eyes on this first look at the antiheroine’s feline companion and otherworldly creatures lurking in a nightmare world brimming with secrets.
Meet Angel, a normal college student with her whole life ahead of her, and Solomon, her loyal sphynx cat. In a sudden muzzle flash of horrific violence, the two find themselves swept up in a waking nightmare of blood, conspiracy, and retribution.
Pursue all-consuming vengeance as the duo seeks answers, no matter the cost. Go on a bloody tear, crossing paths with law enforcement, the National Guard, and a sinister cult that will stop at nothing to prevent Angel from finding the truth – and how it all connects to franchise protagonist the Postal Dude.
Getting revenge on the Postal Dude won’t be easy. Beyond the armies standing in her way, Angel has to deal with her own darkness – inner demons born out of an act of wanton carnage that upended her life.
Press forward through real-world enemies and into the Dreamscape, where locations like the Megachurch turn into a new world shaped by fear and rage. Within the Megachurch’s Dreamscape location known as Deception, ungodly bosses like the Heavy lie dormant, festering with anguish and terror.
“Angel is the first time we’ve introduced a new protagonist to the POSTAL series, and she’s already resonating with both new and long-time fans,” said Vince Desi, founder of Running With Scissors. “Her story taps into the darkness that characterized the first game in the series, and today’s new trailer gives our community a first look at Angel’s feline companion, and the atrocities awaiting in Dreamscape.”
Flesh & Wire will be launching on PC via Steam, GOG, and PlayStation 5 in 2027. For more on Running With Scissors and the POSTAL universe, check out the official website, and follow Running With Scissors on TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and Discord.
About Running With Scissors
Founded in 1996 and still defiantly independent in Tucson, Arizona, Running With Scissors makes the games your mom warned you about. Best known for the long-running POSTAL series—an unapologetic blend of dark satire, slapstick ultraviolence, and free-speech mischief—RWS has steered the franchise through bans, cult fandom, a Hollywood adaptation, and more than two decades of community-driven mayhem. With a mantra of “pure, politically incorrect entertainment,” the studio continues to self-publish on PC and consoles, stream weekly dev shows, and license fresh spins on the POSTAL Universe.
