Running With Scissors announced a first-person shooter titled Flesh & Wire, where players will take on the role of Angel, a young woman seeking vengeance against the Postal Dude from the original Postal series. The game is set in the Arizona desert and involves confronting military forces and traumatic memories. The narrative explores the consequences of the original game's storyline, particularly in relation to mass violence in America. There are concerns about the developer's ability to handle sensitive material due to their past issues, including a chaotic announcement last December that led to a game cancellation within 48 hours after fan backlash. Flesh & Wire is scheduled for release next year.
