Running With Scissors Reveals Flesh & Wire, New IP Coming in 2027

Expanding the POSTAL universe played by millions, Flesh & Wire introduces a new anti-heroine

TUCSON, Ariz. – Feb. 26, 2026 – Running With Scissors, the (in)famous creator of the POSTAL series, which has amassed millions of fans over nearly three decades, announces its first-ever spinoff title. Flesh & Wire, a dark and violent return to POSTAL’s original theme and setting, will arrive on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and GOG in 2027, as revealed in the IGN Fan Fest showcase.

Join forces with Angel, a seemingly normal college student suddenly swept up in a fever dream of conspiracy, blood, and vengeance. Along with her loyal sphinx cat Solomon, Angel runs afoul of the law, military, and an ominous cult. Discover the truth about her connection to the events of the first POSTAL game – and seek revenge on the series’ protagonist, a man dubbed the Postal Dude.

As she trails the vicious and enigmatic figure across Arizona, Angel’s past traumas come back to haunt her. Venture into the Dreamscape, a surreal and otherworldly hallucinatory state where memories, monsters, and Angel’s immediate surroundings blend together and warp into a grotesque nightmare version of reality.

Summon every bit of grit, determination, and buckshot available. Angel will need every spare bullet and bandage to get the answers she’s seeking and vengeance for the tragedy that changed her life forever.

“Flesh & Wire is an idea we’ve been talking about internally and with our community for a long time,” said Vince Desi, founder of Running With Scissors. “With POSTAL, we’ve explored satire and our own sense of humor as the series has progressed. Now with Flesh & Wire, we’re returning to our dark, psychological horror roots - another genre we trailblazed.”

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.
