Maybe this one won't be dead by dawn?
Fresh off of the delisting of its asynchronous horror title Evil Dead earlier this year, Saber Interactive has now announced it’s hard at work on the single-player Hellraiser Revival.
“Hellraiser: Revival is a single-player, first-person action survival horror experience that will put you into the dark world of Clive Barker’s twisted imagination,” said Saber’s Tim Willits. “From the moment we started this journey, our team has poured every ounce of passion, creativity, and determination into crafting what we believe will be the definitive Hellraiser gaming experience.”
In it, you’ll play as Aidan, a protagonist armed with melee and ranged weaponry, “and use the mystical powers of the Genesis Configuration to take down unholy enemies,” according to Willits.
Saber has also confirmed it has consulted with Hellraiser creator Clive Barker himself as part of production.
“The Hellraiser universe is defined by its unflinching exploration of pain, pleasure, and the thin and terrifying line that separates the two. That essence is at the heart of our game,” Willits said. “We are embracing everything that makes Hellraiser unforgettable and weaving it into an experience designed to leave you shocked, exhilarated, and, yes, just a little bit disturbed.”
More on Hellraiser Revival will be shared this year, though we don’t know when to expect the game as yet. It’ll be made available on Windows PC via Steam, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
