Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival, one of our most anticipated horror games of the year and FANGORIA cover star, hits platforms on October 8, which Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games unveiled a new developer diary breakdown of the survival-horror action game featuring Pinhead himself, Doug Bradley.
The Standard Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival dev diary is below, but if you're looking for the much grislier, Red Band trailer, you'll find it on the official website right here:
Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival delivers a terrifying new story in the legendary Hellraiser universe as players take on the role of Aidan, who must use the power of a mysterious puzzle box – the Genesis Configuration – to help his girlfriend Sunny’s escape from the otherworldly hellscape of the Labyrinth:
Battle for your love in an unholy war against Hell’s most deviant wretches, cultists and creatures with the infernal powers of the Genesis Configuration puzzle box and an arsenal of earthly weapons. But will you be able to hold onto your immortal soul against the malicious domination of Pinhead (voiced by series icon Doug Bradley)? Or will you succumb to your vices and suffer for eternity?
Players will be able to wield the Genesis Configuration to take advantage of its unique powers, including pyrokinesis, telekinesis, and the franchise’s iconic Hell Chains, as well as use it to solve puzzles and transform parts of the Labyrinth. To rescue their one true love, they’ll have to fight deviants, cultists, and infernal priests to save their immortal souls, all while thwarting the Cenobites’ sinister plans.
Hellraiser: Revival will be available in two special editions when it hits shelves on October 8, the standard edition, retailing for $39.99, and the deluxe edition, retailing for $49.99. Details on the deluke edition are forthcoming, but players who pre-order either version will unlock two exclusive in-game items: the Labyrinth Pistol Skin and the Martyr Sawblade Skin.
Fans can also purchase special collector’s edition bundles through Boss Team Games, which feature a copy of the game along with special themed collectibles. The “Genesis Edition” ($130 USD) features the game, an exclusive trading card pack, and your very own Lament Configuration, from which you can choose the original version from the film or the new version designed for the game. An upgraded “Cenobite Edition” ($200 USD) features all three of those items, plus a special cenobite statue, a steelbook case for the game, an art book and print of the game’s Pinhead design, a poster, and an enamel pin set, all in a collector’s edition box.
Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival arrives on Steam, PlayStation 5, and XBox Series XIS on October 8.
