Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games are opening the gates to your worst nightmares by bringing Hellraiser: Revival to PC and consoles. Legendary horror demon Pinhead is making a comeback in a new single-player survival action game set in Clive Barker’s frightening and disturbing franchise universe. The iconic Cenobite will be voiced by original actor Doug Bradley, who returns after a nearly two-decade absence. Author Clive Barker has also worked closely with the developers to create a new original story, where a man named Aidan must risk the dangers of the puzzle box and battle a Cenobite-worshipping cult in order to rescue his love.
Per Press Release:
“Working on the first true Hellraiser game has been a venture deep into the recesses of my darkest imaginings,” said Clive Barker, horror legend and creator of Hellraiser, who has been a guiding hand for the game’s unique story in the Hellraiser universe. “The dedication that Saber and Boss Team Games have shown is nothing short of remarkable. They’ve immersed themselves in the Hellraiser universe, capturing its essence—the seductive pull of suffering, the beauty within the grotesque—and forged a narrative that invites players to step beyond the threshold. I’m eager for both the curious and the damned to experience this new chapter in the Hellraiser mythos, where every moment balances on the brink of nightmare and revelation.”
“Hellraiser is the quintessential horror franchise, and lends itself perfectly to a video game, Saber has had success with horror IPs in the past, and working alongside Clive to create tense gameplay and a new story that delves into the twisted depths of pain and pleasure has been a real treat. We look forward to opening up the gates of hell.”
-Matthew Karch, CEO and co-founder of Saber Interactive
