Saber Interactive's 3D Realms label teams up with Anshar Studios to bring Painkiller back next year. The classic shooter returns with a fresh take, launching in fall 2025 across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC through Steam. Players can enjoy this fast-action game alone or team up online, blasting enemies to heavy metal music. The debut trailer shows off scary monsters and dark gothic settings waiting for players in this modern version of the famous series.
You start the game stuck in Purgatory after making Heaven angry. Luckily, the Creator gives you one shot at saving yourself. You'll use crazy weapons from the original Painkiller, plus brand-new ones against demon armies and giant monsters. Play by yourself or join two friends online through detailed gothic areas to stop the fallen angel Azazel from attacking Earth and earn your way back to Heaven.
The game lets you move around quickly - jumping, dashing, and using a hook across huge, creepy areas filled with nightmare creatures. Combat happens fast and bloody with many weapon choices. You'll face all kinds of scary enemies, from small demons to the massive Nephilim, who are Azazel's monstrous children. Upgrade your abilities with tarot cards, build your weapon collection, and work with others to destroy everything in your path.
Players pick between four different characters - Ink, Void, Sol, and Roch - each offering special advantages to your energy, health, power, or damage during fights. The game supports playing with up to two friends online or with computer-controlled partners if you prefer. You'll explore many different places, find hidden secrets, and battle terrifying enemies throughout your journey. Look for Painkiller on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam starting fall 2025.
