Overview
- Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games announced an Oct. 8, 2026 release for Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, confirming the date in a trailer published Tuesday.
- Clive Barker worked closely with the developers on an original story and Doug Bradley returns to voice Pinhead, a move outlets say aims to preserve the franchise's tone and iconography.
- Gameplay is first‑person survival horror that mixes scarce‑ammo shooting, environmental puzzles and the Genesis Configuration puzzle‑box powerset, which grants abilities such as pyrokinesis, telekinesis and the Hell Chains for combat and puzzle solving.
- The release was promoted with an age‑restricted redband trailer and multiple previews that describe graphic sexualized gore; one preview suggested the content could merit an NC‑17 level of explicitness, a point left to formal ratings boards to decide.
- Saber priced the Standard and Deluxe editions at $39.99 and $49.99, announced pre‑order weapon skins and two Collector's Editions, and publishers and critics note the October timing places Revival in a crowded fall release window that could affect its visibility and sales.
