Hellraiser: Revival (PC) REVIEW – The Wettest Game of the Year

The Hellraiser franchise began with Clive Barker's literary works and transitioned into a film in 1987, followed by nine sequels and a reboot. The latest installment, Hellraiser: Revival, is a narrative-driven single-player game that incorporates elements from various gaming genres, including a grim atmosphere similar to Condemned, a merchant system like Resident Evil 4, chase sequences akin to Outlast, hide-and-seek mechanics inspired by Alien: Isolation, abilities reminiscent of BioShock, and crafting systems typical of modern gaming. The story follows Aidan Lynch, who seeks to rescue his partner Sunny from Pinhead after a traumatic encounter. Aidan, portrayed by Xalavier Nelson Jr., is a flawed character who faces internal struggles, while Doug Bradley reprises his role as Pinhead. The game features dynamic combat with a variety of weapons and enemies, requiring strategic thinking. Despite some budget constraints and minor flaws, Hellraiser: Revival is noted for its impressive art direction and atmospheric design, without any microtransactions. A deluxe edition key was provided for the review.

Players can engage in combat in Los Santos with weapons from the Doom franchise, such as a minigun and BFG, while activating Hell On Earth mode with the F10 key introduces Doom 2 enemies. The gameplay features include battling demons and armed furries, with additional features like flossing and Superman mode also triggered by the F10 key, which can clutter the screen.
