Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival has a new playable demo out now on Steam ahead of its full launch on 8th October.

The short version

  • It arrived alongside a new trailer, Scarlet Church, which introduces the cult attempting to build a "debauched paradise for mankind" within Clive Barker's Hell.
  • Even the censored version is stuffed with gore, sex, torture, violence, and a lot of rubber - so viewer discretion advised and all that.
  • In the demo, players explore the shifting Labyrinth and face off against the Scarlet Church, which has taken possession of the Genesis Configuration, a coveted puzzle box central to the story.

What happened

It introduces the game's main characters and the basics of combat, crafting and puzzle-solving, though none of the progress carries over to the full release. Hellraiser: Revival is available to pre-order now for £35 (£45 for the Deluxe Edition, with either unlocking an exclusive Labyrinth Pistol Skin and Martyr Sawblade Skin at launch.

Why it matters

Two Collector's Editions, including a range of exclusive licensed collectibles, are also up for pre-order, and carry over all Deluxe Edition bonuses.
