Some people say that love can be bittersweet, and in Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival, developer Saber Interactive is looking to show players just how twisted romance can really be. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the studio has dropped a new trailer for the upcoming first-person survival-horror game, revealing more about its story and gameplay, and even offering a brief tour of the eternal realm of torment the Cenobites call home. There’s also some NSFW content here, so consider yourselves warned.
Described as a new chapter in the cult-classic horror series, Hellraiser: Revival will see players explore the depths of the underworld as Aiden, who must use the power of the Genesis Configuration puzzle box to rescue his girlfriend, Sunny, from the Labyrinth. This dark domain is full of depraved Cenobites, and if dealing with them isn’t bad enough, players will also have to be mindful of Pinhead–voiced by his original actor Doug Bradley–as he manipulates them from the shadows.
The trailer even shows a few more classic Cenobites who accompanied Pinhead in the movies, like the disturbing Chatterer and the Female Cenobite who has a mutilated larynx.
