It’s not long now. The wait is finally coming to an end. Our suffering has been legendary as we await the release of Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival. The highly anticipated game is set for an Oct. 8 release on both digital and physical disc, and every few days we’ve been getting new updates on just what sights will be shown.
Today is no different as we were just sent the news that a new demo is available on Steam for fans to sink their hooks into the game early. If that’s not enough pleasure for you, there’s a brand new game trailer, and it’s a doozy. Of course, it’s age-restricted, but just click on that video, and you’ll be taken to YouTube. From everything we have seen, this game is going to push the boundaries and trigger a lot of folks. We’re stoked.
We know many who have had this game on preorder for a long time, and with all the various perks and the reintroduction of Hellraiser to the pop culture scene, this is a great period for fans of Clive Barker’s twisted creation. With Halloween Horror Nights bringing Hellraiser to its lineup for the first time and a new comic book series coming from BOOM! Studios with Barker’s approval, 2026 seems to be the year of Hellraiser, and we’re finally glad everybody decided to catch up.
The Scarlet Church is a bit of new mythology for the Hellraiser universe but we dig where it’s going.
FROM THE PRESS RELEASE:
Led by Marlowe, this disturbing cult has its sights set on the Genesis Configuration and the power it represents. The trailer offers a closer look at the church, its followers and the lengths they are willing to go in pursuit of their vision. If you’ve been waiting to see more of what Hellraiser: Revival actually has in store for us, this latest footage pulls back another piece of the curtain.
The demo is probably the best way to scratch that Hellraiser itch while we wait for the full game. Just remember, this is Clive Barker’s world we’re stepping into, so don’t expect a pleasant little stroll through the Labyrinth.
Hellraiser: Revival will arrive Oct. 8 for $39.99, with a Deluxe Edition available digitally for $49.99. Players who preorder either version will receive the Labyrinth Pistol Skin and Martyr Sawblade Skin as bonus items when the game launches.
There are also two Collector’s Editions available for fans who want to go considerably deeper into the Hellraiser rabbit hole, complete with licensed collectibles and additional game content.
For those of us who have been waiting for a new Hellraiser game that truly embraces the world created by Barker, the clock is officially ticking. The Steam demo is available now, the new trailer is here, and the gates of Hell are getting ready to open. This is gonna be one kinky ass ride.
Oct. 8 can’t get here soon enough.
