Painkiller, the reimagined action-shooter from Saber Interactive’s 3D Realms label and Anshar Studios, will launch on October 21 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. A new gameplay trailer debuted during the Horror Game Awards Halloween Showcase, spotlighting the game’s brutal combat, gothic settings, and three-player online co-op.

Players step into Purgatory to battle the fallen angel Azazel’s forces across sprawling, grotesque environments. Armed with both classic and new weapons, you can fight solo or join up to two friends online to carve through demonic hordes and uncover secrets hidden in twisted landscapes.
Beyond its main campaign, Painkiller introduces “Rogue Angel” mode, a roguelike experience with procedurally generated arenas, boss battles, and loot progression. Players can also choose between four distinct characters—Ink, Void, Sol, and Roch—each with unique traits that shape combat strategy.
The game offers both Standard and Deluxe Editions, with the latter including a Season Pass and additional skins. All pre-orders come with the “Iron Crusade” skin pack, while physical pre-orders add the “Burnished Pride” weapon skins.
