Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games have released a new developer diary video for Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival, the survival-horror action game coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam on Oct. 8, 2026.
The video invites fans to join series legend Doug Bradley (voice of Pinhead) and the development team for a new deep dive on the game, this time learning more about the disturbing enemies and themes you’ll face on your journey and how the creation of this content affected the development team.
Horror fans will of course be familiar with the Cenobites, the infamous beings of extraordinary power from the Hellraiser films led by Pinhead. Demons to some, angels to others, the Cenobites don’t abide by easy rules of morality, instead driven to push the extreme boundaries of pain and pleasure. But while the Cenobites play a pivotal role in the story of Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival, players will have to battle against two other key factions.
The first is the Scarlet Church, a cult led by a charismatic figure named Marlowe. The Church hopes to establish contact with the Cenobites and seeks to use the mysterious Genesis Configuration puzzle box to create a debauched paradise for themselves.
The other group is the Unworthy, once-human wretches who sought after the ultimate experiences of sensation but were denied by Leviathan, ruler of the otherworldly Labyrinth. These rejects of Hell, monsters who think and behave differently from the cultists of the Church, are drawn to the Genesis Configuration as a potential path to redemption.
Both the Scarlet Church and the Unworthy will offer completely different combat experiences, each with their own challenges to overcome. Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival gives players multiple ways to fight back, including the infernal powers of the Genesis Configuration, an arsenal of earthly weapons, and a grisly dismemberment system. But beware – the Labyrinth has its own unsettling traps and challenges to survive.
