Experience the beginning of the game and watch the new “Scarlet Church” trailer before the full nightmare launches on October 8

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Sept. 17, 2026 – Saber Interactive and Boss Team Games are excited to open the gates of Hell for the Steam demo for Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival, the upcoming survival-horror action game coming to PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 8. Available now, this new Steam demo lets players experience an early stretch of this Hellish original story. While you’re getting a taste of the gruesome thrills lying in wait, check out the game’s shocking new trailer, featured at this year’s Fantastic Fest at Alamo Drafthouse, which will introduce you to the twisted cult trying to create a debauched paradise for mankind: the Scarlet Church.

Playable Demo: Steam

In the brand-new Steam demo* for Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival, players can dive into the mysterious hellscape of the Labyrinth and face off against the wicked Scarlet Church, which has taken the coveted Genesis Configuration into its possession. You’ll be introduced to the main characters of the story and their twisted machinations while traversing an ever-shifting realm of nightmares. Discover the basics of combat, crafting and puzzle solving while preparing your body for the complete experience at launch!

The new trailer for Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival peels the skin back further on one of the game’s core antagonists: Marlowe and his sacred (or sacrilegious?) Scarlet Church. Backed by an army of unholy priests, deviants, and cultists, Marlowe seeks the Genesis Configuration puzzle box for his own devious ends. With every slice and drop of blood, the Scarlet Church recruits those bold enough – or foolish enough – to covet Hell’s blasphemous temptations and gifts.

Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival is now available to pre-order on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 for $39.99. The Deluxe Edition is also available to pre-order digitally for $49.99. Players who pre-order either edition of the game will unlock the exclusive in-game Labyrinth Pistol Skin and Martyr Sawblade Skin at launch.

Fans can also still pre-order one of two special Collector’s Editions of the game featuring a variety of exclusive, licensed collectibles at hellraiser.bossteamgames.com. Collector’s Edition pre-orders will unlock all Deluxe Edition and pre-order bonus content.

Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival launches October 8 on Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. For more info, visit www.HellraiserGame.com.

*Progress made in the Steam demo will not carry over to the full game at launch.
