Cradle Games and publisher tinyBuild have announced that the Kickstarter-backed RPG Hellpoint will release on April 16th. Hellpoint is a dark sci-fi action RPG that takes place on Irid Novo. In order to celebrate this announcement, the team has also released a new trailer that you can find below.
Hellpoint is an intense, dark sci-fi RPG set on a derelict space station orbiting an ominous supermassive black hole. The game takes inspiration from games like Dark Souls and Dead Space and movies like Event Horizon and Hellraiser.
Moreover, Hellpoint will be doubling down on co-op multiplayer (with both split-screen and online support). It also promises to immerse players in a twisted narrative involving Cosmic Gods, quantum physics, and extinct space civilizations.
Here are also the game’s key features:
- Souls-like gameplay in a unique setting: Explore the derelict space station of Irid Novo and face bizarre enemies with a tight and unforgiving combat system.
- Occult space story: Blending science and fantasy, the intensely atmospheric dark sci-fi setting will keep you searching for answers.
- Dynamic World: The Quantic System acts as a dungeon master; slightly transforming the game world every time you die and triggering events as the station revolves around the black hole.
- Jump-in co-op and PvP multiplayer: Ask a friend to press Start to join a couch co-op session or call for assistance online. Hellpoint offers a full, uninterrupted co-op story with shared loot drops.
- Split-screen support: The full Hellpoint experience is available in jump-in/jump-out split-screen multiplayer on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
Enjoy!

Souls games are bloody great, I’ve just yet to see one ” souls like game ” that hasn’t been total sh!t.
Oh the irony.
What irony? Just because other studios can’t replicate the DS formula and gameplay, doesn’t mean it’s sh*t lol.
You lot need to learn to read before commenting or get a better education.
Yes of course, instead of ansewering me you continue with ad hominem. Good job.
Because you are to lazy to read and understand what is written right in front of you.
I’m not going to repeat myself, take a hike.
