Anshar Studios and Saber Interactive have announced that their new Painkiller will be released on October 9th. This is a modern remake of the classic action game and will include co-op gameplay. To celebrate, they also released a new trailer you can watch below.
In this remake, players can use powerful demon weapons to fight off endless waves of monsters. They will be able to battle these enemies alone or with friends.
Players will be able to jump, dash, and hook across vast biomes while fighting enemies with a host of new and classic Painkiller weapons. The tarot cards will also return. By using them, you will be able to enhance your abilities and combine them with other players to obliterate your foes.
The game will have four distinctive characters. These are Ink, Void, Sol and Roch. Each of them will have unique perks to boost their energy, health, power and damage.
Now I know that some may be put off by the focus on the co-op mode. However, I’ll give Saber and Anshar Studios the benefit of the doubt. At least for now.
Saber Interactive has not yet revealed the game’s PC requirements. As soon as it does, we’ll be sure to share them with you. Until then, you can watch its latest trailer.
Enjoy!
