The reimagined version of the beloved action-FPS, Painkiller, is releasing probably a bit sooner than you think.
This unlikely reimagined version of Painkiller was first revealed back in March of this year. This reboot for Painkiller seems to look quite a bit more colorful than its original namesake. It will also feature co-op gameplay at release.
Today, we learn that Painkiller from 3D Realms and Anshar Studios will be released on October 9, 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam. The Standard Edition for Painkiller is $39.99 and is up for pre-order right now. Likewise, a Deluxe Edition is also up for pre-order for $49.99.
The Standard Edition of Painkiller is available to pre-order digitally today for $39.99 and includes the “Iron Crusade” skin pack as a pre-order bonus, featuring skins for all four characters - Ink, Void, Sol, and Roch - along with skins for six weapons: the Electrodriver, Stakegun, Shotgun, SMG, Hand Cannon and Rocket Launcher. Physical pre-orders of the Standard Edition on consoles will come with the retail-exclusive “Burnished Pride” weapons pack, which includes additional gold skins for those six weapons.
Painkiller’s Deluxe Edition is also available to pre-order digitally today for $49.99 and comes with the “Iron Crusade” pre-order bonus skin pack, as well as three additional post-launch DLCs, each including six weapon skins and four character skins.
Welcome to Purgatory! You’ve been sentenced for your transgressions against Heaven, but the Voice of the Creator is giving you one chance to redeem yourself. Blast through hordes of demons in brutal, fast-paced combat with an array of infernal weapons. Battle across gruesome gothic environments to stop the fallen angel Azazel’s invasion of Earth and earn your salvation – solo or in online co-op for up to three players.
