A Hellraiser game is in development
Calling all gamers with a love of horror films: Hellraiser is getting a video game adaptation. Saber Interactive is turning the cult franchise into a game called Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival. Clive Baker's 1986 novella, The Hellbound Heart, served as the basis for the Hellraiser films. He also wrote and directed the first instalment, which premiered in 1987. Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival is a single-player game that has you play as Aidan while fighting your way through an "action survival horror experience." You also must deal with Pinhead, who's known for harvesting human souls — yeah, this is a creepy game. As Saber Interactive states, "The Hellraiser universe is defined by its unflinching exploration of pain, pleasure, and the thin and terrifying line that separates the two. That essence is at the heart of our game." You can see for yourself in the announcement trailer. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so. The team at Saber Interactive took an additional step to ensure fans of the movie franchise are happy. They spoke with Clive Barker, himself, to maintain an "authentic" storyline. There's no word yet on exactly when Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival will launch, but more announcements should come this year. It will be available on theXbox Series X and S, PlayStation 5, and the PC through Steam.

Clearly not too busy with the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake, Avatar game, and more, Space Marine 2 devs are teasing something new, and fans think it's a Hellraiser title
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The developer of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is teasing an announcement for next week, and fans are convinced it has something to do with 80s film franchise Hellraiser. Saber Interactive is quite busy at the moment, with the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake, John Carpenter's Toxic Commando, Jurassic Park Survival and Space Marine 3 all in development at the studio right now. Now, it's released a teaser that some are taking as a hint at a game based on the Hellraiser franchise. Saber posts a tweet featuring a teaser video, which shows a CRT TV flashing images at a wall with a circle of candles around it while a mysterious voice speaks, all under a VHS filter. Alongside this is the teaser website / which features a similar filter over the game's reveal time of 1pm UTC (that's 2pm BST / 9am ET / 6am PT) on July 22, 2025. It's not taken fans long to speculate on what it's teasing. One user responds saying "it's Hellraiser!! You can hear Doug Bradley Pinhead speaking," while another responds to Saber CCO Tim Willits saying: "I heard chains, definitely Pinhead." When you look at that teaser website you do get a flash of an image, which features a sign that says 55. And when I – who admittedly knows nothing about Hellraiser – searched for a link between the films and the number 55, it turns out that 55 Hillcrest is the address of the Cotton family from the film, so that's definitely some compelling evidence that it could be Hellraiser. It's worth noting that Pinhead was featured in Dead By Daylight in 2021, but back in April of this year, he was removed from the in-game store. I don't know if I'm thinking too much into this but perhaps Saber's new game is its own asymmetric multiplayer game based on Hellraiser, just like the games based on Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Friday The 13th. Of course, there's a chance that all of this is coincidental and Saber's upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender game is going to some real weird places. Silent Hill creator is conscious of his age and wants to "pass the baton on to the next generation," but the horror icon's got at least one more game up his sleeve. Solve the daily Crossword

Jurassic World Evolution 3 preview: baby dinosaurs go global
GameCentral gets a hands-off demonstration of the next Jurassic World Evolution, which is shaping up to be the most in-depth dinosaur sim yet. The Jurassic Park franchise might be past its glory years in terms of enjoyable blockbuster movies, but it's a different story in video games. Jurassic Park: Survival from Saber Interactive looks pretty promising based on its first trailer, and in 2021 we saw the best interactive adaptation of the series to date in Jurassic World Evolution 2. Developed by Frontier, the sequel refined and expanded on the original dinosaur park management sim from 2018, with plenty of nods to the movies. If you're unfamiliar, it's essentially RollerCoaster Tycoon spun through a Jurassic Park lens, where you build a park, manage the happiness of both dinosaurs and guests, and try to avoid causing a velociraptor outbreak in the middle of piling up profits. As revealed earlier this week, Frontier is developing another sequel which will launch across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC on October 21. Jurassic World Evolution 2 had some drawbacks, most notably in its thin campaign mode, but the improvements in this third entry are more robust and widespread than you might expect. In a hands-off preview session, Frontier debuted several new features in Jurassic World Evolution 3. The biggest, at least on the adorable scale, is the addition of baby dinosaurs. You can breed these through nests, either by creating a comfortable environment for your adult dinosaurs and hoping for the best or, if you're too impatient to wait for natural horniness to strike, setting up a breeding programme led by some dork scientists. On the surface, this might seem like a cutesy marketing ploy to hook those susceptible to the sight of a baby Triceratops. However, mechanically, it comes with some surprising depth. There's an entire system based around passing down traits of dinosaurs to their offspring, which you can modify and dictate via the breeding programme route. Each dinosaur also has a fertility scale, which naturally fluctuates with age, so you have to strategise when is the best time to endorse dino bonking season. Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. The benefits of fostering baby dinosaurs will have a long-term impact on your park too. If you can maintain a family lineage of dinosaurs within the park, this will lead to extra bonuses and profits as a valued attraction among guests. In a neat additional detail, you'll have to adapt your enclosure around them too. In the preview, the example highlighted was a baby long-necked Sauropod, which might require a raised platform to munch leaves off the high trees like its parents. Beyond babies, the other striking improvement is the maps themselves. There's a stronger global focus, with Japan and China among the locations, alongside destinations across Europe and the US. The maps have a greater sense of verticality too, with rock formations and sloping water features you can build around, which all look impressively detailed. More Trending This plays into the expanded customisation tools for creating parks. At the brush of a cursor, you can alter the terrain on the fly, whether carving out canyons, implementing waterfalls and having the water trickle down sandy slopes, or applying a rocky texture to create an organic quality around your enclosures. It looks intuitively designed, easy to execute, and makes creating actual parks look far more enticing and versatile overall. In general, Jurassic World Evolution 3 is trying to become a stronger creative sandbox you'll want to mess around with. You can now design buildings right down to the specific angles of tiles, colours, and blocks, or alter presets with personal flourishes, like a T-Rex skeleton looming over the doorway or themes inspired by the movies. Better yet, these creations can be shared with others through the Frontier Workshop, so if you're lazy or creatively stunted, you can apply the designs of others into your park or visit other people's for inspiration. If you're more into the chaos management side, Frontier teased a new campaign, although it didn't show any footage from it. However, the story will take place after the last film, Jurassic World Dominion, and will task you with trying to integrate dinosaurs at various maps around the world, under the guidance of Jeff Goldblum's Dr Ian Malcolm. The campaigns in previous games have been little more than a glorified tutorial, but this sounds like it will be more substantial in scope. The developers at Frontier concluded the preview with a spinosaurus swimming out into a bed of water, created using the expanded terrain tools. The confirmation of semi-aquatic dinosaurs might be a small reveal to outsiders, but it's representative of what's promised with Jurassic World Evolution 3 – a sequel where every addition deepens the greater whole. We'll have to play it ourselves to see how the new aspects come together, but based on this early look, this is easily the most promising reason to stay invested in Jurassic Park.
