3D Realms, Sabre Interactive and developer Anshar Studios have revealed a new trailer for Painkiller, the upcoming reboot of the iconic series, which shows off the weapons players will have access to in the game. Check it out.
In Painkiller, you’ll unleash hell with seven bone breaking, flesh-ripping weapons. Each weapon offers primary and alternative fire modes, elemental effects such as fire, ice, electro and kinetic, and are upgradable with different abilities to provide unique bonus effects:
Electrodriver: Barrage enemies with rapid-firing shuriken that bounce off hard surfaces
Stakegun: Hurls high-damage stakes that can impale foes from long range
SMG: Unleashes loads of ammo in short, rapid-fire bursts
Handcannon: Decimate enemies from long range with deadly precision
Shotgun: Spits destructive pellets at short range that can damage and stagger multiple foes
Rocket Launcher: Discharges a rocket projectile with a devastating blast radius that can stagger even heavy enemies
The titular Painkiller, a versatile weapon with a brutal melee attack that hooks onto enemies and shreds them to pieces while refilling your ammo
The game is coming to PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S sometime this Spring, but a release date has not been set for the game at this time.
