Painkiller Unveils Brutal Rogue Angel Mode

The inclusion of roguelike elements in video game experiences is one of the trends that has taken hold in the industry in recent years, and not even the Painkiller reboot has remained indifferent. Publishers Saber Interactive and 3D Realms, along with developer Anshar Studios, have shared a new trailer to introduce Rogue Angel mode, which follows the roguelike genre's conventions.

This mode will offer procedurally generated arenas, with unpredictable drops and brutal enemies ready to greet the player, who will grow stronger with each run. The release date for the Painkiller reboot has been slightly moved forward, from October 9 to October 21, 2025: you will find the game on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
