Nightdive Studios and Ziggurat Interactive announced that “Killing Time: Resurrected,” the HD remaster of the cult-classic horror boomer shooter, will launch on October 17, 2024, on Windows PC and consoles. Often dubbed “the bastard child of Doom and The 7th Guest,” the two retro gaming and preservation powerhouses have revitalized “Killing Time” for a new generation of players.
Set in the early 1930s, “Killing Time: Resurrected” casts players as a former Egyptology student trapped in the estate of wealthy heiress Tess Conway. Ms. Conway’s ritual to bestow eternal life backfires, and her high-society friends vanish without a trace. It’s up to players to find and destroy the mystical Egyptian Water-Clock to undo its curse and face a legion of supernatural horrors.
When it was released in 1995 on PC and 3DO, the original “Killing Time” quickly became a smash hit among fans of action, adventure, mystery, and puzzle games. “Killing Time: Resurrected” features toggleable high-resolution character artwork/sprites from the original 3DO and PC versions of the game, upscaled environmental texturing, smoother gameplay, more responsive controls, and expanded control and key-bind settings.
The remaster also allows players to face off against enemies from both 3DO and PC, utilizing weapons that were once exclusive to each version of the game.
“Killing Time: Resurrected” will be released on October 17, 2024, on Windows PC via Steam and GOG, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Fans can wishlist “Killing Time: Resurrected” now.
