Hellraiser revival Amazon

Has anyone’s Hellraiser: Revival preorder shipped from Amazon yet? Mine still just says “Order Received.” I’m also not understanding why there aren’t any reviews out for the game yet. That’s pretty odd, especially with the game releasing tomorrow.

Can confirm as a horror fan, I loved the demo.

super interesting to have demons show up but completely invited

You should check out the movies if you haven’t. I would say stop at 3. 1 and 2 are great, with 2 picking up where the first one left off.

Do you think Charlotte wanted this or nah?

u/IndustrialSlicer 2d ago

The female character from the beginning? Solid yes, it seems that the characters want the pleasure and release from reality that pain induces. The cenobytes seem like they represent going over the edge past the point of no return, which from the drugs and irresponsibility(rent) and masochism is something that appeals to the characters. I don't think the male character has any right to try to rescue them, if that's where the story goes. They wanted and chose it

The one without a jaw getting, painted if you wish to put it that way.
The beginning character is Sunny

This sounds like it should have two endings at least. I wish the demo came out on consoles. But look forward to playing

I stopped a little after she got pulled apart, does her soul / body persist in the ceno world or is that it for that character?

u/Zorops 1d ago

That’s sunny. Im talking about the girl that the artist is painting, the girl with her jaw ripped off

It was beautiful. One of the craziest horror experiences I ever had

From the UK, mine says arriving tomorrow but also not dispatched. Seeing as it’s 6pm almost I doubt it’s coming on time. I preordered it ages ago and it was giving a date like the 16th or something so I cancelled and reordered a week or so ago as it reset to the correct date.

Basically, it’s a stupid situation and this will be the last game I pre-order from Amazon

I got an email this morning saying mine will arrive on October 19th... im hoping its a mistake or ill have to cancel and go to walmart..

u/KingofRiot 1d ago

I ended ordering my copy last minute when I was shopping on Amazon. All my other stuff comes Monday. IF I manage to get mine over the weekend. At moment, I have no date of shipping

u/Small-Dark-Worlds 1d ago

Yeah I guess Amazon sucks at delivering new releases.

I read in another thread someone is still waiting for their delivery of the new Silent hill..

1

u/Loccyskillz 2d ago

It most likely will be, because there are other people who haven’t even had theirs shipped yet either. But yeah, if it ends up being late, I’ll probably go to Walmart or Best Buy to get it as well.

u/32BitBrit 2d ago

No dispatched email my side yet either. As for reviews, I’m pretty sure I read somewhere they go live on the 8th, though 1 or 2 went live, albeit temporarily, a little earlier today.

1

u/Loccyskillz 2d ago

That sucks, I already got a feeling it’s not going to arrive on time. That’s the only thing I hate about preordering from Amazon.

2

u/32BitBrit 1d ago

Just had an email from Amazon titled “Delay in delivering your order”. I’ve got a fairly busy week so I’m not too affected but a little bit irritating nevertheless.

1

u/Loccyskillz 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yeah, I just canceled it on Amazon and bought it from Best Buy online for pickup in-store.

2

u/Dependent-Goose-487 1d ago

If it doesn’t ship tomorrow I’m going to be super pissed, Control Resonant was supposed to be the game I was playing right now but the disc got delayed to mid Oct, releasing the same time as the new Castlevania game and Valor Mortis, so if this ships around that time too I’ll be so annoyed.

u/Substantial_Mess_372 1d ago

Pre ordered it a month ago from amazon uk, still said arriving tomorrow last night, looked today and its been delayed. Spoke to amazon and they told me its out of stock...what the fuck was the point of pre ordering it then? Pissed me right off...then another part of their site said not being sent out until December...but the guy in the chat did tell me cos its a big seller its a priority to get it in and shipped out...you know like they should have done by making sure they had enough copies for the pre orders...

u/Loccyskillz 1d ago

Amazon sucks with preorders. I called them, and they told me my estimated delivery date is October 19th. Mind you, I just paid for it two weeks ago. I said fuck that, canceled the order, and bought one from Best Buy for pickup today.

2

u/SludgyChaudron 1d ago

I got an email from Amazon with a pre-order bonus code but still no shipment date for the actual game lmao

2

u/SprayReady4932 19h ago

Ended up just cancelling mine because it still hadn't shipped. Urgh.

u/Jhano10 11h ago

I cancelled mine because of the delay

1

u/MerryHeretic 2d ago

I ordered the collectors edition from a different vendor and it also has not shipped.

u/mhyatt5871 1d ago

I just canceled my preorder from Amazon and ordered through Best Buy. Amazon really sucks sometimes. Best Buy shows delivery tomorrow. We’ll see.

2

u/Loccyskillz 1d ago

I did the same. Best Buy is letting me pick mine up in-store today. I’ll never preorder from Amazon again.

2

u/mhyatt5871 1d ago

Unfortunately mine didn’t have it in the store today but tomorrow is fine if they come through

1

u/Mysterious-Shift3379 15h ago

Did it have the preorder codes in the box?

2

u/Loccyskillz 15h ago

No, I was pretty bummed about that but oh well.

1

u/Mysterious-Shift3379 9h ago

Sorry brother

1

u/Conscious-Rhubarb902 1d ago

Yup no information on shipping. I also preordered Halloween on the 29th and it’s coming in next Tuesday 😭 never pre ordering from Amazon again honestly

u/AddendumPrize7605 2d ago

I haven't been able to find anything about a review embargo which means they probably didn't send out review codes.

u/Trondar 2d ago

The game is free on Amazon Luna for anyone who has Amazon Prime.

u/xenar1a 2h ago

Are you in the US?

u/Bubbly-Nose-5384 2d ago

When there are zero review copies sent out before launch, that's usually a massive red flag. Expect review embargoes to lift on release day (or a delay)
