You play as Daniel Garner, a regular
guy who gets killed in an horrific car crash while taking his
wife out for her birthday. She, being the saintly woman she is,
gets admitted to Heaven. Daniel, due to his shady past, does not.
He finds himself in Purgatory -- a place somewhere between Heaven
and Hell. It isn't long before Daniel is recruited by his "caseworker
for the dead" to fight the minions of Hell. You see, Lucifer is
plotting to overthrow Heaven, and is using Purgatory as a staging
ground. Your offer is simple: stop Lucifer's armies and earn your
heavenly reward.
Painkiller is a first-person shooter set in the sinister world of
gothic horror. As the mercenary known as Painkiller, players are
charged with the task of eliminating the undead in whatever lair,
tomb, or residence they may be lurking in. Dressed in a black
overcoat and wearing sunglasses to protect himself from the
harsh glare of sunlight, Painkiller has earned a reputation for
his no-nonsense approach to demon hunting. Yet he also hides a
secret: a pact with a demon has granted him special powers at
the expense of his humanity.
Painkiller must fight his way past hordes of undead creatures
while freeing whatever is left of their souls. With every 100
souls collected, Painkiller can transform into a ghastly creature
himself, using its physical strength and ferocity to engage
multiple demons at once. Players will also have at their disposal
an arsenal of ranged weapons, all of which feature primary and
secondary attacks. Painkiller uses the Havok physics engine
(Thief III, Deus Ex: Invisible War) for its interactive 3D
environments and details such as moving clothes, rippling
water, and crumbling walls.
