Nightdive Studios has announced Killing Time: Resurrected, a remastered version of the 1995-released horror first-person shooter. It will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam, GOG, and Humble Store in 2024.
Here is an overview of the game, via Nightdive Studios:
About
Killing Time: Resurrected is a high-definition edition of the humorous horror shooter once described as “the bastard child of DOOM and The 7th Guest.”
Nightdive Studios and Ziggurat Interactive will bring this sophisticated shooter laced with gallows humor and visual violence back to bestow mayhem.
The original Killing Time quickly became a smash hit among fans of action, adventure, mystery, and puzzle games when it was released in 1995. 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.
Set in the early 1930s, Killing Time 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.
