Painkiller: Battle Out of Hell

Description

Battle out of Hell, which requires the base game, takes place directly after the events of Painkiller. Daniel Garner has just defeated Lucifer and finds out that Alastor has taken over the armies of hell. In ten new singleplayer levels, with notable locations such as an orphanage, a ruined city, the zombie-infested Leningrad and an amusement park with a wild roller coaster ride, you have to prevent Alastor from attacking the gates of heaven.

For replay value, there are different goals while playing: finishing the level, meeting different challenges (kill a certain number of enemies, use only one weapon) and specific goals such as collecting all secret items or smashing every object. Meeting these challenges gives you black tarot cards with special abilities. Each level also has a batch of new enemies.

Two new weapons with dual firing modes have been added: the Boltgun/Heater and the SMG/Flamethrower. Additionally, the graphics engine has been updated for the expansion as well as the base game.

The awkward netcode from the original game, which has been rewritten for the Painkiller: Hell Wars Xbox version, has been implemented in this expansion pack. Two new multiplayer modes have been added as well: Capture the flag and Last man standing.

Just like Purgatory, it's in the middle of things.	dreamstealer (92)
More of the same classic run and gun chaos, with all new stuff, now even slicker.	Nick Drew (370)
