The wait is finally over for those looking to snag Nightdive’s remaster of Lobotomy Software’s cult classic shooter in Powerslave: Exhumed. The revamped 90s shooter is available now on PC via Steam and GOG, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
Remastered using Nightdive’s robust and proprietary KEX engine, Powerslave: Exhumed takes the best elements of the original PlayStation and Sega Saturn versions of PowerSlave, and adds a bevy of new features, upgrades, and updates. In addition to now being in widescreen, Powerslave: Exhumed supports up to 4K resolution with 60fps, SMAA anti-aliasing, and anisotropic texture filtering.
The story takes place in the ancient Egyptian city of Karnak in the late 20th century, where alien forces have seized the city. A crack team of soldiers is sent to the valley of Karnak to uncover what happened. However, your helicopter is shot down, and you’re left to battle the aliens.
For those not in the know, Powerslave (also known as Exhumed in the UK) was originally developed by Lobotomy Software, and released for the PC, PlayStation and Sega Saturn back in 1996 and 1997. Given that it was up against the likes of Quake and Duke Nukem 3D, Powerslave was unfortunately overlooked by many.
Powerslave: Exhumed is available for $19.99 USD. And check out our take on the game, while you’re at it!
