Release Date: October 17, 2024
A remastered version of the FPP shooter from 1996, created by Nightdive Studios known for reviving classics. In Killing Time: Resurrected we visit a cursed mansion during the 1930s, dealing with hordes of monsters with the help of various weapons and solving puzzles.
Killing Time: Resurrected is a remastered version of the FPS titled System Shock Remake.
Killing Time: Resurrected takes us to the 1930s. Wanting to secure eternal life for herself, the wealthy heiress - Tess Conway - steals the water clock of Thoth, once belonging to Pharaoh Ramses, and performs a dark ritual in her residence on Manticus Island. However, things do not go according to her plan, as all the participants of the ceremony are turned into bloodthirsty monsters and apparitions.
During the game we take on the role of a former Egyptology student who, unaware of the danger awaiting him, comes to the Conway estate to take the artifact from Tess's hands. After crossing the threshold of the eerie dwelling, he has no choice but to grab a weapon and engage in a bloody battle for survival, as well as try to find and destroy the clock in order to reverse the curse.
In Killing Time: Resurrected we watch the action from a first-person perspective (FPP). While exploring the Conway residence and its backyard, we mainly eliminate hordes of enemies. We fight against adversaries using a wide range of firearms (led by the Thompson machine gun), as well as melee weapons, Molotov cocktails, or more sophisticated armaments, such as a flamethrower or a magical ankh cross.
Along the way we also have to solve various puzzles, collect vases with fragments of Tess's soul, and listen to the memories of seven guests of the mansion, thus learning about the dark history of this place.
Killing Time: Resurrected stands out from the original mainly due to its refreshed graphics. A characteristic feature of the original were the digitized characters played by actors, which we could watch not only in movie intermissions, but also during gameplay. For the needs of the remaster, their new high-resolution versions have been prepared. We can also switch to those known from the original Killing Time at any time.
In addition, the creators focused on textures and interface, prepared a special graphics package and modernized the controls.

Game Ratings for Killing Time: Resurrected Video Game.
TechRaptor: 9 / 10 by Austin Suther
Killing Time: Resurrected is a charming shooter that stands out for its vast map, mysterious mansion, and FMV cutscenes. Though weapon variety is middling, it's a fantastic experience through and through and greatly benefits from Nightdive Studios' enhancements.
SteamDeckHQ: 4 / 5 by Noah Kupetsky
Just like Nightdive Studios continually does, Killing Time: Resurrected is the definitive way to enjoy this title. It is definitely not a game I was expecting to see Nightdive tackle, and it's a new one for me, but the wacky real actors, story, and tight, responsive retro shooting sold me on it. With how weird the game is, and it being a retro shooter, it won't appeal to everyone, but it is definitely worth your time to try it at the very least. And with fantastic for the Steam Deck, this is a great first-person shooter to dive into wherever you are.
NookGaming: 8 / 10 by Andrew Camac
I absolutely love Killing Time: Resurrected and couldn't be more surprised, when I saw the fact this has similar origins to the horrendous PO'ED as a 3DO shooter. I went in expecting the worst and came out with a new game for my top 10 classic first-person shooters list. It's quirky, it's fun, and in my personal opinion, it pushed the envelope at the time. The game isn't going to be for everyone. It's almost punk in how janky and strange it looks and plays. But, if you can go in with an open mind and just allow yourself to get absorbed by the Water Clock and its mystery, you've got yet again another banger remaster by the kings and queens of remasters Nightdive Studios.
