Hellraiser: Revival Known Issues and Fixes: Trophies, Saves, Patches

The short version: the two PS5 shop trophies stop tracking after the first store, Hellraiser-difficulty players report save problems at the start of a run, and collector's-edition shipping sits with Boss Team Games, not Saber. As of the October 12, 2026 check of the official Steam news feed, no patch notes have appeared since launch day — the workarounds below are all you have.

Every known launch issue at a glance

Status as verifiable on October 12, 2026; none of it is developer-confirmed.

The bugged shop trophies and the manual-save workaround

PowerPyx flags exactly two glitched trophies on its trophy roadmap, both tied to Zora's shop economy:

The warning is blunt: tracking "stops working permanently" if the two trophies are not earned at the first shop. The loop:

1. At the first Zora shop (about an hour in), use the manual save point directly to the left of the shop.
2. Sell everything in your inventory.
3. Buy what Zora will sell you, sell it all again, and repeat until your money runs out.
4. If neither trophy popped, reload the manual save and repeat.

A Quiet Place (graveyard stealth) also has reports of never unlocking; the recovery is to reach the church door, reload the most recent autosave, then insert the key. The Steam list is unaffected: 69 achievements against 44 console trophies, broken down on our achievements page.

Hellraiser difficulty save problems

Hellraiser mode is the only difficulty built around scarce Save Tokens, and it can only be picked when starting a new game; the other three switch at will. It has produced launch-week complaints:

The most concrete report is a Reddit thread titled "Hellraiser Difficulty Save bug?", posted from a base PS5, about finding the first save token just after the knife fight. A parallel Steam thread argues the supply itself is too tight ("save token before that. It's infuriating"). Both are community reports, not developer-confirmed issues: no official statement covers them as of October 12, 2026, and we could not verify whether that save point is broken or simply stricter than players expected. Our difficulty and saving guide details how each mode allocates saves; the beginner tips cover token management.

Performance and visual complaints on PS5 and PS5 Pro

Performance targets are official: 30/60 FPS on PS5 and Xbox Series X, 30 FPS only on Xbox Series S and Nintendo Switch 2, per the Saber FAQ. The complaints sit on top of those targets:

• Raised black levels on PS5 Pro. An r/hellraiserthegame thread reports washed-out black levels in the console's graphics settings, with replies suggesting an HDR check. No developer response.
• General instability. Tom's Guide's reviewer finished the roughly 10-hour campaign on PS5 Pro and lists recurring faults: slow textures after loading, enemy bodies morphing into furniture, framerate drops in large fights, a late-game save station that refused to work, the storage box eating a revolver, the final boss going unresponsive twice, and looping final-cutscene dialogue.

Collector's edition delays: Boss Team Games is responsible

Saber's official FAQ answers shipping questions by pointing elsewhere:

Official source: Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival FAQ — Saber Interactive support

"Please be aware that Boss Team Games is responsible for the sale and fulfillment of these versions of the game, and, as such, we are unable to provide additional information - including about shipping - to players. For anyone with specific questions regarding their pre-ordered Collector's Edition, please contact Boss Team Games directly ([email protected])."

Around that line sit launch-week complaints: r/hellraiserthegame threads ask who has a tracking number, report missing digital codes on direct Boss Team orders, and one reads "First and last time I order directly from Boss Team Games." A PlayGround.ru item dated October 9, 2026, carried in the game's Steam news feed, reports buyers angered by the delay. One clarification: the October 30, 2026 date in the FAQ is for Nintendo Switch 2 retail cartridges, a separate schedule. Pricing is on the editions page, and our is-it-worth-it verdict covers buying at launch right now.

Patch status log as of October 12, 2026

The official feed (entries labelled Community Announcements) has no patch-notes post since launch; third-party outlet items also appear there — read the source column:

The developer's stated plan is unchanged: patches expected, DLC not.

No launch patch version number can be quoted honestly until a post appears in the feed.

What to do until a patch arrives

1. Do the shop loop first — manual save left of the first Zora shop, then grind both trophies.
2. Never lean on one save — eight manual slots per playthrough slot, spread across the run.
3. Empty the storage box before a story-critical stretch — one reviewer lost a revolver to it.
4. Back up your save data — no chapter select means a corrupted slot costs a fresh 8–12 hour run (length estimates).
5. On PC, treat community tools as risky — save editors exist; see the trainer status page first.
6. Watch the official feed for patch notes — the walkthrough hub updates alongside this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a patch for the bugged trophies yet? Not as of October 12, 2026. The newest patch-notes entry in the official feed is the September 21 demo patch, which predates release — the workaround above is the only known route to both trophies on PS5.

Are the shop trophies broken on Xbox and PC too? PowerPyx describes the tracker failure specifically on PS5 and lists exactly two glitched trophies. We found no equivalent confirmation for Xbox or PC — assume neither that it is universal nor that it is absent.

Who do I contact about a collector's edition? Boss Team Games at [email protected]; the FAQ says Boss Team handles fulfillment while Saber cannot provide shipping information.
