Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival Devs Say BDSM Isn't Why Characters Die: "We Didn't Want To Demonise Fetish Or BDSM"

In horror game Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival, protagonist Aidan and his partner Sunny unlock a puzzle box that summons Cenobites, who tear Sunny apart and send her to hell. Game director Emil Esov and narrative director Antony de Fault say her death is not a punishment for her BDSM interests, and that the game depicts unhealthy ways of engaging with BDSM rather than demonising fetish or BDSM itself.
