![PowerSlave Exhumed (PC) Gameplay (Classic Metroidvania FPS!)
Although it may look like a generic 90s FPS at first glance, PowerSlave is anything but that. Originally released in 1996 for the Sega Saturn, PowerSlave is unique in that it features a Metroidvania-like structure in which you must acquire special abilities in order to open up brand new paths in earlier levels.
This version of the game, PowerSlave Exhumed, is a remaster from Night Dive Studios and Throwback Entertainment that essentially combines aspects of the original Sega Saturn release and the 1997 Sony Playstation port while tossing in a bunch of modern features like widescreen support, achievements, and more.
Its also worth mentioning that PowerSlave saw a DOS release in 1996 shortly after its Saturn debut. Oddly enough, that version of the game is wildly different from its console counterparts. Not only does it run on a different engine (an early version of 3D Realms Build engine, no less), but it also features drastically different level design and essentially abandons the original Metroidvania format altogether. Although that version of the game isnt represented here, its still available in all its glory over at GOG if youd like to check it out via the following link:

PowerSlave Exhumed is now available on both Steam and GOG via the links below. If you enjoy 90s first-person shooters and are after one that breaks the mold, I cant possibly recommend it enough. Bonus points if youre a fan of Metroidvanias in general!

[Sidenote: As some may have noticed, I shortened Ramses opening dialogue in order to try and improve the videos pacing. The other post-mission briefings were left untouched, however. If this bothers you, I sincerely apologize.]
