ExeKiller, the Retro Sci-Fi Western You Need to Play in 2025
Imagine a world where Red Dead Redemption collides with Fallout, that’s ExeKiller, an upcoming sci-fi western RPG from Paradark Studio, targeting a 2025 release for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. The game throws players into a dystopian wasteland shaped by catastrophe, where the remains of New York stand as a decaying monument to corporate power.
You play as Denzel Fenix, a ruthless bounty hunter working for Helion Corporation. His job: track and “execute” rogue targets using advanced tech that extracts their very essence. But Denzel’s mission turns personal when he discovers a truth that makes him the hunted, forcing him into a brutal fight for survival across scorched deserts and neon-lit ruins.
A Dystopian Wild West
ExeKiller offers a semi–open world filled with hostile factions, toxic environments, and player-driven consequences. Every choice influences dialogue, faction relations, and even the game’s multiple endings. Players can freely explore hub zones by car, uncovering new regions as the story unfolds. A dynamic dialogue system allows for conversations even while driving or in combat, keeping immersion unbroken.
Tech, Morality, and Survival
Combat rewards creativity. You can go in guns blazing or take a stealthier, tactical route. Denzel’s hacking skills let him manipulate tech and enemies, turning the environment into a weapon. Instead of traditional XP systems, players progress through augments and scavenged technology, encouraging exploration and risk-taking.
Paradark Studio continues to tease updates through development diaries and X (Twitter), showing off visual fidelity and deep moral storytelling. If executed well, ExeKiller could become the next cult classic, a retro-futuristic ride through morality, madness, and survival.
