Painkiller
PlayStation 5 · 2025
About this game
PAIN allows players to put a character into an urban environment to create as much chaos as possible.
Launched from a human-sized slingshot, the player's character needs to complete specific goals or inflict as much damage as possible by stringing together painful collisions, similar to Truck Dismount and Stair Dismount .

After setting the power and rotation, the player can steer their ragdoll through the environment (a force called Ooch in the game), similar to the way post-crashes are handled in the Burnout series.
The game's environment is set in a downtown area and six different game modes are available with the initial release.
Single-player modes: Mime Toss (grab a mime in mid-air and hurl the the silent artiste through a number of panes) PAINdemonium (sandbox gameplay) Spank The Monkey (target monkeys to take them out) Multi-player modes: Bowling (up to four players bowl themselves while the other players can throw mimes, anvils, explosives or cereal in his path) Fun With Explosives (target crates strategically to cause big explosions) HORSE (launch a powerful shot to cause a maximum amount of damage, the other player has to do better) By doing well, trophies can be unlocked in the trophy room.
About PlayStation 5
Launched in late 2020, the PlayStation 5 introduced ultra-fast SSD loading and ray tracing to mainstream console gaming. It's still early in its collecting life cycle, but the Digital Edition (no disc drive) has already created a meaningful split in the market between disc-based and digital-only PS5 owners — something collectors should keep in mind when comparing prices for the "same" game.
Gamevaro tracks Painkiller for PlayStation 5 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Painkiller to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS5 release dates back to 2025.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Painkiller, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 5 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
