NeverDead

The protagonist is an immortal and is able to survive severe injuries. Over time, the player loses body parts and will have to collect the removed limbs by rolling into them. Players can cause large objects to crush nearby enemies, harming them but not the player themselves. The Gameplay also features puzzle elements. A female partner assists the player, however she is not immortal and the player gets injured trying to protect her.

The player controls a wisecracking human demon hunter named Bryce, who was cursed with immortality five hundred years ago by the demon king Astaroth. Now in modern times, he hunts demons for money and revenge with a female private investigator in order to stop a demonic invasion that has nearly destroyed the city.

NeverDead was directed by Shinta Nojiri, and developed by Rebellion Developments.

NeverDead received "mixed or average" reviews from critics, according to review aggregator website Metacritic. In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of all four eights for a total of 32 out of 40.

The Digital Fix gave the PlayStation 3 version a score of seven out of ten and said that "its successes far outweigh its failings and for every frustration such as the pitch black sequence (where you have to set yourself on fire to find your way out) there are multiple moments of humour backed up by a solid combat system. It's not going to change the shape of gaming or be remembered forever but it far exceeds any claims that the body destruction element is a gimmick and nothing more. NeverDead deserves to be played but a sequel only deserves to happen if Konami and Rebellion give Bryce the world and freedom you will want to see him in."
