Overview
Description

POSTAL casts the user as a nameless surrogate character brought to the breaking point when his home in Paradise, Arizona is unjustly repossessed. Believing the repossession is part of a demonic conspiracy to dominate humanity, he unleashes relentless vengeance across 17 distinct locations. Navigate through a small town to a heavily guarded military complex using a third-person premeditated perspective. Employ strategic combat tactics against armed locals in this intense indie action horror experience developed by Running With Scissors.

Postal: Redux revives the controversial 1997 shooter with fully remastered HD graphics, all original levels, the Special Delivery add‑on, and the previously Japan‑only Tokyo and Osaka stages. A brand‑new level and updated audio bring fresh chaos while preserving the series' signature dark humor.
