The Berserker Splitter is the only TimeSplitter to appear in TimeSplitters: Future Perfect. They attack by shooting bolts of energy that track their enemies and can also turn invisible. They are similar to the Reaper Splitters in appearance, but they tend to walk on all fours rather than upright like the Reaper Splitter, seeming more animalistic and carnivorous in nature. Their skin has reddish hue in stark contrast to the Reaper Splitter's pale white skin. While Berserker Splitters have to walk to get to places, the Reaper Splitters can teleport to areas instantly (on the other hand, however, when dashing on all fours, the Berserkers can move much faster than any of the other types). If one pays close attention to their bloody claws, one can see what looks like mutated, human fingers, hinting at their origins.

The Berserker Splitter appears in the opening cutscene of TimeSplitters Future Perfect and is seen drinking the blood of a fallen space marine. It looks up to see Cortez's ship before going back to its drink. The Berserker Splitter is the strongest bot in the game, being one of few five star bots and having the greatest stamina; he however lacks in speed. Berserker Splitter is notably the only TimeSplitter to appear in TimeSplitters: Future Perfect.
Unlike in previous games where the TimeSplitters appear at the end of every level, Berserkers only appear in two levels set in 2401 and are fought throughout the levels. They also appear in four challenges, in which they act like they do in Story missions.
Story[]
- Main article: TimeSplitter
2401, Spacetime Marine Headquarters Area[]
- Main articles: Time To Split (TimeSplitters Future Perfect) and The Hooded Man
When Sergeant Cortez made it back to Earth, Berserker Splitters were populating the area around the Spacetime Marine Headquarters. The other Spacetime Marines tried to hold off the TimeSplitters to allow Cortez to reach the Headquarters.
Berserker Splitters can cause problems in Story Mode due to their immense speed. They can move faster than any of the original TimeSplitters, and are very strong bots, even on Easy mode.
Trivia[]
- It inherits its voice clips from TimeSplitter 1, TimeSplitter 2, Reaper Splitter & Drone Splitter.
- The Berserker Splitter is the only TimeSplitter type seen in Future Perfect.
- Berserker Splitter's Story AI will stand up on its hind legs and hold guns. If attacking, it will run human-like towards the player's position until the player is within sight. Only when it sees the player will it go into "berserker" mode, dropping any guns or inventory onto the floor, dropping to all fours, cloaking, and throwing lightning. Before seeing the player and going berserk, the Story AI can travel through teleports and cause doorways to toggle open. After going berserk, it cannot do these things.
- It shares its gesture with the Cropolite, but with different gesture dialogue.
- The Berserker bears a bit of a resemblance to the Shambler from Quake — both are large, muscular, lack a face, and their large mouths bare their oversized teeth at all times. In addition, they both have claws on their hands but not on their feet, and blood stains cover parts of their bodies.
