Let’s hope you’re happy with your decision. Whether it was accidental or not, unfortunately once you kill Kelvin, he’s gone for good. No going back with this one.

That’s right, you’re unable to revive him or respawn him after you’ve committed the deed.

He’ll let you know when enemies are nearby and collect useful items, so we recommend he stays alive for your sake!
