If you fancy some cyberpunk ninja action to spice up your new year, Ghostrunner will receive a new DLC on January 27. Project_Hel will let players take control of Hel, one of the game’s original bosses, as she begins her own quest. I hope that’s evil. I love watching what antagonists get up in their spare time.
This expansion was originally designed to be a smaller thing, but the developers decided to evolve it into a larger experience. You’ll have to do all the wall-crossing, cutting and dashing as you can before, but this time it’s Hel, who will have her own abilities in the game. There will be new enemies, bosses and music too.
One of the best parts about playing as a boss is that she can take multiple hits. The previous player character won’t be destroyed as soon as they take some damage, but the bosses are a bit stiffer, allowing them to take full two hits. Luxurious.
Matthew had a good time with Ghostrunner when he revisited it last year, though he did cause a few significant deaths thanks to its combat and challenging parkour.
“I’ve heard the designers cite Titanfall 2 as inspiration and here are the same six hours where each level adds a ten-minute mechanical shift before moving on to the next,” he said. he wrote in Ghostrunner Reviews. “You’re hacking billboards to navigate. No, you’re flying drones between rooftops. Actually, you’re dodging signs hanging low over the top of a train. It never does. boring.”
Here’s hoping the new expansion can keep up with that excitement. Project-Hel is set to release on January 27, 2022. You’ll be able to get it on PC via Steam, NS Epic game store, and GOG, as well as PlayStations, Xboxes, Nintendo Switch and Amazon Luna, for £12.49.
It’s remarkable there’s a Ghostrunner sequel in the works too. Even so, I hope we’re a long way from seeing more of that.
