All of it feels metal as fuck too.Įach new level is inhabited by familiar swathes of demons for you to mutilate with your shotgun, crossbow, or classic old katana. Every level – each a new circle of Hell – has its own individual theme and design too, from a frozen mountaintop, to worlds of broken pyramids with their peaks floating in the sky, or an almost-steampunk cog world. It’s a testament to the level design that it never gets boring, as each wave is made up of different combinations of nasty critters, from giants swinging axes, to toxic bloatflies regurgitating toxic vomit, to angels firing beams of heavenly light.
If 2020’s BPM: Bullets Per Minute established the metal rhythm-shooter, Metal: Hellsinger perfects it, adding a thick layer of polish to almost every aspect of the games that preceded it.Ī wide variety of demons throw themselves at you as you progress through the depths of Hell, each arena adding larger waves and different enemy types to the fray. It’s like Doom: Eternal meets Guitar Hero, and it works very, very well. It’s a first-person shooter where your weapons do more damage when you pull the trigger on the beat – and will completely whiff if you’re offbeat. If you haven’t seen the trailers, heard the concerts, or played the demos for Metal: Hellsinger in recent months, then you’re in for a treat. Metal: Hellsinger may not have the strongest story, but that means little when everything else is big, brash, and brilliant fun. This particular road trip has thousands of demons standing in your way and a playlist of original songs by metal legends like Tatiana Shmayluk of Jinjer, Matt Heafy of Trivium, and Serj Tankien of System of a Down. But none of that really matters, because Metal: Hellsinger is all about the journey. Now you must descend the depths of Hell in order to challenge the Red Judge to fill your lungs and sing your hellish song.
You’ve found a talking skull who wants to help you reclaim it.
