Techland Resurrects ‘Hellraid’ as ‘Dying Light’ DLC This Summer!
It’s funny how things work out. Back in 2015, Techland were working on Hellraid, a first-person fantasy slasher that was ultimately put on hold. Now it’s been resurrected this summer as a DLC for Dying Light!
Techland revealed the news on their official site, and have created a novel way of fitting Hellraid into the Dying Light universe. More information, including the actual release date, will be announced at a later time.
“It all started with an arcade machine survivors found in the Tower’s basement while investigating an odd power outage. None of them could remember seeing this strange device ever before. They moved it upstairs, unaware of its true nature.
Get ready for a completely fresh Dying Light experience! Based on Techland’s unreleased first-person fantasy slasher Hellraid, this paid downloadable content will expand the game with a dungeon map full of new enemies for you to slay with a variety of brand-new weapons. Whether you delve into the depths of Hell alone or join your friends for an exciting co-op will be up to you.”
Dying Light is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The sequel, Dying Light 2, is currently in production.
