‘Hellboy Web of Wyrd’ Out Now on PC and Consoles [Trailer]
Delays be damned. It’s time to punch the crap out of evil with Good Shepherd Entertainment’s Hellboy Web of Wyrd today on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam for $24.99.
Hellboy Web of Wyrd features the voice of the late Lance Reddick as Hellboy, with developer Upstream Arcade’s bringing a visually stylized adaptation of the Dark Horse Comics character that mimics the comics by Mike Mignola. The story sees players transported to the strange realm of the Wyrd. When an agent of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.) goes missing investigating the Butterfly House and psychic spikes are discovered across the globe, the world’s foremost hunter of the supernatural – Hellboy – is called in.
Track down your missing colleague while battling massive, fierce monsters across the Wyrd with devastating chains of melee and ranged attacks. All the while, you’ll be building Hellboy’s power into something that rivals the fiercest warriors of Hell. But be warned, because ancient evil stagnates within the furthest reaches of The Wyrd… evil that is eager to be let out.
Initially revealed last July, PQube and developer Electric Monkeys’ gothic horror survival title When the Light Dies is out now in Early Access on Steam. Complementing the release is a new trailer/gameplay guide. According to the press release, Electric Monkeys plans on having the roguelike to be fully released in September 2024.
According to the developer, the Early Access period will allow them to polish and address player feedback for When the Light Dies, releasing new updates containing everything from new enemies, weapons, items, passive upgrades, and dark magic abilities, to end-of-stage bosses. In fact, the next update for When the Light Dies is expected on May 28, which will include new items, a new weapon and an additional boss encounter “to add an extra level of challenge”.
When the Light Dies is a survival game with roguelite elements set in a desolate, frozen wilderness. You are a lone survivor fighting to keep the darkness and the horrors that lurk within it at bay. To do so, you must utilize your arsenal of weapons to hold back waves of creatures closing in from all directions.
That’s on top of keeping the light burning by lighting scattered firepits around you. You’ll of course have to refill your oil lantern to keep your path lit. As the light levels drop so does your sanity, resulting in faster and more deadly adversaries.
Right now, you can snag When the Light Dies with a 10% discount until May 16th.
