Metal: Hellsinger burns brightest when the music explodes and demons die, which happens all the time. This is a game in which you use weapons of infernal design to annihilate hordes of demons to the beat of a multi-award winning heavy metal score.
Today the dream of the beast DLC adds two new voices to the already sizzling cast of artists. Lacuna Coil’s Cristina Scabbia and Lorna Shore’s Will Ramos join the likes of Serj Tankian, Alissa White-Gluz, Matt Heafy, Randy Blythe, Dennis Lyxzén and more.
Accompanying today’s DLC we have a free update that adds the Song Selector feature, which allows you to choose which song you want to kill on for each level.
screams and dreams
After seeing the love for Metal: Hellsingers Original music, from critics, awards and players, we knew we had to add more. It’s always daunting to expand on something people really like. After all, you’re here to make the hells fear the beat, so damn this beat better be good. But with Two Feathers, the composers of the original soundtrack, both writing new songs, we felt confident.
It might sound a little crazy, but both new songs were written specifically for Cristina Scabbia and Will Ramos before they actually agreed to be in the game. It was definitely a gamble, and our nails were hit hard in the weeks before the answers came in, but it paid off.
In the end everything came together and both songs, Leviathan (Ramos) and Dream of the Beast (Scabbia), are absolute showstoppers that exude a lot of energy. Ramos and Scabbia are masters of their craft and we are incredibly proud to have worked with them.
The beauty of adding new music (and song choices) to the game is that it unlocks so much variety. Because the gameplay is so closely tied to the music and its rhythm, playing to a new song completely changes the flow and feel of each level.
Conductor’s tools
Besides the new songs dream of the beast adds a new weapon and three powerful outfits equipped with gameplay modifiers. Our goal with this DLC is to satisfy both aspiring and experienced headbangers. The mosh pit welcomes everyone.
A multi-barreled machine gun, the Red Right Hand is a cross between heaven and hell. A severed hand rests at the base of the barrels, eager to load bullets into them. The unique variable shot pattern – two heavy triple shots in a deadly rapid-fire tremolo – will prime your brain for a new, faster game flow.
The three outfits allow you to channel the look of your inner demon while providing your choice of gameplay modifiers. Depending on your choice, you can gain shields or heal over time when you pick up rage reinforced, or Increase your maximum ammo capacity with successful quickloads.
We can’t wait to see you all hurtling through hell with the bone-shaking power of Scabbia and Ramos. We hope you get lost in the intersection of music and gameplay. dream of the beast is available now for Xbox Series X|S.
