Next year, developer The Outsiders and publisher Funcom will have you shooting demons and devils to the beat of headbanging metal music in their rhythm FPS game Metal: Hellsinger.
In the game, your ability to shoot on beat will increase your power and intensify the music. Each level will have its own song, and every song will be divided into multiple layers. Your performance will impact how many layers of the song will be played at a time, starting with atmospheric background music, and ending with powerful metal anthems.
Metal: Hellsinger features an original soundtrack with vocals from metal icons such as Trivium's Matt Heafy, Arch Enemy's Alissa White-Gluz, Mikael St. Anne of Dark Tranquillity and Björn Strid from Soilwork.
The Outsiders’ Creative Director David Goldfarb, who has previously been Lead Designer on Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3, as well as Game Director on Payday 2, says he has never had more fun creating a game, than he has with Metal: Hellsinger.
"We want to make this the most metal game ever," says Goldfarb. "Or get as far as we possibly could, anyway! To make something that felt like a tribute to the epic imagination and joy and fury of metal - not just in terms of music, but art style, characters, lore. Trying to do it has been an amazing joy and we can’t wait to get it into the world for people to play."
Metal: Hellsinger is due to release on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X in 2021. The game will be optimized for next-gen consoles, with improved visuals, up to 120 frames per second, and drastically reduced loading time.
