Hellboy
Set out into the world of Hellboy Web Of Wyrd and see just how Hellboy is going to handle some of the challenges ahead
It has been a little weird here since the announcement for Hellboy Web Of Wyrd, as we were wondering how the game would actually play based on what we saw. There was a whole lot of comic panel style art out there from Upstream Arcade to help promote the game originally, but little as to how we would go through things. Then, there was a short bit from Good Shepherd Entertainment to keep us going that showed that it could be a mix of that and controlling Hellboy through some various 3D world settings. Now, it looks like we have a better answer with some full gameplay for the game as we wait for it to finally hit the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC. Sometime in the near future is the hope.
While not much more to go on for Hellboy Web Of Wyrd, here we do have a little under a minute of gameplay to look at for the game. It looks like it was captured on the Xbox and shows off how we will be doing just as we assumed. With the titular character moving about the world, loading up on ammo, and taking shots at the various supernatural threats out there. It is listed as a brawler, but the gameplay here does not feel like it is highlighting that all too much. I say that, as we get to see a punch of two from Hellboy here, but it does not flow as a typical brawler game would. I might have had a different idea of what we were going to get, but that does not mean the gameplay does not give us all a better idea. It just feels like it is going to be a slower kind of rogue-lite title more than the other ones that we have known before. Maybe the next big gameplay showing will better define it all.
Hellboy Web Of Wyrd — Gameplay
Check out the trailer for Hellboy Web Of Wyrd to see some of the enemies, gameplay, and the world's comic book style from this upcoming roguelike action brawler game. Hellboy Web Of Wyrd features an original story created in partnership with Dark Horse Comics and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola. In Hellboy Web Of Wyrd, when an agent of the B.P.R.D. goes missing, Hellboy is sent to investigate; pulling him into the depths of the Wyrd. Hellboy Web Of Wyrd is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC.
Hellboy Web Of Wyrd is a rogue-lite action adventure with an original story created in partnership with Dark Horse Comics and creator Mike Mignola.
Featuring monstrous toe-to-toe brawling, you need to chain together hard-hitting melee and ranged attacks to fight a diverse array of increasingly nightmarish enemies.
Like the comics, the game sends Hellboy on a series of vastly different and wholly unique adventures. While those stories stand on their own, they are all tied to the mysterious legacy of The Butterfly House. When an agent of the B.P.R.D. is sent on a reconnaissance mission to the mansion and promptly goes missing. It’s up to you - Hellboy - and your team of Bureau agents to find your missing colleague and uncover the secrets of The Butterfly House.
Welcome to the Butterfly House, a mysterious manor of perverse angles and non-Euclidean geometry built by occultist Pasquale Deneveaux to open a gateway to the Wyrd, a vast, interdimensional web of wondrous and horrifying planes of existence beyond our world. When a B.P.R.D. agent vanishes inside the mansion, it’s up to Hellboy and his team of agents to uncover its forbidden secrets.
Journey into the deepest realms of the Wyrd, each hiding a unique investigation into the unknown. Battle powerful creatures in search of forgotten god forms and magnificent treasures, but beware: ancient evil festers within the Wyrd’s darkest reaches… evil that wants out.
Key Game Features:
- An Authentic Comic Adaptation: Experience gripping storytelling, visuals, and atmosphere that evoke the distinct style of the original comics, crafted in collaboration with series creator Mike Mignola. Every moment looks and feels like it was ripped right from the comics.
- A New Story Inspired By The Hellboy Universe: Unravel a sprawling, spine-tingling original adventure true to the spirit of the comics and brought to life with the illustrious voice of Lance Reddick as Hellboy.
- Become The Legendary Hellboy: Explore the secret depths of the Wyrd, discovering wonders and terrors beyond your imagination. Chain together hard-hitting melee and ranged attacks in challenging combat against a nightmarish menagerie of otherworldly monsters to survive.
Hellboy Web Of Wyrd is in development for PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
Even though it is a little sparse on the full gameplay we would want, I do have to say I like the way that Hellboy Web Of Wyrd is looking. The art style is fun and I do enjoy the comic panels we get when pulling off moves or ending a fight. It is a little odd to have this voice actor doing the voice for Hellboy given how that has been built up for a while now. He does not sound as gruff or hardened here, and that is a little off-putting for me. I am sure I can get used to it just as I have for other IPs, but it is just something worth noting for now. Unless that is a different voice we are hearing here and we have yet to hear the character's final version. There is still a lot of time for that to get built up and all.
Do you have any thoughts on the voice of Hellboy we are hearing here or is it still too soon to tell? How about the gameplay and will the final version be closer to the traditional brawler titles or only feature some of those elements in the mix? How many different supernatural creatures will we see in the game and will they be more than just the usual demons we have seen in the past already? Move on down to the comment section and discuss all of that and more. I know we will have much more for Hellboy Web Of Wyrd to share with you, and all you have to do is stick to the site for those updates. Many more are on the way for this title and the various others are still in the works out there.
