Hellraid was a first-person dungeon crawler game announced by Techland a few years ago. Since then it was revealed that the project was put on hold or possibly cancelled. However, the game is still in the minds of the developers at Techland. In an interview with The Daily Telegraph, Techland’s CEO Pawel Marchewka said:
While post-apocalyptic RPG Day of the Mutants is long cancelled, another ‘on-hold’ game is very much in Marchewka’s plans. Dark fantasy Hellraid was announced in 2013 and scheduled for release last year until it was postponed due to Dying Light commitments. With lead character Aiden voiced by Nolan North and a well-received mobile puzzler developed by Shortbreak Games set in the universe, it seems Techland remain invested. “It’s been quite far in some places,” says Marchewka. “We put it on hold because we have bigger plans for this game, but it’s not cancelled!”
Hellraid was one of our most anticipated games last year but it never happened. Hopefully we’ll know more about the project soon. Until then, check out some of the gameplay below.
