Developer The Outsiders – the studio co-founded by former Battlefield 3 lead designer and Payday 2 director David Goldfarb – has unveiled Metal: Hellsinger, a rhythm FPS that’s coming to PC, Xbox One, PS4, and next-gen consoles next year.
Metal: Hellsinger will be The Outsiders’ first release since the studio was founded in 2015 – its previous project, four-years-in-the-making stealth-action experience Darkborn, was shelved after being dropped by publisher Private Division – and promises to deliver frenzied bouts of gun-based demon-slaying, all synced up to a metal soundtrack.
Each level will feature its own track (with the likes of Trivium’s Matt Heafy and Arch Enemy’s Alissa White-Gluz contributing), and as a player’s shot accuracy increases, so too will their power and the complexity of the music – which start as atmospheric background ambience and gains new layers until it builds to big metal anthems – giving dual incentive to stay on the beat.
