Ghostrunner: Project_Hel

Project_Hel is an add-on to the action game Ghostrunner, released in 2020. The add-on was developed by the authors of the original, the Polish studio One More Level. Interestingly, it was originally created as a much smaller DLC, but eventually grew to the size of a large expansion.

Plot

In Ghostrunner: Project_Hel we play as the title Hel, who in the basic version of the game acted as a boss. The protagonist has to complete a bloody mission in the Dharma Tower, which is well-known to fans of the original game.

Game mechanics

Similarly to the original, in Ghostrunner: Project_Hel the action was shown from a first-person perspective (FPP). The gameplay basically does not differ too much from what we are used to from Ghostrunner, so we dash through locations and eliminate enemies with a katana, performing lightning-fast dodges and impressive stunts. The expansion introduces a handful of new features, the biggest of which is the ability to survive one attack; only after the second attack Hel will be killed. In the expansion six new levels are waiting for completion. In addition, new bosses stand in our way, and previously unavailable skills are waiting to be gained.

Technical aspects

Ghostrunner: Project_Hel does not introduce changes in the graphical layer. However, we will hear six new tracks in the add-on, which were composed by Daniel Deluxe.
