14 DAY TRIAL // Marcin Kruczkiewicz, a producer working at Techland, says that the main sources of inspiration for their upcoming Hellraid are classic titles like Diablo, in its first version, Heretic and Hexen.
The developer tells VG247 that, “Those are the games that have shaped many of our team members as gamers and we’d like to recreate that unique experience and fun that they gave us but in a modern form that uses – for example – online co-op which was unavailable in those times.”
Hellraid was first a game mode for Dead Island, but its scope has expanded enough to become a standalone experience.
Three players in cooperative mode will be able to work together to stop the armies of Hell, using both traditional weapons and magic.
The game will also have single player and an Internet-based Game Master mode.
