  • Techland Puts Hellraid on Indefinite Hold

    Techland officially announced today that their fantasy styled game, Hellraid, has been put on hold. Development of the game has come to a stop while the team goes back to the drawing board to meet their own expectations.
    Dear Hellraid fans,

    We would like to officially announce that our dark fantasy FPP game Hellraid will not be released this year as previously planned, and the development of the game has been put on hold.

    In the recent months we conducted an internal analysis and came to the conclusion that Hellraid, in its current shape and form, is not meeting our own expectations for this project. Therefore, we decided the best course of action would be to send it back to the drawing board and invent our dark fantasy title anew.

    In the meantime, we will consolidate our development resources and focus on further expansion of our Dying Light franchise.

    We wish to thank all our fans for your support – you’re the best!

    Over a year ago, Techland announced that the game was delayed. At the same time, they also revealed that Hellraid would not be on the old generation of consoles. With this current move, there is no ETA on when, or even if, Hellraid will be released.

      Well it's a pitty because the game was looking interesting (Combat and visually wise). Besides that it seemed pretty empty in actual meaning? They did a wonderful job with Dying light, specially when in comparison to the dead Island games.
      Looking at the gameplay from this one it just seemed like they where going back again into the same mistakes of the Dead Island series.
      Probably after the success of Dying Light they decided that it's better to take a step back and rethink some of the stuff in this game, how can they improve it and to take longer time to develop and make it better, which is great!

      This game never did look too outstanding, hopefully they can achieve what is needed and show us something special next year.
