A muscular and aesthetically sublime adaptation on PC and consoles
The Wyrd’s most demon is back in action! Today, Upstream Arcade delivers its chiseled vision of the Hellboy comic book with a visually striking adaptation: Hellboy Web of Wyrd, published by Good Shepherd Entertainment in partnership with Dark Horse Comics, is available on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S for €24.50.
Check out the launch trailer:
In Hellboy Web of Wyrd, play as the Right Arm of Destruction himself (voiced by Lance Reddick) on a dizzying adventure into the heart of the strange kingdom of Wyrd. Psychic spikes are recorded around the world, while an agent from the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.) goes missing while investigating the mysterious Butterfly House. That’s all it takes to dispatch the agency’s best supernatural hunter, as efficient as he is cheeky: Hellboy.
Hellboy Web of Wyrd’s visual style, true to the comic book created by Mike Mignola, envelops players in the veil of mystery of the Wyrd, a metaphysical dimension that defines its own rules. The search for his missing colleague will lead the Red Monkey to confront the gigantic ferocious beasts that inhabit this other world, with the help of devastating short-range combos, ranged attacks, and numerous upgrades. Hellboy will have all the power it needs to take down Hell’s most fearsome fighters and foil this vast mystical plot in the best video game adaptation ever created for the son of a demon.
Hellboy Web of Wyrd offers an original storyline, imagined in collaboration with Dark Horse Comics. Immerse yourself in the psychic twists and turns of the Wyrd by following Good Shepherd Entertainment on @GoodShepherdEnt and www.goodshepherd.games.
