Metal: Hellsinger News

Metal: Hellsinger VR Demo Available now!

Greetings, Hellsingers.

For the past year or so, we've been working hard on bringing you a hellishly hot first
look at Metal: Hellsinger VR. We're happy to announce that you can get your hands
on a playable demo right now.

In this demo, you will have access to:

Two levels and their respective tracks
  • Voke
  • Stygia

Four weapons
  • Terminus
  • Paz
  • Persephone
  • The Hounds

And the new VR Lobby we designed for the game. You can access this lobby to
check out your loadout and pick your poison.



You can also test out some of our accessibility settings, check out the performance
(which is not final), and have fun while slaying to the beat.

If you haven't seen it, we announced this news at the UploadVR Showcase today
with a brand-new trailer featuring Matt Heafy from Trivium and a release date
pointing at FALL 2024. Check it out here:

Metal: Hellsinger VR re-tools the rhythm shooter for headbanging in a headset

Rhythm shooter Metal: Hellsinger has you circle-strafing Quake-style level layouts at high-speed while you shoot demons to the beat. I meet the news that it's getting a VR version this year with some trepidation, therefore. Do I really want to vomit on the beat?
