Press release:
Oslo, Norway – December 7, 2023.
The Outsiders and Funcom are thrilled to unleash Metal: Hellsinger’s new Purgatory DLC and free Horde Mode Update upon the world, giving fans of the multi-award winning, critically acclaimed rhythm shooter both more of what they love and a new way to play. Put the pedal to the heavy metal in today’s trailer:

The music, outfits, and new weapon in the Purgatory DLC are designed to be enjoyed in any game mode and at any level of progression. Make your guns roar to three face-melting tracks concocted by composers Two Feathers and performed by two powerful new voices – Melissa Bonny (Ad Infinitum) and Joe Bad (Fit for an Autopsy) – as well as the returning Matt Heafy (Trivium).

Slay in every sense of the word with three darkly scintillating outfits and a new weapon, the Telos bow. Deal massive headshot damage and collect fired arrows to make each beat count.

Galloping straight into Hell alongside the DLC is the free Horde Mode Update, in which players will take on increasingly challenging waves of demons in brand-new arenas. Choose between powerful upgrades after each wave and build yourself into a demon to be feared. Spend Void Echoes collected during each run to unlock permanent upgrades.

The new Horde Mode expands and diversifies Metal: Hellsinger by adding a sprinkle of roguelite to the thrilling gameplay flow, each run taking the player on a blazing ride from regular demon to rampaging, headbanging instrument of destruction. Completing the new mode brings a prize: a new skin that lets you spread your wings and glide through the air.

Both the Horde Mode Update and the Purgatory DLC are available right now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox X|S, with the DLC priced at $5,99 / €5,99.
