Techland’s Hellraid Development Put On Hold

Techland’s first-person co-op slasher, Hellraid development has been put on hold and sent back to thedrawing board.

Developers announcement:

“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!”

Hellraid was originally planned for 2013 release for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, it was delayed to 2014.

In May 2014, it was delayed again to rebuild the game on Techland’s latest version of their Chrome Engine 6 & re-announced for PS4, Xbox one & PC.
