That’s well metal

Singers from melodic death metal bands including Arch Enemy, Soilwork, and Dark Tranquillity come together to shout inMetal: Hellsinger, a new FPS about blasting demons in time to the music. Sounds a bit like Crypt Of The Necrodancer but way more \m/etal, as I believe the kids said in 2002. See some of the shouty violence in the announcement trailer.

There you are, trying to shoot through the demon hordes of hell, doing violence along with the soundtrack. “The more in sync you are with the rhythm, the more intense the music will become and the more destruction you will cause,” the blurb explains. Along with a story campaign, it’ll have leaderboards and a challenge mode. The action in this trailer doesn’t look to have much oomph, though they say this is pre-alpha so there’s a long way to go and plenty of time for polish.

Growlers lined up include Matt Heafy of Trivium, Mikael Stanne of Dark Tranquillity, Björn Strid of Soilwork, and Alissa White-Gluz Arch Enemy. It’s like my teenage years all over again.
