Next year, a new story-driven DLC is coming to first-person cyberpunk action-platformer, Ghostrunner, and it\u2019s called Project_Hel.\u00a0<\/p>\n

IGN<\/a><\/em> revealed the news yesterday after developer 505 Games teased the \u201cUltimate DLC\u201d last week. It turns out that \u201cUltimate DLC\u201d was Project_Hel, the upcoming story-driven DLC where players will control Hel, one of the bosses from the game. Project_Hel will go live in January, but before that, some players will have the chance to go hands-on with it during a private beta held sometime before the DLC\u2019s launch.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hel will be a \u201ccombat-oriented character designed to appeal to \u2018new players and veterans,\u2019 and will feature her own ability progression system,\u201d according to IGN<\/em>. The story of Project_Hel will take place over six new missions that task Hel with descending from Dharma Tower, a locale heavily featured in the base game. Alongside new missions, Project_Hel will include new enemies, new bosses, and six new songs from Daniel Deluxe.\u00a0<\/p>\n

505 Games told IGN<\/em> that it was initially planned as a smaller DLC before becoming a \u201cfull-blown Ghostrunner experience.\u201d The studio also revealed that a new Holiday Pack would hit the game on December 7, and it\u2019s a free cosmetics pack that includes holiday swords with matching gloves and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While waiting for Project_Hel to launch in January, read about how native PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\/S versions of Ghostrunner launched back in September<\/a>. Then,\u00a0check out this flashy neon pack that launched back in August alongside new assist options and a roguelike wave mode<\/a>. Read about how 505 Games has already confirmed Ghostrunner 2 for PS5, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC<\/a> after that.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
