Ghostrunner has some new DLCs and it’s a prequel

Ghostrunners The latest DLC offering, Project_Hel, is now available.

Taking place before the events of the main game and designed for novices and Ghostrunner veterans alike, the campaign stars Hel, a battle android quelling a rebellion at the foot of the Tower City.

Hel’s true motivation is her hatred of the creators who kept her tied up between quests, but internal programming keeps her from killing them outright, so she follows orders while looking for loopholes to disrupt her creators’ plans.

With no biological parts, Hel was created with a cobbled together AI that left her unstable, impulsive, and angry. These traits manifest in Project_Hel’s new Rage Bar, which you fill by killing enemies to gain abilities. Using Hel’s unique moveset, you’ll fight four new enemy types and two bosses across seven levels. She can use an attack-denying shield, bypass enemy defenses with unblockable blows, and strike from afar with surges of energy.

Instead of using a grappling hook like the original protagonist, Hel uses her Super Leap ability for both traversal and combat. She can also sprint into the air and use a Sensory Boost to quickly visualize the trajectory. Thanks to an overhauled progression system, you can further improve their skills.

Project_Hel is available now on Amazon Luna, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store and GOG. The Nintendo Switch version will appear in the near future.

The DLC costs $14.99/€14.99/£12.49.

Throughout March, the million-selling Ghostrunner will be free on PlayStation 5 for PlayStation Plus members.
