The higher your multiplier is, the more damage you do and the more points you earn. The more in sync you are with the tune of the music, the higher your fury multiplier is. Your in-game reticle acts as a metronome and everything you do, from shooting and reloading to dodging and dashing, must match the beat of the song. Music and shooting are the main driving elements of Metal Hellsinger, given it’s a rhythm based shooter. It’s a minimalistic plot that tells a competent story, but it’s clear that the narrative takes a backseat compared to the actual gameplay. You make your way through eight levels of Hell, facing different aspects of a greater being called The Red Judge. Paz acts as both a weapon, albeit a weak one, and a companion, being the only one with a voice to tell The Unknown’s story. The game is narrated by industry veteran Troy Baker, who plays a magical skull named Paz. You play as a humanoid entity known as The Unknown, who has been banished to the depths of Hell and must fight her way out to reclaim her voice, which she lost along the way. This game is a no-brainer if you’re into heavy metal music and fast paced shooting, but may come off as daunting for those new to the genre due to repetitive gameplay and a difficult learning curve. The result is the monstrosity Metal Hellsinger, the newest rhythm-based shooter from Stockholm developers The Outsiders. Hear me out: take what you love about music games such as Guitar Hero or Rock Band and combine it with the visceral demon killing of Doom. Without a doubt, Doom is one of the most – if not the most – influential first person shooters of all time, as a multitude of games have tried to follow in its footsteps.
