Hellboy: Web of Wyrd Looks Like a Comic Book Fan's Dream for PS5, PS4 | Push Square
Hellboy: Web of Wyrd tells an original story written by Hellboy creator Mike Mignola in the format of a roguelike action-adventure brawler. We got a new trailer (that forgot to tell you this one is coming to PlayStation platforms) in which we see Hellboy solving problems the best way he knows how, and is ably voiced by the late-great Lance Reddick himself.
The art style is going to immediately appeal to fans of Mignola's work, and while we'd like to see some uncut gameplay to better understand how it all works, it seems pretty cool. Apparently, the story here ties together several independent tales from the Hellboy universe into a single unified experience, which sounds like a draw in its own right.

I’m excited for this one! Hoping the combat/gameplay systems are interesting enough to keep you invested (gameplay has seemed veeery simplistic from what we’ve seen). Otherwise the art style looks great, and it’ll be excellent to hear Reddick’s voice again!
I can't wait for this one. Huge Mignola fan here. Looking forward to diving back into comics in general, as I've been collecting rather than reading them.
Art style makes it a day one purchase. Been wanting a fluid comic book style game, this nails it.
Looks ok. Need
