One of Shortbreak Studios’ goals is to develop a mobile game unlike any other on the App Store, a game that will elevate immersive gameplay and stunning graphics to levels previously reserved for PC and console titles. With Hellraid: The Escape, it was only possible thanks to the Unreal Engine 3 technology and the team’s determination in optimizing the final product.
Stephen Mitchell from Grab It Magazine writes:
"Seeing what has been achieved in Hellraid: The Escape makes me all the more sadder that we may never see more of this twisted universe given that Techland has shelved plans for the console experience for which this mobile title was supposed to act as an entrée. But something is better than nothing, and thankfully, Hellraid: The Escape manages to be more than just an entrée."
Grab It Magazine reports on the indefinite cancellation of Hellraid from developer Techland but praises the mobile spin-off title Hellraid: The Escape, which can be picked up on iOS and Android.
Bummer, it looked like a promising title. Maybe it'll still see the light of day in the future.
Dang. I was quite looking forward to this. As a big fan of Dead Island and very impressed with the evolution of the FPP they exhibited in Dying Light, I had been keenly interested in how the addition of magic might alter the formula. Hopefully they're able to salvage some of the work they put into it, presuming it doesn't eventually get revived.
