The game releases for PC and consoles.
The upcoming 3D adventure Hela is releasing this 2026. The game is planned to be released for the PC and consoles PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and the Nintendo Switch 2.
Hela offers different experiences when it comes to gameplay. They can take on the adventure through single-player, play with friends via two-player local split-screen co-op, and up to four players online. Regardless of what players choose, it allows for shared moments and emergent stories. Overall, the game was designed so that it feels not only complete but also enjoyable regardless of the group size. One of the reasons why it works is due to the Shade System.
Shade System
In Hela, the Shade System is a feature that adapts to how many players are present. For example, there are challenges in the game that have been designed for multiple players. What the system does is to fill in for missing players whenever needed. As such, everyone can experience the full game regardless of group size.
In addition, Shades are copies of the character that continue the action players were performing at the moment they appear. They can hold objects, act as anchor points for ropes, form trampolines to reach higher areas, and even help solve environmental challenges in creative ways. The more they explore, the more story fragments players discover. They can weave their own story by performing acts of kindness and with it feel their impact across the world.
