So consider this a clever way to both promote the future standalone release of Techland's Hellraid -- an open-world dark fantasy hack and slash affair, which has been on development hold for a little while now, as well as a means to remain in touch through one of the most supported games from a post-release content perspective of the past few years: Dying Light.

Here's the skinny ahead of the trailer official:

Dying Light, Techland’s open-world action adventure game is getting a new DLC this Summer. Dying Light - Hellraid is based on Techland’s currently-on-hold first-person dark fantasy slasher. The gameplay released today shows the descent into Hell where the players will be able to find all new weapons and slay new enemies.

Dying Light - Hellraid DLC adds another game mode with a progression system, and can be played in both single and co-op. It will be released on July 23 for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 at $9.99. Those who preorder the DLC on Steam today will receive beta access for the weekend (June 26 - June 29).
