She also gets her shield which will protect her from one-hit fatalities like Jack. Hel’s jump and dash are longer than Jack’s, so she should be able to compensate with her lack of grappling hook.

Of course, Ghostrunner’s DLC seems to keep most of the gameplay from the original. It looks like the DLC will include most of the first-person platforming. We can also expect some boss fights.
