==Reception==
Commercially, the game was not successful. Having spent four years in development, the graphics and game play were dated, and at the time of its release, Hellboy was still a mostly unknown independent comic book series, especially outside the United States. The PC version had numerous bugs, and the PlayStation version was graphically inferior to most others at the time (especially due to the very late 2003 release date for the PlayStation port, with sixth-gen systems released long before).

Both Cryo Studios and Cryo Interactive went out of business shortly after ''Hellboy'''s PC release.
