Hell Is Us is a 3rd-person action-adventure game that combines intense melee combat with the thrill of exploration.

If war is the closest we get to hell on earth, it's because Earth harbors the worst of demons: humankind. In an isolated country ravaged by civil war, uncover the secrets of your past and confront the mysterious disaster that has struck the region. Embark on a true adventure that explores the dark side of human nature.

Explore a semi-open world to find answers to your questions and face mysterious creatures all along your journey.

As well as the civil war dividing the country, the region is suffering from a mysterious calamity, which has given rise to supernatural creatures that no modern weapon can defeat. Your drone and sword from a different age are your faithful allies as you cut a path through lands infested with terrifying chimeras and try to unravel the mystery of their appearance.

 

No map, no compass, no quest markers: following your instincts is part of the adventure. Enjoy a unique experience that uses innovative writing and level design to let you make your own decisions and follow your instincts as you explore. Your discoveries are yours alone.

Swords, spears and axes: a wide range of weapons forged specially for fighting these supernatural creatures is available. You will need to learn how to fight these monsters and use your drone wisely to stay alive.

The creative director on the project is Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, renown for his work on Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and more recently Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy before joining the team. Having been in development for several years, Hell is Us is the studio's most ambitious project to date.

"Our goal with Hell is Us is to bring back true adventure and exploration," said Rogue Factor Creative Director Jonathan Jacques-Belletête. "There's no need for a detailed quest log or precise waypoint on the map: we want players to feel the thrill of adventure, guided by their feelings and instincts. The central theme of Hell is Us is that human violence is a perpetual cycle fueled by human emotions and passions."

"We are delighted to be able to finally announce this game," said Alain Falc, CEO of NACON. "As a publisher, we always want to offer games with original ideas that will appeal to as many people as possible. The first game from Rogue Factor since we acquired it is also one of our most ambitious projects, and we can't wait to reveal more about it in the coming months."

Hell Is Us is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC in 2023.
