The Hell is Us gameplay trailer from the September 2024, State of Play can be watched on YouTube here:
Hell is Us featured in its second State of Play in February 2025 and gave us a further glimpse into this strange new world alongside a concrete release date for the title.
Gameplay and setting
The protagonist’s monologue in the initial reveal trailer reveals he has overcome a range of emotions such as fear and anger. She now simply craves “the ecstasy of revenge.” The character can then be seen coldly executing someone we assume has harmed those he loves.
We then see the character using a drone to survey a mass grave of strange humanoid creatures, before venturing toward it with a cool-looking sword. These could be the creatures we’ll be fighting that the devs were referring to.

As the game has been described as an action-adventure, and a sword and gun have been shown in the trailer, we think Hell is Us will feature hack-and-slash and shooting mechanics.
The game will be played in the third person due to the way the camera pans behind the protagonist at the end of the reveal trailer and some gameplay snippets shown off in the release date trailer. So far, Hell is Us has a very Death Stranding meets Dark Souls vibe, so we look forward to seeing more.
