Hell Is Us is an Emotionally Haunted Action-RPG
In this hands-on preview, Adrian Ruiz breaks down why Hell is Us might be one of the boldest and most emotionally charged games of 2025. Developed by Rogue Factor, the game throws out modern handholding in favor of player plattering: a design philosophy that demands attention, intuition, and trust in the world around you.
Set in the hermit nation of Hadea, where a brutal civil war and supernatural forces collide, Hell is Us challenges players to explore without guidance, fight enemies born from raw emotion, and uncover a narrative that pulls no punches.
