Hell is Us is being developed for Windows PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, with a release set for sometime in 2023.

Former Eidos Montreal art director Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, whose work can be seen in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, is the creative director on Hell is Us.

Here’s a rundown on the game:

Hell is Us

If war is the closest we get to hell on earth, it’s because Earth harbours the worst of demons: humankind. In an isolated country ravaged by infighting, discover the secrets of your past and deal with the repercussions of a mysterious calamity.

Hell is Us is a 3rd-person action-adventure game that combines intense melee combat with the thrill of exploration. Explore a semi-open world to find answers to your questions and face mysterious creatures all along your journey.
