Gameplay and setting

The protagonist’s monologue in the trailer reveals she 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 she 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.

We also believe the game will play in the third person due to the way the camera pans behind the protagonist at the end of the trailer. So far, Hell is Us has a very Death Stranding meets Dark Souls vibe, so we look forward to seeing more.
