As their most ambitious title yet, Rogue Factor is working with some big names to ensure their latest project in development, Hell Is Us, is created properly. To do this, they are working with NACON for publishing and have recruited Jonathan Jacques-Belletête, known for his work on Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, and more recently Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, as their teams Creative Director.

Set out to learn more about the protagonist’s past in a country ravaged by civil war. The almost total self-sufficiency of the country hides a dark secret: the recent appearance of supernatural creatures resembling ancient headstones and monuments in the region. The citizens call this phenomenon "the Calamity". Armed with weapons specially forged to fight these monsters, the protagonist must learn how to defeat them and use his equipment wisely.

This third-person action adventure is aiming to be a new genre, one where players explore environments to find information all by themselves. "Our goal with Hell is Us is to bring back true adventure and exploration. 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,” said Jacques-Belletête regarding the genre and gameplay goal.

Hell Is Us is being developed in Unreal Engine 5 and is planned to release on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S sometime in 2023. Check out the intriguing teaser trailer below and share your thoughts on this project with us in the comment section below.
