Hell is Us is a third-person action-adventure that blends intense melee combat with the thrill of exploration. Set in a region torn by civil war and plagued by a mysterious calamity, the game places you in a semi-open world populated by supernatural creatures that no modern weapon can defeat. Armed with an ancient sword and a loyal drone, you must cut a path through lands infested with terrifying chimeras and uncover the truth behind their appearance.

Players can choose from three distinct gangs: Escher, Goliath, and Orlock, each with unique characteristics and abilities. The game emphasizes customization and strategy, as players can specialize each gang member and exploit the hazardous environments to gain tactical advantages. Whether it's climbing elevated walkways, setting traps, or ambushing enemies, the game offers a variety of ways to outsmart opponents.
