The environments look like the bombed-out, post-apocalyptic ruins of Fallout 4’s version of Boston. Combat meanwhile is slow-paced – the number of enemies seems low – but infused with the same oozing, dripping body horror characterized by Half-Life’s headcrab zombies. It’s not about feeling powerful, it’s about survival. You clutch a revolver and try to contact the outside world – someone, anyone – using your puny shortwave radio. If you told me this was a first-person mod for one of Capcom’s Resident Evil remakes, at first glance, I’d be fooled. Two years since footage was last shared on its official channels, and two years since its creator posted on the formal social media account, the highly mysterious horror FPS game ILL is suddenly back from the dead.
