Hell is Us is a curious creation. Sitting down with minimal idea of what to expect, my immediate impressions are of a moody, atmospheric blend of horror and survival game not unlike the early approach to Resident Evil 4’s village. Yet just a short while later I’m darting through dungeons, wielding twin axes in full soulslike fashion against writhing, jerky sci-fi abominations that wouldn’t feel out of place in Death Stranding, or even Silent Hill. As my hands-on preview session at Gamescom 2024 comes to a close, I’m still not quite sure what to make of it, but I definitely want to see more.
