Mark your calendars, PS5 gamers, Hell Is Us is arriving on 4 September 2025 in South Africa. Developed by Rogue Factor and published by Nacon, this third‑person action‑adventure throws you into Hadea, a fractured land ravaged by civil war and supernatural calamity. KOODOO is offering both the Standard and Deluxe editions for PS5, priced locally at R949 and R1,199 respectively.

A World Defined by Choice and Instinct

Forget waypoint markers and quest arrows. Hell Is Us leans into environmental storytelling. Traversal is player-led, your mission is pieced together through landscape, dialogue, and subtle world cues. Everyone’s journey through ruins, villages, and war-scarred landscapes will feel distinctly personal.

Combat That Rewards Strategy and Rhythm

Weapon choice matters: swords, spears, axes, each with unique weight and reach. Combat leans heavily on stamina management, you'll weave between parries and dodges, absorbing enemy strikes and conserving strength. A built-in “pulse” mechanic allows mid-fight healing, encouraging careful, aggressive play.

Parrying isn’t a free ticket; it requires stamina reserves, ensuring every clash feels intentional. This blend of melee stamina and draining resilience makes combat both punishing and deeply rewarding.

Exploration Woven with Subtle Storytelling

Hell Is Us offers semi-open zones like farmlands, subterranean bunkers, and ghost-town villages. You’ll navigate with a drone, optional vehicles, and minimal UI, tracking quests through intuition rather than lists. Side deeds, such as returning a farmer’s heirloom, are optional but meaningful, weaving small human moments into your journey.

AI enemies like Hollow Walkers stalk the land—supernatural beings spawned by the calamity. Standard weapons won’t help; you’ll rely on melee tactics and clever positioning to survive.

A Tone of War, Loss, and Humanity

Drawing inspiration from Annihilation and Jeff VanderMeer, Hell Is Us combines grim war zones with surreal otherworldly elements. The game confronts human violence head-on, creating an unsettling yet compelling atmosphere reflecting our own moral complexity.

Editions Available at KOODOO
