Ahead of the game’s September 4 launch, Nacon and Rogue Factor announced a free demo of Hell is Us will be available on August 12 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. A Hell is Us demo was previously available on PC (Steam), but it was taken down on June 24.
The Hell is Us demo includes the entire first chapter of the game and offers over an hour and a half of content. It introduces players to the gameplay mechanics, the complete removal of GPS features, and its melee combat action.
The Steam page describes Hell is Us as follows:
Hell is Us is a 3rd-person action-adventure game that combines intense melee combat with the thrill of exploration. Explore a semi-open world to find answers to your questions and face mysterious creatures all along your journey.
A HOSTILE WORLD
As well as the civil war dividing the country, the region is suffering from a mysterious calamity, which has given rise to supernatural creatures that no modern weapon can defeat. Your drone and sword from a different age are your faithful allies as you cut a path through lands infested with terrifying chimeras and try to unravel the mystery of their appearance.
A UNIQUE EXPLORATION SYSTEM
No map, no compass, no quest markers: following your instincts is part of the adventure. Enjoy a unique experience that uses innovative writing and level design to let you make your own decisions and follow your instincts as you explore. Your discoveries are yours alone.
COMBAT AGAINST ORIGINAL CREATURES
Swords, spears and axes: a wide range of weapons forged specially for fighting these supernatural creatures is available. You will need to learn how to fight these monsters and use your drone wisely to stay alive.
