00:00What happened here?

00:03Madness and hatred and lots of it.

00:07Hi everyone, my name is Jonathan Jacques Belletet

00:10and I am the Executive Creative Director

00:12and the Executive Art Director on Hell Is Us

00:14here at Rogue Factor.

00:15So the game that we've been developing

00:17for pretty much almost five years now

00:19is a game called Hell Is Us.

00:21So the game is definitely like an action-adventure game.

00:23It is set in the world of Adia.

00:25It's a rogue state

00:27where there's a lot of really weird things happening.

00:30You play Remy.

00:31He was born there.

00:33He was raised in a foster system in Canada

00:36and he's going back basically to find answers.

00:40This thing that games do now, contemporary games,

00:42where the adventuring is just, if you think about it,

00:45the exploration and the discovery,

00:48they're only there by theme.

00:50You had just been following marker after marker

00:52and until the last marker is over

00:54your actual thing you needed to find.

00:56Almost all the variables connected to the exploration

00:59and connected to your discovery

01:00are given to you in a silver platter.

01:02So we look at it kind of like the inverse in our game

01:04because we got rid of all these things.

01:06I remember chatting with John about the old Zelda games,

01:10how it was straightforward

01:12and like you had just enough to know where to go

01:15but not too much.

01:16It's basically how life works if you think about it, right?

01:18We basically orient ourselves by sight and hearing

01:21and what people tell us, right?

01:23Once in the woods, follow the wind chimes.

01:33They will lead the way through.

01:36You talk to NPCs and they're literally going to tell you a clue, right?

01:39So Rebecca and Jova, when she kind of hints you where the Owen convoy,

01:44the direction that it took, she says,

01:46she says, I know, I don't know where they went exactly

01:49but I know they took the road that goes behind the weird monuments

01:52and she says, you can see them from here.

01:54And as you're talking to her, behind her, quite far,

01:56you see some peculiar monument-looking thingy.

01:59Like, is that what she's talking about?

02:01Like, if I go and then you go there and you see the road that turns

02:03and it's maybe the convoy did come here.

02:06I think that's kind of very unique and it works really, really well.

02:09Like any game, especially a game of almost 40 hours,

02:12sometimes it works better than others.

02:14You know, no game is absolutely perfect but it's very much,

02:18it's the joy of exploration, the joy of discovery.

02:21Yeah.

02:22The abbey is closed.

02:24Official AAF business.

02:26Of course, we can't talk about Hell is Us without talking about our monsters

02:30and the enemies, the limbic entities, are physical manifestations of human emotions,

02:36of human negative emotions.

02:38What does an emotion look like?

02:40Who knows?

02:41So, we had many iterations.

02:43We ended up with these kind of like fractally, geometrically thingies, you know,

02:47so we have grief, ecstasy, terror and rage.

02:49So the Hollow Walker represents a bit, so it's just a husk.

02:51This is what we call the Hollow Walker.

02:53And it's a bit like a facsimile of a human being who's felt

02:56this very strong negative emotion.

02:58And then they look like that because we tried a lot of things

03:01and they ended up looking like this, you know.

03:06So you'll be able to play Hell is Us on September 4th, 2025,

03:10on Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 5 and obviously PC.
