Broken Mirror Games, Skybound Entertainment, and developer Rock Square Thunder have released the first gameplay trailer for their isometric survival horror I Hate This Place. This new trailer (see below) shows some of the twisted monsters that players will encounter in the warped world they find themselves in.
I Hate This Place takes players to a warped wilderness, where unfathomable creatures and an unforgiving environment will challenge players’ survival skills. In a bold comic book art style, players will explore their world, scavenge for resources, and craft a variety of weapons. By day, players will gather supplies, craft equipment, and fortify their shelter ready for nightfall, when all hell breaks loose.
Inspired by Skybound’s Eisner Award-nominated comic book series created by writer Kyle Starks and artist Artyom Topilin, I Hate This Place puts players in the shoes of Elena, who finds herself hunted in a hostile world after she unittingly summons a malevolent force. Elena needs to scour every corner of Rutherford Ranch, including haunted forests, a derelict town, and infested bunkers, to gather vital resources.
The game features:
- A dynamic day-night cycle that changes the world. By day gather supplies and reinforce a shelter, but by night prepare for a tough fight against stronger and more aggressive enemies.
- Use stealth as well as combat. Many creatures will hunt Elena by sound, so use that to your advantage and lure them into traps.
- A retro comic book style filled with colour and a heavy dose of 1980’s flair.
I Hate This Place will launch on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch later this year.
