The comic book series, I Hate This Place, is being turned into an open-world survival horror title that uses an isometric viewpoint. It's in development from Broken Mirror Games in partnership with Skybound Entertainment. It's also part of the new horror label created under Bloober Team. I Hate This Place is aiming for a Q4 2025 release on PC via Steam and Epic, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
I Hate This Place was revealed during this past week's Future Games Show event. The game takes players into a supernatural world where the "rules of reality come undone."
The visual aesthetic aims to mimic the look of comic books from the 1980s. The game is inspired by the "Skybound's Eisner award-nominated" comic series of the same name that was created by writer Kyle Starks and artist Artyom Topilin, so they have plenty of inspiration to pull from for the game.
I Hate This Place is an isometric open world survival horror set in an eerie, unpredictable world that's twisted beyond comprehension. Playing as Elena, you awaken forces that threaten to shatter everything you knew about reality.
A Surreal Nightmare
Inspired by the award-winning comic book series created by Kyle Starks and Artyom Topilin, I Hate This Place plunges you deep into a supernatural world where the rules of reality come undone.
The playful meets the petrifying in this strange corner of the universe - everything here wants you dead.
Whatever you do, avoid the Horned Man at all costs.
Survival Horror with Day & Night Cycles
Safety is a rare commodity in I Hate This Place. Wild animals, mutated spiders, crazy cultists and deranged outlaws — they’re all just dying to meet you.
Combat rewards ingenuity over brute force. Often outmatched, you'll need to manipulate your surroundings to even the odds against formidable foes.
Preparation is the name of the game. Resources are scarce, enemies dangerous and unpredictable. You’ll need to craft tools that can help you survive the wilderness long enough to reach ranch house before nightfall.
Because when the night rolls around - hell breaks loose.
