Game developers Broken Mirror Games, in collaboration with publisher Skybound Games, have unveiled a gameplay trailer for their open-world survival horror title, titled “I Hate This Place“.

Here is an overview of the game, via Skybound Games:

About

The work “I Hate This Place” finds its roots in the critically acclaimed comic book series from Skybound, a creation jointly penned by writer Kyle Starks and artist Artyom Topilin, which has earned an Eisner Award nomination.

In this game, players assume the character of Elena, who finds herself embroiled in a life-or-death struggle after she and her companion accidentally summon a menacing entity. Overpowered and persistently pursued in a treacherous environment, players must remain alert, scavenge their surroundings, and choose their engagements tactically against formidable adversaries, many of which can track you by sound.

Key Features

  • Classic Craft-Based Survival Horror – Scavenge every corner of Rutherford Ranch to stay alive. From haunted forests, a derelict town, to infested bunkers. Explore a world teeming with danger as you gather vital resources, craft essential gear, upgrade your campsite, and rebuild outposts to have somewhere to hide.
  • Day Prepares You. Night Hunts You – A dynamic day-night cycle that changes the world. Use daylight wisely to explore, scavenge supplies, craft what you need, and prepare for what’s coming. When night falls, the real nightmares come out to play. More enemies appear, stronger and more aggressive than before. The landscape becomes harder to navigate with just your flashlight. Sometimes your best hope is to find shelter and hunker down till morning.
  • Deadly Silence Goes A Long Way – Stealth and combat go hand-in-hand here as many of the twisted creatures in Rutherford Ranch hunt and stalk you by sound alone. Brute force will often just land you in an early grave. Use sound to your advantage, luring creatures away from your path or cleverly leading them straight into deadly traps you laid.
  • 80s Vibes Meets Comic Book Flair – Inspired by the award-nominated comic book series, I Hate This Place comes to life with bold colors, a punchy retro comic book style, and a heavy dose of ’80s flair. A unique blend of horror, dark humor, and just the right touch of camp and gore where unsettling dread meets stylized charm.

The game titled “I Hate This Place” will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and both Steam and Epic Games Store for PC in the fourth quarter of 2025.
