ILL Showcases Story and Gameplay in New Trailer, Coming to PC and PS5 in 2027

Team Clout just dropped a new trailer for their upcoming horror game, ILL. The trailer, revealed during the recent State of Play event, showcases gameplay where you’ll be sneaking past scary monsters and strategically choosing when to fight, instead of just hiding. You can watch it below.

In ILL, you play as a man who wakes up after a coma following a huge explosion. He quickly discovers the world has been overrun by terrifying creatures – people who were once like us. With limited weapons and help from other survivors, you’ll need to find a way to escape this nightmare.

The new trailer for the body-horror game ILL revealed more about the game and confirmed it will release on PC and PlayStation 5 in 2027. Players interested in the game can now add it to their wishlist on digital storefronts.

So, I was reading up on ILL, and the creators, Maxim Verehin and Oleg Vdovenko, talked about what influenced the monster designs. Turns out, they drew a lot from classic horror flicks – think stuff from the 70s to the 90s. But it wasn’t just movies! They also got really inspired by games like Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and even Half-Life 2. Definitely explains the creepy vibes!

According to Verehin, games like Half-Life 2, Silent Hill, and the Resident Evil series were key inspirations. These games created worlds that felt both realistic and threatening, with horror stemming not just from what you saw, but from the way the world itself functioned. The team was particularly interested in the feeling of being truly stuck in a believable place, forced to react in the moment with limited supplies. Their goal was to create a game that wasn’t simply frightening, but deeply unsettling and memorable long after the player finished playing.
