Hell Is Us was developed by Rogue Factor, the studio behind Mordheim: City of the Damned. The project was led by Jonathan Jacques-Belletete, the art director for Deus Ex: Human Revolution and its sequel, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. According to Jacques-Belletête, the game was inspired by the 2018 film Annihilation, and the Southern Reach Trilogy by Jeff Van der Meer. The game adopted a minimalistic head-up display as the studio was influenced by games released in the 1990s and wanted to create an immersive experience in which players receive information in an "organic" way. Jacques-Belletete compared the combat system to those commonly found in hack and slash games, one that is neither overly easy nor hard. Hell Is Us was announced by publisher Nacon in April 2022, and was originally scheduled to be released in 2023. The game resurfaced in September 2024 during PlayStation's State of Play livestream event, and has been released on September 4, 2025
