Agony takes us to Hell, and hopefully back

I’ve played a few games where we’re either sent to Hell or fight Hellish beasts, but they never look or feel like this.

Agony takes the Survival Horror genre to the most terrifying setting possible: Hell itself. The upcoming FPS  puts us into the body (spirit?) of a lost soul searching to escape the bowels of the world of demons, as the latest trailer above depicts. While in the depths, we have no recollection or memory of what we did to get there — did we commit a horrible crime in the past? Did we die filled with sin? We don’t know that, but we do know that we want to get out.

As we traverse Hell, we’ll come across demons, beasts and terrors that are meant to paralyze us with fear. Featuring gruesome imagery, it looks to mix in just as frightening puzzles as we solve the greatest mystery of man and fear.

It looks morbid, horrific and will probably leave me with nightmares, but I’m looking forward to it based solely on its premise.

Agony from MadMind Studio arrives for PS4, Xbox One and PC in Q2 2017.
