I Hate This Place goes from Comic Page to Console

Inspired by the award-winning comic book series created by Kyle Starks and Artyom TopilinI Hate This Place plunges you deep into a supernatural world where the rules of reality come undone. I Hate this Place is coming from Broken Mirror Games for Xbox, Switch, PS5, and PC.

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.

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.

I Hate This Place features bold, vivid colors and unsettling environments, all wrapped up in a gloriously retro ’80s aesthetic with just a hint of camp to lighten the mood.

Each location is lovingly crafted to tell its own disturbing story through stylish visuals that blur the line between reality and nightmare.

They say dead men tell no tales. But in this accursed land, every specter has a story, waiting to be unearthed.

Solve individual hauntings and you’ll start to glimpse the horrifying reality lurking at the heart of I Hate This Place.

But tread carefully – some secrets are buried for good reason.
