Rumors have been swirling about a PlayStation State of Play event in February 2025, which promises to shed light on what Sony has in store for gamers this year. The hype is intense, with fans eagerly anticipating news on games like “Death Stranding 2: On the Beach” and “Ghost of Yotei,” still awaiting their release dates. A leaked release date hints that an announcement could be just around the corner, adding fuel to the speculation about this much-awaited event.
Let’s talk about “Hell Is Us.” This game’s release date might have slipped out ahead of schedule, suggesting we could see it mentioned at the upcoming State of Play. Recently, PlayStation Game Size dropped a hint on X, sharing what looks to be the cover art for the Deluxe Edition of “Hell Is Us.” If you don’t remember, this action-adventure game, which takes cues from the soulslike genre, was first revealed during last September’s State of Play. Set in a post-apocalyptic future, fans are already buzzing about it. According to the leak, it’s supposed to drop on September 4, but those who spring for the $80 Deluxe Edition can dive in three days early, starting September 1.
There’s also talk from another X user who spotted “Hell Is Us” on the Xbox Store. This supports PlayStation Game Size’s claim that the listing made an early appearance, with the PS Store expected to update once the game gets officially unveiled during the rumored State of Play.
Although the Xbox Store lists both the Standard and Deluxe Editions of “Hell Is Us,” there’s no word yet on the actual release date or pricing details. However, the Deluxe Edition offers a tempting array of bonuses: 72 hours of early access, DLC skins, an exclusive investigation, plus The Art Pack that includes a digital artbook and soundtrack. As of now, the Deluxe Edition isn’t visible on the PS Store, but a basic listing is present.
While all this sounds exciting, remember to take this info with a grain of caution. We’ve seen release dates from supposedly credible sources turn out to be just hot air before. Until an official announcement is made, we can’t be sure “Hell Is Us” will hit shelves in September. Let’s wait and see!
