Survival horror game ILL is showing signs of life…or death, as it were…in a new trailer at Summer Game Fest today.
The trailer gives us our first real, meaty look at the body horror gameplay of ILL, including its dismemberment mechanics. The game takes place in a research fort that keeps producing horrible Aberrations. Meanwhile, the player must save the thing that matters most to them, that's trapped deep inside.
Team Clout boasts that ILL will be a "realistic and terrifying experience" with "disturbingly realistic horrors", using gore, physics, and binaural audio to great effect.
ILL first appeared online in 2021 with intriguing concept trailer, but went relatively silent after that except for a few, brief signs of life. This is the first real, robust look we've gotten at the game from developer Team Clout at all, and a welcome sign for those interested in its unsettling vibes.
ILL is Team Clout's debut game, and comes into being thanks to the Mundfish Powerhouse initiative, an investment project from Atomic Heart developer Mundfish.
No release date yet for ILL, though you can wishlist it on Steam for now.
