Today, Team Clout and Mundfish Powerhouse unveiled a brand-new story trailer for their upcoming action survival-horror game ILL during State of Play. The new footage—captured on PlayStation 5® Pro—offers the most extensive look at the project so far, introducing new characters, horrifying monsters, advanced physics interactions, and new gory gameplay moments. In the trailer it was also revealed that ILL is slated for release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2027. Players can wishlist the game right now on Steam, the PlayStation Store, and the Microsoft Store.
Developed by Team Clout in collaboration with Mundfish Powerhouse, ILL is a realistic first-person action survival horror game focused on visceral body horror, cinematic immersion, environmental storytelling, and intense physical gameplay interactions. Shown publicly for the first time since summer 2025, the new trailer marks a major milestone for the project and highlights the evolution of ILL’s world, atmosphere, and gameplay direction. It introduces several key story characters alongside various new Aberration types with disturbing designs and unpredictable behavior, while delivering a deeper look at ILL’s brutal combat, including its advanced dismemberment system and realistic weapon handling. The footage additionally showcases a wider variety of locations and environments, ranging from claustrophobic interiors to larger exterior spaces, further expanding the scale of the game.
Something sinister has awakened inside a massive research fort. As horrific Aberrations spread throughout the complex, the protagonist must fight through grotesque monstrosities and unravel the truth behind the catastrophe in a desperate attempt to save what matters most.
Balancing survival and action mechanics, ILL remains a pure, unforgiving horror experience where every threat is deadly, and resources are critically scarce. To survive, players must master tactical combat assessment—while a diverse arsenal of firearms is available, ammunition is a luxury, forcing them to adapt to different types of Aberrations and rely heavily on improvised melee combat. Players can utilize objects around them to gain the upper hand, hurl bricks to stun enemies, and rip pipes that will degrade with use straight from the walls.
Leveraging Team Clout’s extensive background in the film industry, ILL delivers an unprecedented level of cinematic depth, blending photorealistic visual effects and Hollywood-grade immersion to make everything feel terrifyingly real. The developers’ cinematic contributions can be seen in acclaimed films and series such as Until Dawn, IT: Welcome to Derry, V/H/S/Beyond, Longlegs, Azrael, and various Sony Pictures horror projects.
