Hell Clock was released on 22 Jul, 2025.
Hell Clock includes depictions of intense violence and historical themes that reflect the brutal setting of the War of Canudos in Brazil, 1896. Players take on the role of a character immersed in challenging battles and face enemies in a dark, atmospheric environment that may contain scenes of explicit combat and references to social injustices of the time. While the game explores themes of resilience and justice, it portrays violence in a way that aligns with the historical and narrative context. There are no depictions of sexual abuse, drug or alcohol use, or other explicit sensitive topics.
