Developer Rogue Factor has released update 1.013 (v1.8) for Hell is Us, expanding the bestiary of the Hadea region with 10 new varieties of Hollow Walkers and resolving a high-priority memory corruption issue within the save system. Released on October 8, 2026, for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, the patch serves to both diversify combat encounters and stabilize progress for players exploring the game’s markerless world.
Hadea Region Bestiary Expansion
The primary content addition in version 1.013 is the introduction of 10 new Hollow Walkers within the Hadea region. As a central zone for exploration, Hadea now features a wider array of supernatural threats that players must identify and overcome using the game’s organic discovery mechanics. This expansion increases the variety of enemy patterns encountered during the mid-to-late game stages.
Save System and Collision Fixes
Beyond new content, the update addresses a critical technical flaw where memory corruption could interfere with the save system. This fix prevents potential data loss for active campaigns. Additionally, the developers have corrected multiple collision issues across the game’s geometry. These fixes are particularly significant for Hell is Us because the title relies on a design philosophy of player-led exploration without traditional quest logs or map markers. Ensuring players do not become physically trapped in the environment is vital for maintaining the flow of navigation in a world where the path forward is rarely explicitly stated.
Stability and Versioning
While the 1.8 update (1.013) contains the bulk of the changes and new enemies, a minor follow-up hotfix, version 1.014, was also deployed. This secondary update was issued to resolve specific stability issues and crashes reported by players immediately following the release of 1.013.
According to the official patch notes, players on all platforms should ensure they are running the latest version to avoid the save corruption bug. These technical refinements support the broader goal of Rogue Factor and publisher Nacon to provide a smoother experience as the player base continues to grow.
Key Changes in Update 1.013 (v1.8)

- Save System: Resolved a memory corruption bug that threatened save file integrity.
