Hell and Back: Labirent Entertainment’s Descent into Darkness

The flames of the underworld are burning once more. Hell and Back from Labirent Entertainment is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing dark fantasy titles on the horizon. Announced for release in early 2026, the game promises an intense mix of action, atmosphere, and mythic storytelling set deep within the many layers of hell.
You play as a fallen warrior cast into the infernal depths for reasons unknown. The goal is simple yet impossible: fight your way through the circles of torment and return to the light above. Each layer of hell presents a new theme, new monsters, and new rules of survival. What begins as a descent soon turns into a desperate climb toward redemption.
Hell and Back embraces old school action RPG combat with a modern touch. Players can wield swords, cast spells, and combine both for devastating results. Every strike feels heavy, every encounter carries risk, and resources are scarce. Defeated enemies drop loot that changes your abilities and appearance, pushing you to experiment with new builds as you descend further.
The game’s pacing evokes the atmosphere of classic dungeon crawlers. Narrow hallways give way to vast caverns, filled with eerie light and ambient whispers. The enemy designs draw from ancient myths, religion, and nightmares, blending beauty and horror in equal measure.
The vision of hell here is unlike the usual fire and brimstone. It is cold, surreal, and unsettlingly quiet. Architecture is built from bone and steel, rivers run with ash, and the air feels heavy. Every region has its own ecosystem, its own hierarchy of demons, and its own challenges. The deeper you go, the more the world bends around your sanity.
Labirent Entertainment’s approach focuses on immersion and tension rather than endless chaos. You are meant to feel small, vulnerable, and out of place. The story unfolds through relics, voices, and visions rather than cutscenes, letting exploration tell the tale. It feels personal, almost like a spiritual test rather than a simple mission.
While Hell and Back is still in development, it already shows promise as a haunting, deliberate take on the dark fantasy genre. The combination of heavy combat, rich world design, and psychological storytelling could make it a standout among modern RPGs. For those who enjoy journeys through darkness and redemption, this is one to watch.
Hell awaits, and the only way out is through it.
