Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a campaign with distinct missions may hit a wall when the experience settles into perpetual arena fighting.
- Those wanting broad exploration or a changing setting may find the empty world and repeating bot conflict narrow in scope.
- Players looking for multiplayer matches with human opponents may not find the bot-focused arena suited to that preference.
Our take on hate.net
Players who need mission progression may bounce off when the arena loop becomes the main activity: high-score chasing escalates enemy targeting, but the fighting remains perpetual. Those uninterested in observing bots may also stop after exploring the empty lobby and world.
What is hate.net?
A minimal first-person shooter set in an abandoned arena dominated by bots.
The movement system includes sliding, jumping and double-jumping, with the double-jump allowing players to redirect their velocity. Combat uses a sword and gun, with hidden interactions tied to these mechanics. Chasing high scores causes enemies to target the player, escalating the fighting into chaos. Players can also sit back and watch the bots continue their cycle of combat and conversation. The lobby provides an empty world to walk through and explore. The game presents this setting as a brief visit to a place where battles began before the player arrived and will continue afterward.
