The Visceral Reality of War Comes to Xbox Series X|S with Hell Let Loose on October 5

We're extremely excited to celebrate the upcoming arrival of Hell Let Loose for Xbox Series X|S on October 5.

Hell Let Loose is a large-scale, online strategic first-person shooter set during World War II. Take part in some of the most iconic battles of the Western Front, including Purple Heart Lane, Omaha Beach, Foy, and many more. This is strategic combat on a whole new scale; Hell Let Loose features two teams of 50 made up with the combined arms of infantry, tanks, and artillery, and a dynamically shifting front line where individual players are key cogs in the machine of colossal warfare.

Featuring nine sweeping maps modelled on real World War II reconnaissance images and modern satellite data, each battlefield is divided up into large capture sectors. These allow for emergent and unique gameplay that pits the two forces into a fight to the death across fields, bridges, forests, and towns on an ever-evolving front line. When a sector is captured, resources are generated for your team, creating a complex metagame that will influence a team’s march to victory.

There are 14 playable roles in Hell Let Loose, each with their own abilities and specializations for the battlefield, and each with their own vital role to play in securing victory. Here’s a quick overview of some of them:

• The Commander is a unique role to Hell Let Loose. The strategic brains behind each team, they not only communicate and direct the flow of battle, but through the capture and production of supplies can bring powerful support to their reporting squads, including recon planes or devastating barrages of ordinance.

• Officers can communicate with the Commander and each other to co-ordinate attacks and defence, and relay commands to their squads. They also can build Outposts and Garrisons that allow reinforcements to spawn close to key targets.

• Medics are the soldiers that keep the squad up and in the fight. They can revive downed teammates and provide medical supplies to patch up any wounded. However, they can’t perform miracles: headshots and heavy ordinance will prove too much for their healing skills.

• Spotters work in pairs in Recon squads with a Sniper, it’s their job to identify targets and communicate with the Officers on the team to relay important battlefield information. They are the eyes of the whole team.

Hell Let Loose arrives October 5 on Xbox Series X|S. See you soon on the frontline!
