Having fully launched on PC, Hell Let Loose is now preparing for its debut on current-gen consoles, leaving players aching for hardcore World War II action asking about whether or not crossplay will be included at launch and just how far cross-platform support for the title extends.
Hell Let Loose stands apart from other first-person shooters thanks to its brutal approach to combat, which rewards planning your moves and coordinating with your team rather than quick reflexes (although having those also helps). The benefits of crossplay are obvious. Given how it’s a multiplayer title, the feature would expand the pool of available players when it comes to matchmaking and prolong the game’s life.
The good news is that Hell Let Loose cross-platform support will be available at launch, however, it won’t extend to all platforms. Based on what the developer has shared so far, only console players will be able to play alongside and against each other.
If you’re playing on PC, you won’t be able to join the same matches as others who’re doing so using their new and shiny PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X/S, at least at launch.
It’s unclear if Hell Let Loose crossplay will also include PC at some point in the future, but we’ll keep an eye out and update this article should we learn any new details.
Hell Let Loose is out now on PC but also heading to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 on October 5.
