Deal | Steam: “The best World War II shooter in years” is now cheaper than ever

Hell Let Loose, developed by Black Matter in partnership with Team17, launched in July 2021 after nearly two years in Early Access. Known for its large-scale battles, realistic vehicles and historically accurate weapons, the game has earned a reputation as one of the most intense multiplayer shooters around. Instead of fast-paced arcade action, it delivers a gritty, authentic battlefield experience where teamwork is essential – lone wolves won’t last long, and clear communication is key to survival.

The game features massive maps based on real-world battlefields such as Kursk, Carentan and El Alamein. Players can choose from a range of roles – from riflemen and snipers to tank commanders. One player assumes the role of commander, directing the team and calling in artillery or air support. But winning isn’t just about fighting – logistics play a crucial part. Engineers build supply points and repair stations, trucks deliver ammo and construction materials to the front, and the commander can airdrop equipment when needed. Efficient resource management is essential for deploying tanks, operating artillery and pushing the line forward.

Communication is the backbone of Hell Let Loose. Players are organized into squads, each connected through an integrated VOIP system. Multiple radio channels allow for coordination within squads or direct communication between squad leaders and the commander. Rather than relying on constant shootouts or solo heroics, success depends on tactics, teamwork and smart coordination – an aspect that was particularly emphasized in GameStar’s German review.
