In the shooter “Hell Let Loose” on Steam there is a free weekend. The game focuses strongly on realism unlike other shooters and less on fast gameplay. You can play the game for free until December 5, 2022, after which it will be on sale for some time.
What kind of game is Hell Let Loose? The game is a multiplayer shooter set in World War II. Up to 100 players fight against each other, recreating famous historical battles.
Unlike CoD or Battlefield, Hell Let Loose places less emphasis on agile movement or quick fights between players and aims to be as realistic as possible. For example, players do not have extraordinary tools at their disposal that could give them a special advantage in combat.
The game was considered the “anti-Battlefield” at the Steam release.

What does the gameplay look like in Hell Let Loose? The battle begins with 50 players on each front. You have 14 different roles to choose from, including:
- Officer
- Scout
