If your weekend plans are still up in the air and you’re inclined towards some virtual combat, consider diving into the open beta of Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, which is available until Monday. This latest installment, announced in 2025, serves as a modern sequel to the acclaimed World War II military simulation, Hell Let Loose.
Game Features
Hell Let Loose: Vietnam retains the original’s hallmark 50v50 battles but introduces an exhilarating twist with the inclusion of air power—specifically helicopters—across six expansive maps. While comparisons to Battlefield Vietnam may come to mind, it’s essential to note that Hell Let Loose leans more towards a hardcore military simulation experience.
As highlighted by PC Gamer’s Morgan Park, the game emphasizes the importance of teamwork and strategic tactics, which is further underscored on its Steam page. Players can expect a focus on historical accuracy, enhancing the immersive experience.
For those eager to catch a glimpse of the action, the first gameplay reveal trailer is available for viewing, showcasing the game’s dynamic environment and intense combat scenarios.
It’s worth noting that while players can engage in the beta and enjoy the thrill of progression, any experience points or unlocks earned during this testing phase will not carry over to the full release, which is slated for August 13.
