Team 17's popular World War II shooter Hell Let Loose is coming to next-generation consoles. According to the publisher's financial report, the 100-player multiplayer title will make its way to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S this year.

For those who might have missed it, Hell Let Loose first hit Steam Early Access in 2019, where it developed a pretty loyal community. Team 17 describes the title as a "hardcore World War II first person shooter with epic battles of 100 players with infantry, tanks, artillery, a dynamically shifting front line and a unique resource based RTS-inspired meta-game."

There's plenty of emphasis on teamwork as two teams of 50 are dropped onto a massive map to duke it out. Every player has a unique role as part of a Platoon, and even works under the leadership of Officers and force Commander. It aims for a super realistic experience, in other words, so if Call Of Duty has gotten a little too fantastical for you, you might want to check this out.

While the mention of Hell Let Loose coming to next-gen consoles was a throwaway line in the financial report, fans are still exciting to see that it is happening.

"Continuing on from 2020, with one of our most ambitious pipelines delivered not just in the number of game launches and updates but technically as a remote work force, our fiscal 2021 pipeline is no less ambitious," the report reads. "In addition to new IP, there is a special mention for some of our existing portfolio titles such as Hell Let Loose which will arrive on Next Generation Consoles this year alongside Worms Rumble and Overcooked! All You Can Eat which will launch on additional existing platforms with full cross play."

Official details on how Hell Let Loose will take advantage of next-gen hardware will no doubt be shared when Team 17 is ready to share more on when exactly this year the game is coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Personally, I hope to see the shooter take full advantage of the DualSense controller's adaptive triggers for complete immersion.
