How to play Hell Let Loose Open Beta on PlayStation: Time & date
With Hell Let Loose’s popularity on PC, console players have been desperately awaiting its arrival on Xbox and PlayStation. We’re one step closer to that being a reality with devs Black Matter announcing the Open Beta for PlayStation 5.
Following August’s closed Beta, it has now been confirmed that Hell Let Loose’s Open Beta will be from September 16 to September 20, 2021. It will begin at 3 AM PT / 6 AM ET / 11 AM BST.
As this is an Open Beta, you don’t need to register or get a code to play the game. Simply:
- Search for Hell Let Loose on the PlayStation Store (once the Open Beta goes live)
- Download Hell Let Loose’s Open Beta
- Launch the game from your downloads or library
When is the Xbox beta?
As the first console beta is only on PlayStation 5, Xbox fans are keen to learn when they’ll get early access to Hell Let Loose.
Xbox players will have to wait a while longer as they’re “taking it one beta at a time,” but confirmed that “As more things get locked in, we’ll share them with the community” on their Twitter account.
Keep an eye on Charlie INTEL for any updates on the Hell Let Loose Xbox beta.
Does Hell Let Loose have crossplay and cross-progression?
Hell Let Loose’s crossplay will be between Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 consoles only.
As for cross-progression, Black Matter confirmed Hell Let Loose won’t feature it as “the plan is to keep console and PC as entirely separate ecosystems.”
So, Xbox and PlayStation players will be able to queue into the same servers and squad up, but PC players will be playing their own separate version of the game.
Hell Let Loose isn’t the only WW2 FPS game coming to consoles this year, as Call of Duty: Vanguard’s Open Beta also goes live on September 16 ahead of its November release.
