The Wakefield-based (the UK) indie games publisher and developer Team 17 and Sydney-based (New South Wales´, Australia) indie games developer Black Matter Pty Ltd, today announced with great excitement and happiness that they have just released a brand-new content update (update 14.5) for their acclaimed World War II shooter “Hell Let Loose” (the said new content update is available right now for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S).

Update 14.5 introduces a variety of fixes and reworks, addressing community feedback to the British Forces that launched earlier this year. Featuring updated maps, new weapons, new uniforms and more.

Key updates include:

Two New Forces: Players can now fight as the brand new British Eighth Army and the German Africa Corps.

El Alamein will now be set at dusk.
Driel is now set at Night.
Additional Uniforms: In Update 14.5 the following have been added: German Africa Corps and the British Eighth Army Uniforms. Alongside these are the British Eighth Army MK-II Helmet, DAK Helmet and DAK Field Cap.
New Weapons: The M1928A1 Thompson has been added to Hell Let Loose as well as the SMLE No.1 Mk III, which is replacing the Pattern 1914. Alongside these additions, a Bipod has been added to the Bren.
New Tank: Included in Update 14.5 is the new Churchill Mk III Tank.

“We’re so excited to see you on the frontlines in Patch 14.5! Battle on El Alamein requires you to adapt to new dynamics – dusk sees the map permeated with fog – paving the way for different approaches to becoming the victor. We hope you enjoy the new weapons and map updates!” says Greg Medlin, Community Manager at Hell Let Loose.

“And a huge thank you to everyone who participated in our PTE; the feedback has been instrumental in helping us fine-tune this update. See you on the field.”

Hell Let Loose is a team-based World War II first-person shooter featuring epic battles across infantry, tanks, artillery, and a dynamically shifting front line. Players can choose from one of 14 playable roles within the infantry, recon, and armor units, each offering a unique gameplay experience.
