If you’ve ever dropped into Hell Let Loose, you already know it’s not your average shooter. It’s big, chaotic, and built around teamwork instead of lone wolf play. The moment you jump into a 50v50 battle, you realize this is more about coordination and strategy than just running around with a gun. Naturally, one of the first things people ask is whether you can play with friends on other systems. So let’s get straight to it, is Hell Let Loose cross platform?
|Can PlayStation and Xbox play together?
Yes, but only partly. If you’re on Playstation 5 and your buddy has an Xbox Series X or S, you can squad up. The game does support crossplay between the two consoles, which is great news because the larger the player pool, the better the matchmaking feels.
Unfortunately, PC doesn’t join the party. Right now, PC players are locked to PC-only servers, so you won’t be able to squad up with console friends if you’re playing on Steam or the Epic Games Store.
|Why no PC crossplay?
A lot of it comes down to balance. A mouse and keyboard setup gives PC players much more precise aim than a controller. In a game where positioning and accuracy matter so much, that difference could throw everything off.
There’s also the technical side to consider. I’ve played plenty of matches where the scale alone is impressive, hundreds of moving parts, massive maps, tanks, artillery, infantry squads. Trying to keep that smooth across PC and consoles isn’t as simple as flipping a switch.

|Do you keep your progress across platforms?
This is where things get a little frustrating. Hell Let Loose doesn’t support cross progression. So if you’re grinding levels on PC and then decide to switch to PlayStation or Xbox, you’ll be starting from scratch. New rank, new unlocks, everything. I learned that the hard way after buying it on a second system and realizing none of my progress carried over.
|Is it cross generation?
Yes, and that’s a relief. If you’re on Playstation 5 but your friend is still on Playstation 4, you can play together. The same goes for Xbox players. It’s a nice touch because it keeps the community together without forcing everyone to upgrade right away.
|Hell Let Loose Vietnam
Hell Let Loose Vietnam is an upcoming spin on the original World War II shooter, shifting the battlefield to the Vietnam War era. Instead of storming the beaches of Normandy, players will find themselves fighting through dense jungles, rice fields, and chaotic village skirmishes. You can check out the trailer above. The focus remains on large-scale, teamwork-driven battles, but with new weapons, vehicles, and tactics that reflect the gritty and unpredictable nature of Vietnam warfare.
So, is Hell Let Loose cross platform? Yes, but only between PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. PC players are left out for now, and there’s no cross progression to carry your progress between systems. The good news is that cross generation works, which means you can still link up with friends who haven’t made the jump to the latest console.
It’s not a perfect setup, but Hell Let Loose is still one of the most intense multiplayer shooters out there. The scale, teamwork, and realism make it stand out from the rest. If you and your friends are lucky enough to be on the same platform, you’re in for some unforgettable battles.
