Hell Let Loose: Vietnam Update

 

everplay, a leading global independent ("indie") developer and publisher of premium video games, working simulation games and children's edutainment apps, announces an updated launch date for Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, the next instalment in the Hell Let Loose franchise.

 

Hell Let Loose: Vietnam will be released on Thursday, 13 August 2026. Excitement continues to build about the game across the community, with encouraging levels of pre-orders.

 

The recent large scale open beta test attracted over 352,000 unique players, with DAU1 peaking at over 184,000. While feedback on the content of the game was positive, some performance improvements were identified for further refinement ahead of launch. The Hell Let Loose team have listened to the community and has taken the decision to push back the launch of the game to ensure the best possible gaming experience for the players.

 

The Board remains confident in delivering FY 2026 results in line with current market expectations2, with delivery of adjusted EBITDA weighted to H2, as previously communicated.
