Hell Let Loose: Vietnam Cross-Platform Play, Explained

Does Hell Let Loose: Vietnam have cross-platform play?

Yes. Hell Let Loose: Vietnam supports cross-platform play between PC (Steam), PS5 and Xbox Series X|S from launch day — August 13, 2026. The feature was confirmed by developer Expression Games in an official blog dated April 23, 2026, while the game was still in its testing phase, and the Steam store page now lists "Cross-Platform Multiplayer" among its official tags.

The full platform list:

• PC — Steam
• PlayStation 5
• Xbox Series X|S

What the developers confirmed before launch

The April 2026 post, "Beta Testing & Crossplay Update," laid out the plan in stages. The first Closed Beta was Steam only and conducted under NDA, but the studio said its Open Beta planned for May would reach both PC and console, meaning Xbox Series X|S and PS5 players would be able to join the action. On crossplay itself the team was direct: "On launch cross-platform play will be a feature in Hell Let Loose: Vietnam." By that point beta sign-ups had already passed 100,000 registrations within the first three days — a number the studio cited as a sign of how much the multi-platform community was invested.

Tagged servers instead of one forced pool

Rather than forcing everyone into a single matchmaking pool, Vietnam tags each in-game server as cross-platform play, PC only, or console only. Server owners can enable crossplay and choose which platforms are allowed on their server, which gives community servers room to shape their own populations. If you'd rather not face mouse-and-keyboard players, stick to the platform-matched tags; if your squad is split across PC and console, any crossplay-tagged server puts you in the same match.
