Team 17 and Expression Games have announced that the launch of Hell Let Loose: Vietnam will be delayed until August 13. The game had been planned to launch digitally on June 18.

The decision comes following Closed and Open Beta programs for the 50v50 multiplayer shooter.

“In addition to your feedback, we have also been carrying out intensive internal playtests for both the PC and console versions of Hell Let Loose: Vietnam and we have identified several areas where additional development time will allow us to deliver a stronger launch experience,” the companies explained in a joint statement.

“Therefore, after careful consideration, we have decided to delay launch to August 13th. This will ensure that Hell Let Loose: Vietnam launches at the quality level we expect and you deserve.”
