Over four years since the launch of hardcore World War 2 shooter Hell Let Loose, a whole new installment, Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, is on the way. But its devs want to make one thing very clear – this isn't a replacement for the first game in the series.
Sitting down with franchise director Steve Woodward and producer Craig Clark at Gamescom, I'm shown what the upcoming shooter looks like in action. New mechanics like swimming and even the ability to fly around in helicopters immediately ensure that Vietnam feels fresh, but the pair emphasize during our conversation that just because a new game is happening, that doesn't mean that fans of the original are being "abandoned." It's not a sequel, they tell me, but more of a separate experience, and one that's being worked on by a different internal team than those who are continuing to develop Hell Let Loose.
