Seems this is launching on Xbox Series X and PS5 October 5th.

Made a thread in here a while back, I played it on PC really looking forward to it it pretty unforgiving but fun once you start to learn everything.

The bombing effects are really cool

My potato PC won't run it. My Series X will though. My brother raves about it on his PC.

It's cross platform but only consoles I believe? So I won't be squaring up with him.

I've tried this a few times but never invested enough time in it really; seems very good though although I'm dubious that some of the team-work that's required will work as well on console.

Always room for one more WW2 shooter!

Oooh this looks good. I’m in… if I could get my hands on a Series X.

be interesting to see how the plays on console as its taken very seriously on pc and mic is usually a must or its just chaos

Play it a lot on PC, over 500 hours and in a clan for semi-competitive play. As above, not sure how well it'll translate onto console so don't know why the devs are bothering. I got a closed Beta key but the only time I've tried to play it couldn't find any servers.

I see there has been whisperings that this may be the PSPlus PS5 game for October. It would make sense as the release date coincides with the date that Plus games should be available in Oct.

Yeah I've always seen it as WW2 version of Squad on PC, I wonder how it will do on console.

I'm sure Insurgency will be fine on console but Squad and HLL are possibly a step too far.

yeah sandstorm will be fine but cant see it selling much with the all the other shooter on console i think the run and gun crowd will go cod and rest will go bf then you have halo on xbox i just think games like squad and hll are to hardcore for console players i remember when the 360 came out everyone was talking in game chat now your lucky to hear a 12 year old kid playing music or just rambling on

Its a good point; its pretty rare to hear much chat now; in those 360 days everyone did it; I half wonder if getting a wired headset included with the console back then might have influenced that

Think its mainly party chat, I know i rarely play in public voice and mainly play with my friends, party chat wasnt a thing early in 360s life

Apparently HLL is in October’s ps plus line up I’ll be amazed and delighted if true

Clarkson · 26 Sep 2021 at 16:22

There is also the open beta on the ps store now.

Would do great for a game like this.

Amazing as it looks and is said to be on pc, many will sleep on it for console.

If it's included as part of the ps plus sub, more players will be willing to give it a shot

Plainsong · 26 Sep 2021 at 18:37

If it's free I'll give it a go.

Maybe it ended then, I played Saturday and Sunday.

I didn't even know there was a beta until I searched and saw it alongside the full game marked for October release.
