Hell Let Loose developer Good Fun Corporation has announced that its multiplayer extraction RPG Hunger will launch in early access on PC via Steam on December 3. The studio also revealed that an open beta test will take place between November 27 and 29 ahead of the early access launch.
According to information Oyun Günlüğü obtained from Good Fun Corporation, the announcement came with a new open beta and early access release date trailer. Set in plague-ravaged Napoleonic Europe, Hunger has players head out on expeditions solo, in duos or in trios, scavenging for resources while fighting creatures known as the Hunger and rival Living.
Three maps and more than 40 weapons at launch
Hunger will enter early access with three large and very different maps, along with more than 40 weapons. The studio says more maps, weapons, gadgets, medicines and tools will be added over time. Players can level their characters from 1 to 100 by completing quests, surviving expeditions and using the skill system.
No forced wipes and a player-driven marketplace
Hunger skips the forced progress wipes common in the extraction genre, so player progress persists. Players can choose crafting and gathering professions and sell what they make in a player-driven marketplace. Most character, bag and weapon customization is earned for free in-game.
Players can meet others, quest givers and professions in the social hub called the Chateau. Expeditions feature proximity voice chat, while the endgame includes dungeons, boss encounters and player-versus-player combat.
