‘Hunger’, a PvPvE First-Person Extraction RPG, Is the Newest Game From the ‘Hell Let Loose’ Devs

Hell Let Loose was a game that jumped on my radar back when it was free on PS Plus some time ago. It had been a while since a WW2 shooter caught my attention, but this one had my eye. And I got my ass kicked. You need a team and good communication. Maybe one day, I’ll get the crew together, but the game was excellent. Now, those same devs have formed a new studio, GOOD FUN CORPORATION, and they’ve revealed their new game, Hunger, a PvPvE first-person extraction RPG.

what is ‘hunger’?

A beautifully creepy-looking first-person game, that’s what. Hunger is set in what’s described as a “plague-ravaged Napoleonic Europe.” Which is the perfect place to unleash hellish character models. I don’t know why, but those old European- or Victorian-era settings just hit perfectly for the types of monsters you see in this game. But for a more detailed explanation, here’s the Steam description:

“This PvPvE extraction RPG blends brutal melee and ranged combat with deep, long-term character progression, questing, and crafting. Scavenge for resources, battle unspeakable horrors, and outlast rival Living.”

“At its core, this is a deep, first-person RPG. One where your story unfolds through the high-stakes loop of a multiplayer extraction shooter. Progress from level 1 to 100 by completing quests, surviving Expeditions, and mastering a robust skill system that evolves with your choices. The extraction loop isn’t just a gameplay feature. It’s how you grow stronger, build your reputation, and gain access to advanced weapons, rare gear, bags, armor, cosmetics, ingredients, and other vital resources. Every Expedition shapes your path forward.”

An extraction RPG sounds insane. It looks and sounds like a hellish combination of Destiny and Hunt: The Showdown. If the gameplay (in a pre-alpha state) shown is any indication, there’s some real potential for some incredible teamwork-based moments. I do wonder if any of the tactical gameplay of Hell Let Loose will find its way to Hunger. Or if it’ll be a more straightforward experience. One thing’s for sure, though. This will be on my radar, and I’m sure the crew will be down for some shooting and maiming.
