Hell Let Loose: Vietnam Update 1.5 Teaser Trailer

In a blog post shared earlier this week, the community were introduced to the 2026 updates in a comprehensive roadmap, adding a number of highly requested features. Update 1.5 includes:

New Weapons: M14 & SKS – The US Forces will receive the M14 rifle, while the NVA will add the Type 56 SKS rifle to their arsenals.

Bell UH-1 Iroquois ‘Huey’ – One of the most recognisable helicopters from the Vietnam War, brought to life in the title with highly accurate detailing, decals and physical features like the onboard radio.

Music In-Game – Players will now be able to listen to era-appropriate music via ‘Huey’ radios; with music accessible inside the vehicle, as well as being broadcast to nearby players as you fly over the battlefield. A Spotify Playlist of the epic song list can be found here.

Within the blog post, team17 state: “Authenticity has always been incredibly important to Hell Let Loose”, most notably coming into effect when working directly with Bell on the Bell UH-1 Iroquois, where players can experience a more accurate representation of this legendary aircraft as it takes to the skies over Vietnam.”

team17 and Expression Games are fully committed to player feedback and continue to work through reports and notable improvements. Consequently, alongside these new features players can monitor further weekly updates, planned game support and a regular cadence of planned improvements and patches on the official community dev blog here.
