Hunger sets 3 December Steam early access, open beta on 27–29 November

Release date and beta

Good Fun Corp has set 3 December 2026 for Hunger's early access release on Steam. Before that, the game gets its first and only open beta, from 27 to 29 November.

Anyone who requests access on Steam can join the beta, the studio said. Earlier tests were not open in the same way.

What kind of game it is

Hunger is a PvPvE extraction game set in an alternate, plague-ravaged Europe. Combat leans on melee, and the few firearms available are deliberately clunky, according to the studio.

The player-versus-environment side goes beyond fighting. It includes puzzle-solving, quests and dungeon raids in the style of role-playing games.

Outside matches, Good Fun Corp has built MMO-style progression, a hub area with distinct characters and several playable classes. The beta is meant to let players sample all of it.

Studio and wishlists

Good Fun Corp is made up of the original developers behind Hell Let Loose. Hunger is its next project.

The game is among Steam's most-wishlisted titles, with more than 700,000 wishlists, according to the developer. Its closed beta ran alongside the early access launch of Modern Warfare 4's DMZ mode, and the studio says it did not suffer for the overlap.

Launch content and platforms

The early access version ships with three large maps, six playable characters and five Mastery trees holding more than 100 Masteries to unlock.

Hunger has been announced for PC only. The studio has not said when or whether it will come to consoles.
