GOOD FUN CORPORATION—a development studio comprised of the original developers of *Hell Let Loose*—has announced plans to conduct a server load test for its upcoming online multiplayer action game, *HUNGER*.
Server Load Test Scheduled for October 25
Set in a world ravaged by a plague during the Napoleonic Wars, the PvPvE title *HUNGER* challenges players to battle monsters and hostile players while gathering loot and striving to escape.
It has been announced that a “Server Slam” event, designed to test server load, will be held on October 25 (local time), which marks the final day of the closed beta test currently underway since October 19.

The final day of the Server Slam is fast approaching, but we’re still accepting applications to join the ongoing Closed Beta Test itself. If you apply via the “Join Playtest” section on the game’s Steam store page, you may be selected to participate (this is a manual, case-by-case approval process, not automated).Selected participants can not only play themselves but also invite up to three friends.
A Deliberate Focus on Slower Movement Speed
As a side note, on October 21, the developer posted a lengthy explanation detailing why the character’s movement speed feels quite slow when you first start playing the game, and why—even though this slowness is mitigated to some extent as the character levels up—the design intentionally includes a fixed upper limit.
The main reason cited is that the game prioritizes interaction with environmental objects and the strategic back-and-forth of close-quarters combat; faster movement speeds would hinder these elements.
Early Access is scheduled to begin sometime in 2026.
"HUNGER," a must-see for fans of escape-style action games, is scheduled to launch in Early Access on PC via the Epic Games Store and Steam sometime in 2026.
