Interest in HUNGER has continued to grow since its reveal, with the game now surpassing 500,000 Steam wishlists.
Developed by Good Fun Corporation, the original creators of Hell Let Loose, HUNGER is a multiplayer extraction RPG combining MMO-style progression with high-stakes extraction gameplay, with first-person shooting and slashing combat.
