Green Hell nails XSX|S, PS5 release date, will be a free update
Survival gamers will definitely know about the 2019 release Green Hell, which currently has over 50,000 reviews on Steam. Developer Creepy Jar has never let his game rot, continuing to provide free updates over the years for fans to enjoy. Most recently came free update #20, Ants, which added giant ants to the game along with other items, mechanics and more.
Well, it looks like Creepy Jar has a surprise for fans of Green Hell: the long-awaited next-gen console launch of the game. It will be available on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PlayStation 5 from August 14, 2024.
If you own the last-gen version of the game, you’re not left behind. This new update will be a free update for all owners of the last-gen version of the game, and it will include previously unreleased content that was only available for the PC version of the game until this point.
For those who enjoy survival games, Green Hell is truly one of the best. It is a realistic experience where you can build your own shelter, find food and cook it, and find materials to continue surviving in the jungle. In my opinion, this is one of the most authentic survival experience games available. There are no auto-heals or health potions; if you get hurt, you make your own bandages out of leaves and hope the injury doesn’t kill you.
You can also invite friends on your trip! Imagine fishing together hoping a crocodile isn’t around the corner…
The new current-gen console version of Green Hell will be available for $24.99 USD at launch on August 14th, with a hefty 20% discount for the first 14 days. Console players who were unable to enjoy the more recent additions to the game will have access to update 17 (Storage and Transportation), update 18 (Fortresses) and update 19 (Flamekeeper).
To summarize those updates, you can expect to see a lot of new features and items – including storage baskets, increased storage capacity, viewing platforms, fences and gates, and of course the Eternal Flame Totem (used for the Flame Ritual). , which summons hordes of Waraha so you can get yourself extra loot and a unique weapon). These are just a select few of the features that were added in those three updates; there’s a lot more you’ll be able to experience on your XSX|S or PS5 with the console update.
To receive the free update, you must first purchase either the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 version of the game.
Creepy Jar also explained that last generation consoles will no longer receiving updates for Green Hell as they focus on current-gen consoles and beyond. Last-gen consoles cannot keep up with the demands of the updates, so anyone playing Green Hell with older consoles should not expect to receive additional content for their game.
Due to the lack of compatibility between current and last-gen console versions of the game, neither the Xbox Series X|S or PlayStation 5 versions will be compatible with their previous generation counterparts. There will be no cross-play between versions and no save transfer option from last-gen consoles to current.
The chance to get the update for free if you had the last-gen console version is an incredibly kind gesture from the developers. If that means starting over, at least players will finally have access to new content.
