Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel console (Xbox, PS5, PS4, Switch) release explained

The game titled “Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel” is based on Norse mythology, combining hack-and-slash combat with the intense chaos of bullet hell. If you enjoy games like Vampire Survivors, this one could be a good fit as it features endless enemy waves and increasing difficulty, along with upgrade options to help you survive. It also shares the storytelling and refined roguelike gameplay found in Hades, but with an action-packed mythological theme. However, it’s unclear if it will be released for consoles at this time.

Jotunnslayer Hordes of Hel console release explained

Fans of Xbox, Switch, PS5, and PS4 may need to be patient before they can play “Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel”. The game has recently debuted in Early Access on Steam (January 21, 2025), with the current development plan concentrating on incorporating additional features such as:

  1. New playable classes
  2. More gods
  3. Additional maps
  4. World expansions

Regrettably, I haven’t found any updates regarding possible console versions just yet. However, I’m thrilled to share that the game is already compatible with Xbox controllers! This seems like an encouraging sign that we might see this fantastic experience on additional platforms in the future.

The game is garnering positive early responses from critics and has attracted a decent player base on Steam. With such a promising beginning, developers may be inspired to expedite the complete launch and potentially consider releasing Hordes of Hel on consoles earlier than expected.
