Hell Let Loose players are in for a treat because they can download three new helmets for free as part of the Near Miss DLC.
Free Helmets
The Near Miss DLC for Hell Let Loose contains three new helmets:
- M1 Battle Damaged Helmet (US)
- M42 Battle Damaged Helmet (German)
- SSh-40 Battle Damaged Helmet (Soviet)
The design team did a pretty good job of creating helmets that look like they’ve been heavily damaged by war. It’s also good to know that they’re being offered for free.
Paid DLC
Now, for those who don’t mind spending $4.99, the Battle Scarred DLC is up for grabs as well. This DLC includes two German Infantry Outfits that players can use: the Heer Veteran Jacket and Heer Shirt. The former reflects the harsh realities of war, though the user can wear it with pride knowing the history behind it. Meanwhile, the latter is more of a casual outfit meant to provide relief from the mid-summer heat.
