Co-op extraction shooter Hell Express to be published by Arc Games

Arc Games will publish the anime-style co-op shooter Hell Express, created by Full Metal Bagel, on PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store. While a specific release date hasn’t been announced yet, the developers plan to share updates and conduct alpha playtests with player feedback throughout 2026.

The team behind Full Metal Bagel is made up of experienced game developers who have previously worked on popular titles like The Last of Us Part II, Assassin’s Creed: Origins, and Honor of Kings.

A demo of the game Hell Express will be available to play at Taipei Game Show 2026, happening from January 29th to February 1st at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center in Taiwan.

Here is an overview of the game, via Arc Games:

Hell Express is an action-packed, top-down shooter where you and up to three other players brave a dangerous world to complete deliveries. You play as part of the Hell Express delivery company, tasked with sending packages to Limbo. Choose from a variety of characters, each with special skills and their own reasons for taking the job. Venture into the depths of Limbo, complete risky deliveries, and search for valuable items to improve your equipment and vehicles. Every choice you make matters, as it could mean success or failure.

Full Metal Bagel, a new independent game studio, is creating Hell Express, and Arc Games will be the game’s publisher.

As the creative director of Full Metal Bagel, I’m super excited to announce we’re partnering with Arc Games! This lets my team really focus on making Hell Express the game we’ve always dreamed of. Last year was amazing – winning Best Multiplayer Game at ChinaJoy and seeing the incredible response to our reveal trailer really fueled us. Now, we’re even more motivated to make Hell Express an unforgettable adventure. We want you all to be a part of it from the start, so we’ll be running playtests throughout the year to get your feedback and help shape the game. We can’t wait to share what’s coming and are so thrilled to have you join us on this journey!

Yoon Im, CEO of Arc Games, expressed strong enthusiasm for Hell Express, predicting it will be a standout title in the extraction shooter genre. He was immediately impressed by the creativity and unique approach to gameplay and world design demonstrated by the Full Metal Bagel team.
