HUNT: SHOWDOWN RELEASES NEW UPDATE
FOR PC
Update 1.1 brings new weapons,
Legendary DLC, and many other improvements to Crytek’s multiplayer bounty
hunting game
FRANKFURT,
Germany – Oct. 18, 2019 –
Crytek has released PC Update 1.1 for the online multiplayer bounty hunting
game Hunt: Showdown.
Having recently launched out of early access, Hunt: Showdown’s development team is already
well in the habit of releasing frequent updates driven by player feedback,
and 1.1 continues that tradition.
Among the community requests in Update 1.1
are the Stay-in-Lobby feature and the new Choke Bomb, which can extinguish
most fires (though it will also make your Hunter cough, alerting players to
your location). Other additions in the update include the Bornheim Nr 3 Match,
improvements to UI, localization, gunplay, and AI, and all-new Legendary
content.
The Legendary weapons arriving with Update
1.1 include an elegantly detailed Romero 77 called the Southern Belle, as well
as Sins of the Son, a brutal and bloody Romero 77. In addition to these two new
weapons, 1.1 brings three Legendary DLC items: the Last Gust, a Legendary
Winfield M1873 Swift rifle, and two new Legendary characters: Phantom and
Llorona’s Heir. The Last Gust DLC can be purchased for 3.99 USD/EUR, while the
Phantom and Llorona’s Heir DLCs can be purchased for 4.99 USD/EUR each.
Hunt:
Showdown is available for PC on Steam
and the Crytek
Shop, as well as on Xbox One in the Microsoft
store. For more information, visit https://www.huntshowdown.com.
About Hunt: Showdown
Hunt:
Showdown is a competitive
first-person bounty hunting game that packs the thrill of survival games into a
match-based format. Set in Louisiana in 1895, the game boasts a mixture of PvP
and PvE elements that creates a uniquely tense experience. It’s not just the creatures
who are a threat—it’s every Hunter on the map. In the classic game mode, a
match of Hunt pits
up to twelve players—playing solo or in teams of two or three—against each
other as they race to take out gruesome beasts for a bounty, while Hunt’s Quick Play mode
offers a shorter match for solo players to scavenge for weapons as they compete
for a diminishing pool of bounty. The higher the risk, the higher the
reward–but a single mistake could cost everything. Hunt is available now on Steam and
Xbox One in the Microsoft
store. For more information, visit https://www.huntshowdown.com.
