In a new collaboration, Hunt partners with the legendary musician and gaming enthusiast Post Malone to bring a carnival of supernatural horror in a brand new upcoming event 

Frankfurt, DE – 27^th November: 9x diamond-certified and gaming enthusiast Post Malone is set to make his mark on the extraction shooter genre with the arrival of the biggest ‘Hunt: Showdown 1896’ event to date – Post Malone’s Murder Circus! Bringing a unique blend of musical artistry and supernatural horror to the Bayou, Gulch and beyond, Post Malone takes on the role of the outcast Ringmaster turned deposed King – the lord of the circus and the human oddities who made up its twisted crew.

Post Malone comments about his passion for ‘Hunt: Showdown 1896’: 

“You’re either hundred percent in or you’re done. I could either rock this dude and send him off, or I’m totally naked…. Every game I’m shaking, like this is awesome. Whenever you pull it off, I feel like I’m the best player in the entire world.”

Post Malone’s Murder Circus invites players into a nightmarish world where a once-traveling carnival has been transformed by a mysterious artifact known as the HelioStone. Post Malone, who plays the role of the vengeance driven Deposed King, the former Ringmaster, brings his unique creative vision to the game’s gritty historical landscapes marred by Corruption. 

Driven out by the HelioStone’s power, Post shadowed the Circus across the continent vowing to destroy HelioStone. Every time it manifests, he does his best to tear it down to the ground. Sometimes he recruits others – bounty hunters, desperadoes, and suchlike – to do it. Sometimes he takes on the task himself. But always the HelioStone eludes him, and so the chase continues.

Post Malone’s Murder Circus also features a new Monster – orphaned bear cubs, turned unnatural beast, Ursa Mortis. With deformed bodies and minds, twisted into savage hunger by the HelioStone, the monstrous bear that stalks the Circus grounds and will charge at Hunters and attack with a lethal roar. 

The collaboration introduces a series of themed hunter skins, weapon variants, enemies and more. Players are invited to experience a surreal carnival-inspired aesthetic that combines the game’s gritty historical setting and extraction shooter mechanics with the artist’s signature style.

Scott Lussier, Game Director for Hunt: Showdown 1896 comments on the collaboration: 

“We’re thrilled to have had the opportunity to collaborate with such a passionate and high-profile Hunt fan such as Post Malone. Hunt: Showdown 1896 has always been about creating immersive, high-stakes gameplay. And with Post Malone’s Murder Circus, we’re bringing a new level of intensity and dark entertainment to the Hunt universe”. 

Post Malone’s Murder Circus event will soon be available for Hunt: Showdown 1896 players on PC, PlayStation 5 and Series X|S. Be there, when the curtain rises, and the dethroned King of Post Malone’s Murder Circus appears!

About Hunt: Showdown 1896

Hunt: Showdown 1896 is the new era of the competitive first-person bounty hunting game, packing the thrill of survival and the reward of profit into a horror match-based format. Set in Colorado in 1896, the game boasts a mixture of PvP and PvE elements that create a uniquely tense experience. It’s not just the monsters who are a threat—it’s every Hunter on the map. In the classic Bounty Hunt game mode, a match pits 12 players—playing solo or in teams of two or three—against each other as they race to take out gruesome creatures for a Bounty they must collect and extract from the map. Hunt’s Soul Survivor 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 you everything. Hunt: Showdown 1896 is out now on PC, PlayStation 5 and Series X|S.
