Game Details: Hunt: Showdown is a competitive first-person bounty hunting game that packs the thrill of survival
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 ten players—playing solo or in teams of two—against each other as they race to take out gruesome beasts for a bounty they must collect and get off of the map, while Hunt’s quickplay 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.… Expand

"An incredibly tense survival horror multiplayer FPS, where you are just as likely to die at the hands of a monster as you are another player. Listening out for enemy activity is crucial, and once you learn how all of its systems work Hunt: Showdown is a an extremely satisfying game." ... Read full review

"Hunt: Showdown is an amazing game and I’m glad Crytek have persevered over the years because this needed to happen. Anyone with a fetish for horror should pick up this title. The stealth and PvPvE work well and the game feels like a shot of adrenaline when a gunfight breaks out between players." ... Read full review

"Hunt: Showdown is a good multiplayer proposal that mixes the environment and the competition together with the cooperation in an intelligent way. Its atmosphere and sound immerse you from the first moment and its first hours impact and attract. However, the scarcity of playable modes and the existence of legendary hunters and weapons will make you look away from the experience after a few hours. He is not an essential multiplayer, but somehow he manages to be appealing and offer a different experience within his potential market. " ... Read full review

"While it’s come a long way since I played it in its first iteration from Game Preview, it still feels as though something is missing. Maybe I’m just not a fan of the forced PvP elements, as I’ve died to other players much more than any boss or monster in the game. Yes, that’s part of the experience, but it would have been a less frustrating experience if I was at least paired up with players of equal skill and level, not those that have done it all. There’s obviously a following, but with a PvP-less option, I know I would have stuck around longer with some friends trying to collect those bounties." ... Read full review

An incredible pvp / pve shooter.
With fantastic graphics. An incredibly well-built world and setting. Huge variety of enemies, weapons, perks and bosses. The maps are splendid both graphically and level design.
In conclusion Hunt Shodown is an atypical, unique and with a great personality battle royal.

IMO, the keys going forward or moving towards an increase in the games popularity will lay on development of more maps, increased the variety of monsters to banish (from the current) as well as new environmental threats or zombies roaming the land. I know customization is coming and its an essential component in FPS; "If I die, i will die well dressed" the game is in a good place with the potential to be great. I hope the developers continue creating and pushing for this game, I look forward to engaging with more content......see you in the swamps!… Expand

This game deserves nothing less than a 9/10 . There is nothing like this game and anyone that gives it lower doesnt like PVP games. I repeatThis game deserves nothing less than a 9/10 . There is nothing like this game and anyone that gives it lower doesnt like PVP games. I repeat THIS IS A PVP GAME WITH PVE ELEMENTS! The game is extremely competitive and difficult and takes a lot more time to understand than people who have given it poor reviews even bothered to play . Any review that mentions fighting bosses as a main draw clearly hasn't played much since bosses can be dispatched in a few minutes with the right weapons . As you fight enemies the game gives you info on them , including their weaknesses. The main draw is beating a boss or waiting while someone else does to then grab the token and escape . Hard part is that everyone still playing can see your location and may start to hunt you down as well as try and kill any team that gets in their way . The game will sometimes put 2 bosses on a single map and you have to decide which one you want to try and get first or wait till someone else starts to then shoot them up during a boss fight . The weapons and gear you unlock is fantastic but you can still make due with basic stuff if you are smart . When you extract you get 2x experience and are able to add perks to your character. The awesome part is that you can gave a high level character die and have to start from scratch.… Expand

Mixed are from people who wanted this to be another CoD clone and lack the desire for something new and unique in gaming. This game is an online game like no other. I can imagine it being jarring without a friend, so get a buddy! If you have one or two friends to start this with you, I'd say its one if the best recent multiplayer experiences.

This game could be a perfect multiplayer game if not for two things. Aim assist and gunslinger mode. That **** just encourages COD players to migrate over. I already conwuered that frontier in CODMOW2. Its boring. Remove these handicaps, I haven't put any effort into learning to use the aim assist snap. I do feel obligated to use gunslinger but it sucks. Youre just choosing to have a disadvantage by not using that scheme. I know I have put myself in that position by not using the autoaim, but both would be too much. If I were losing a lot I would change it but it still feels cheap. It removes much of the aiming skill and replaces it with "learning when to snap on" instead of...you know...practicing aiming.… Expand
