The Water Devil Graces The Latest ‘Hunt: Showdown’ Update
A couple of weeks ago, it was mentioned that after a brief free-to-play weekend, Crytek would be pushing out another update for their PvEvP shooter, Hunt: Showdown. And just like that, Update 2.3 is now live, bringing with it new gadgets and the Water Devil.
The Water Devil is the highlight of this water-themed update. The monster will stalk Hunters who are wading through water. As such, the addition of water-capable weapons was a must, and waxed Dynamite and a waterproofed Firebomb will help Hunters stay alive in fights against the Water Devil.
Things are made more difficult to hunt quarry now, and not just the Water Devil. Ducks (which are now visible on some waterways) will make noise at a player’s approach, alerting enemies and other Hunters that someone is there. Stealth and strategy are therefore now more important to stay alive.
To read the full breakdown of the update, you can head to the game’s Steam page.
As well, earlier in the week, it was announced that Hunt: Showdown is creeping closer to an Xbox One release with the game becoming available Xbox Game Preview in the near future. If you do purchase the game while it’s in Game Preview, you’ll get the 1.0 version at no additional cost once it’s released.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
