‘Hunt: Showdown’ Celebrates Its 4-Year Anniversary With New Content
It’s been four years since Crytek released their PvPvE FPS Hunt: Showdown into Early Access on Steam, so they’ve decided to celebrate. Along with some special anniversary content, new goodies include a Twitch Drops campaign, an anniversary sale and some new branding.
“The whole team has worked really hard over the past four years to make Hunt a special experience for everyone,” explains Fatih Özbayram, interim game director for Hunt: Showdown. “Every match tells a unique story, and that’s why people come back to the bayou again and again.”
The new Twitch Drops campaign will include four Legendary Weapons and a Legendary Hunter, and begins February 23rd at 3pm UTC, and will run until Tuesday, March 1 at 3pm UTC. All players need to do is simply watch their favourite Hunt: Showdown Twitch streamer to start collecting free rewards.
Meanwhile, Hunt: Showdown will be getting a branding facelift to reflect its PvPvE gameplay, which also includes some new wallpaper for fans to download. And for those who are looking to jump into the game, Crytek has assembled a series of videos on its YouTube channel entitled “50 Ways To Die”, which provides some hints and tips on what not to do in the game. Crytek will also be releasing a “Beauty of Hunt” video that will showcase “some of the incredible locations and scenery” in the game for you graphics junkies.
Finally, Steam players can grab Hunt: Showdown plus four DLCs for 65% off as part of the Anniversary Bundle, which is available on Steam until March 3rd.
Hunt: Showdown is also available on PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. Meanwhile, the game is also being adapted for a series on Binge, though no release date has been announced.
Dead by Daylight fans have another Tome launch today in Tome 19: SPLENDOR, bringing with it a new content update, the game’s next Modifier, a new Tome packed with unlockable rewards, and a major update to the in-game store. Accompanying the update will be several Outfit Collections, which will be arriving over the next couple of weeks.
After giving fans a taste of what’s to come with the time-limited Lights Out Modifier, Behaviour Interactive has introduced a new one with Chaos Shuffle, offering a completely different challenge. In the Chaos Shuffle Modifier, players will be jumping into Trials with randomly selected Perks from all of Dead by Daylight’s available Perks. However, instead of relying on tactics they’ve grown accustomed to, players will now have to contend and strategize with the Perks they’re dealt at the beginning of the match. Chaos Shuffle will be out soon.
Along with the new Modifier is the new Event Tome with SPLENDOR, packed with new challenges, memories, and classy rewards to Dead by Daylight, inspired by all things gold and silk. Players will unlock memories that offer a glimpse into The Artist and Zarina Kassir’s past, with new outfits for The Trickster, Nea Karlsson, Mikaela Reid, The Skull Merchant, and many more characters across the Free and Premium Tracks. Players who purchase the Rift Pass instantly unlock a gold-adorned Outfit for The Trapper, and those who complete the track are rewarded with a brutal Ultra Rare Outfit for The Doctor.
As for the in-game store, with over 30 Chapters packed with content and outfits for our numerous Survivors and Killers, the in-game store has been given a complete visual overhaul. The new interface allow players to easily find items that are on sale, cosmetics from a specific collection, as well as purchase bundles that contain multiple items at a discounted price.
Finally, there are the new Outfit Collections that are coming to Dead by Daylight in the coming weeks.
- The Forgotten Myth Collection brings a horrifying Visceral Legendary Outfit for The Huntress, complete with its own unique Mori.
- Metamorphosis manifests in different ways. The returning Chrysalis Collection reimagines both Killer and Survivor with butterfly or moth-inspired looks.
- The return of the Visions of the Future Collection offers new futuristic looks for several Survivors.
- A new addition to the Nicolas Cage Essentials Collection proves the actor needs no stylist to look cool.
- The Forgotten Garden Collection spreads botanical brutality to two Killers.
- The Cats & Dogs Collection brings more cozy sweaters to the game inspired by our furry friends.
Dead by Daylight is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
