After staking a claim on the PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, Predator: Hunting Grounds is set to arrive on the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. To add to the news, original developer IllFonic is now the publisher for the asymmetrical multiplayer title, which will see major content updates in 2024 and 2025.

Per the press release, IllFonic will release two major upgrades in 2024. The April version 2.49 upgrade for the currently available PS4 and PC versions updates player movement, Predator and Fireteam weapon balance, UX improvements, and more. Look forward to more details on the Xbox and PS5 versions coming later this year, with new Predators also arriving later this year and in 2025.

“This game has a strong, enthusiastic player base and a vocal community that wants to see the game updated and supported,” says Charles Brungardt, CEO of IllFonic. “Now that IllFonic is publishing games, we knew we had to get Predator: Hunting Grounds back. We knew we needed to get back to the Chopper!”

The breakdown for Predator: Hunting Grounds goes like this:

  • April 2024: Patch 2.49 will cover the currently released PS4 and PC: Steam/Epic version of Predator: Hunting Grounds. The focus is on player movement, Fireteam weapon rework and balance, Predator weapon balance, and UX/playability improvements. More to come in the team’s patch notes.

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
