Hunt: Showdown 1896 News

Hunters, April passed the bayou in a blur! As ever, you amazed and delighted us with all kinds of cool community content and normally we collate our favorites in this very blog. But today, we'd like to introduce you to a new format. Well, new-ish. You may have seen a video version of our community-wrap up that we created to celebrate some of our favorite content from 2021. We loved making it and the feedback was really good too.

So starting this month, we're changing the classic community spotlight blog to a monthly video review. Let us know what you think and if you prefer this format!

But before you dive into the video below, some things aren't changing. As ever, we'd like to remind you to share your Hunt-inspired creations, whatever they may be, on our social channels. We'll be checking out everything that's shared, and your content might just feature in next month's wrap-up too. You can find us on Discord, Xbox Club, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Xbox, Steam, and TikTok.

Now it's time to treat yourself to some more great video content, this time from our one of our 'Night of the Hunter' partners. This month we have a highlight video from 'Vombuz' showcasing some sick solo sniper rifle gameplay. Enjoy.

Hunters,

We are going to take the PC Live servers offline at 14:30 CEST today for maintenance and to implement a potential fix for the server issues that have occurred over the last few days.

Estimated downtime will be 1 hour but could be longer.

Please make sure to extract before this time to avoid losing your hunter.

Thanks.
