Hunters, we recently issued the challenge for you to come up with your best Hunt cosplay to celebrate the Harvest live event, and we were blown away by receiving so many fantastic entries. We're sure those of you who dressed up in Hunt gear for Halloween parties were the stars of the show, and we'd like to thank everyone who sent in their cosplays. The team had a tough time deciding upon our winners, but without further ado, let's run down our Hunt cosplay contest champions:
