Hunters,

We want to thank all of you for joining us in the bayou for our third anniversary celebrations and, of course, your participation in our As The Crow Flies live event, which saw the introduction of our latest boss, Scrapbeak. In fact, so many of you joined us for the live event that we broke our concurrent players record, and the team couldn't be more proud.

It's been a wild three years since Hunt launched, and over the last few weeks, an unprecedented frenzy of activity as you came together to unlock Scrapbeak and get those sweet rewards in our latest live event. That event has since flown, but we wanted to share the scale of your achievements with a special community infographic. From the staggering amount of Legendary Unlocks to your successes and failures in taking down Scrapbeak and more, we'd like to thank all 695305 of you who joined us in the bayou for the As The Crow Flies live event.



In addition to the live event, we celebrated with a host of giveaways, and, of course, we ran our latest weapon skin contest, which had some awesome entries. The winner skins will be added to the game in future updates. Talking about future updates, we, of course, have plans to expand, enhance and grow the game as we move ahead with development. Your feedback is vital to how we shape the game, so keep it coming!

"Our Live Event has been a roaring success, breaking all records with a peak CCU of 32,698," said Hunt Live Service Producer Loic Raimond. "Our third anniversary has been all about celebrating the game and the fantastic community that surrounds Hunt: Showdown. The community pulled together to unlock our terrifying new boss, Scrapbeak, who is now roaming around the bayou. Approach with caution! Once again, we would like to say thank you so much for a fantastic three years, and we can't wait to show the community what we have in store for them in the future".

Thank you for joining us on the journey so far, and we hope for the months and years ahead. Your passion for Hunt blows us away.

See you in the bayou,
~ Your Hunt: Showdown Community Team

Hunters,

The PC servers are back online.

~Thank you for your patience, and Happy Hunting!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hunters,

We will be taking the PC live servers offline for scheduled maintenance tomorrow, April 22nd at 10:00am CEST.

Estimated downtime will be around 2 hours (Please keep in mind it might take longer).

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

Thanks.

~The Hunt team.

Hunters,

During the event, we received reports that some users were not rewarded event points correctly in certain circumstances. We were able to identify and resolve this issue with a hotfix during the event but had to dig further into the logs to accurately track the points that had been lost.

We want to grant these points to those affected by the earlier issues, but to do so, we need to perform maintenance on the servers (both PC and console) while the event is live.

With this in mind, we have decided to extend the duration of the event by 24 hours. This will allow us to perform the required maintenance while ensuring the downtime does not prevent the rest of you from missing out on further event progression. The event will now end on April 22nd at 16:00 CEST.

The scheduled maintenance will be set for 09:00 CEST for PC, and 12:00 CEST for consoles on Thursday, April 22nd. Once complete, those affected will automatically receive the points that were lost earlier in the event.

Once again, we would like to thank the community for making this event our biggest one to date. Thank you for being there with us and see you in the Bayou!

~The Hunt Team.
