help Hunt: Showdown FAQ

Who developed the extraction shooter Hunt: Showdown?

The unique multiplayer shooter was developed by Crytek, utilizing their proprietary CryEngine technology. After a lengthy early access period, it fully released on PC and consoles in 2019.

What is the main objective in a match of Hunt: Showdown?

Up to 12 players form teams of bounty hunters who must track down, kill, and "banish" a massive boss monster lurking in the swamp. Once banished, players must safely extract the "bounty token" to one of the exit points on the map while fighting off other players.

What is unique about the weapons and setting in Hunt: Showdown?

The game takes place in the year 1895, meaning players fight with brutal late-19th-century weapons like the Mosin-Nagant rifle and the Sparks LRR. The slow, methodical gunplay is balanced by the use of supernatural "Dark Sight" used to track clue locations.

What happens if a player dies in Hunt: Showdown?

If a hunter is killed by a monster or another player, they permanently lose that specific character and all their equipped gear. However, players can recruit a new hunter at the base, or, if a teammate survives the match, they can be "rescued" to keep playing.
