Frankfurt (Germany), March 31st , 2022 – Crytek today announced the latest Legendary Hunters to be added to Hunt: Showdown. The ranks of the American Hunters Association are now bolstered by leading characters from some of Crytek's most beloved franchises, and you can see them in action in our latest video.

The new Legendary Hunters available for a limited time only are:

  • Prophet from Crysis
  • Marius Titus from Ryse: Son of Rome
  • "Climber" from The Climb
  • Laika from Robinson: The Journey

Each character arrives with their unique roster of skills to bring new gameplay options to players. Post-human warrior Prophet comes equipped with the devastating abilities of the Nanosuit, including Strength, Speed, and Cloaking abilities. Roman soldier Marius Titus brings his sword to gunfights in the bayou. From the Climb, "Climber" can access places other Hunters simply cannot, providing new tactical advantages. Finally, baby Tyrannosaurus Rex, Laika, becomes the first playable dinosaur in the game.

About Hunt: Showdown

Hunt: Showdown is a competitive first-person bounty hunting game that packs the thrill of survival games into a match-based format. Set in Louisiana in 1895, the game boasts a mixture of PvP and PvE elements that creates a uniquely tense experience. It's not just the creatures who are a threat—it's every Hunter on the map. In the classic game mode, a match of Hunt pits 12 players—playing solo or in teams of two or teams of three —against each other as they race to take out gruesome beasts for a bounty they must collect and get off of the map, while Hunt's quickplay mode offers a shorter match for solo players to scavenge for weapons as they compete for a diminishing pool of bounty. The higher the risk, the higher the reward–but a single mistake could cost everything. Hunt is available now on Steam. For more information, visit www.huntshowdown.com.
