    Battle Royale with a useless time filler in the form of zombies that idle around. Players who play more have better equipment which causes huge balance issues.

    fantastic game. The only thing that holds it back is lack of maps and bosses. It's cheap so that can be forgiven to a point. But what is here is a great mix of stealth and action, across 2 excellently detailed maps, with a good variation of monsters and bosses. It becomes repetitive really quick if your fond of the pve part that is mixed with pvp and want both to be equal focus. Butfantastic game.

    HUNT: SHOWDOWN is a western-style FPS PvP game with elements of PvE. Audio is very important in this game, which is refreshing, and adds a creative flavor to this game that makes it stand out in a sea of monotony. Gameplay and mechanics are solid. Gameplay is often slower-paced, but speckled with moments of high intensity and adrenaline.

    Hunt showdown is not your typical Shooter/Battle royale, since it takes a completely different approach to Pubg/Apex etc.
    In the main mode "bounty hunt", you do not pick up weapons from the map, but instead buy them beforehand for ingame-Dollars. Also, your character is not generic, but each one has a certain name, you can level him/her up and spec according to your wishes.

    But dont get too attached! Whenever your character dies to either PVE Monsters or PVP Players (and does not get revived by a teammate) he is lost forever together with all the equipment you spent your hard cash on.
    This is what makes this game so exciting. Every step could be the last one for your poor avatar.
    Although Hunt might have its edges and might not feel as smooth as Apex, for example, the emotions you feel after failure or success both are much stronger.
    Still, the best part of this game is definitely the audio. Never before have I been able to pinpoint the three-dimensional position of enemies as accurately as in this game. You not only can distinguish when your enemy steps on wood, mud or stone, but you even can determine his weaponry just by listening to the reload sound he makes behind cover. Every gun and every monster has its specific sounds that can be distinguished after only a few rounds. I wish every game would celebrate good audio as much as Hunt!
    There were some big issues with server stability and bugs after the last patch, but at least for me these issues have been resolved and now the game runs fine and the FPS is also quite ok, considering that it looks just beautiful. It runs at 65-90 fps with most settings on max on 1440p with my i5 9600k @ 4,7 Ghz + RTX2070 non-super.

    In summary, this is the best game of 2019 so far for me. It is definitely worth the 40-50€ and a must buy if you favour tactical / teambased play over fast-paced gameplay.
    I hope that the playerbase grows (afaik numbers went down after the last patch fiasko), so please buy this game!
    And to the developers: Awesome game! Please add more content in the near future to attract new players and keep the old ones! (However, ensure that your patches run fine before releasing it!)    … Expand

If you are looking for an online shooter that retains the tension of survival horror, and rewards careful tactical play (not just “run around and shoot good”) then I can’t recommend Hunt enough. It gives me frequent panic attacks but that’s why I love it ;)… Expand

    HIGH RISK, HIGH REWARD, they say in the description. And its true. The game is so intense, you sweat and freeze while your trying to get the bounty from the boss, or other people. I like the choice of year, the end of the 1800's. The game is best with friends.

The eldritch, lower-case L lovecraftian environment and tone exists nowhere else in games. Gunfights will often be protracted, clenched-teeth affairs as each team attempts to sniff out the moves of the other, hidden in some sprawling lumber yard or slaughterhouse (among many other ruined and cursed rural outposts) or near-terrifying exchanges in the bayou, where every noise can attract the awful hosts of AI that stalk the zones. P v P v E v Boss v Your ever-increasing hypertension and derangement make for an incredible experience.

    The environments and graphics are phenomenal. The level is the best looking and most immersive I have played in any multiplayer video game.

    Progression system is interesting, rewarding skilled players. The weapons are all useful and interesting, with nothing trashy. It would be nice if you could pickup items from dead players though.

    There have been some small technical issues, one 'freeze' of the game requiring sign out of windows, and FPS is about 45 with my 1070. Given the slower pace of combat, this is not really a problem, and a fair tradeoff given how beautiful the environments are. Given the bargain price of $30 during Early Access, I'm willing to accept some roughness.

    Highly recommended.    … Expand

    Hunt: Showdown has a level of complexity that surpasses many other titles, allowing it to excel in areas such as tactics and gunplay.

    A great cooperative shooter that lacks only in matchmaking balance and its slow pace. [Issue#302]

    Hunt: Showdown is a great blend of battle royale and survival horror; one that is an enjoyable, but also unbelievably tense, and merciless gaming experience. Apart from being quite rough around the edges, its unrelenting nature (courtesy of its surprisingly cruel permadeath mechanic), and almost awful matchmaking logic, make this a game for only a few - a few who must put hundreds of work on it, if they don't won't to spend most of their time staring at the words "You're Dead!"
