    Predator Hunting Grounds is a flawed yet incredibly fun & addictive Asymmetric Multiplayer game. As a word of warning beforehand, on lower end PCs & Base PS4s it may run poorly in places, including frame drops & the like, on higher end PCs & PS4 Pros the overall experience on a technical level is much improved.

As a word of warning beforehand, on lower end PCs & Base PS4s it may run poorly in places, including frame drops & the like, on higher end PCs & PS4 Pros the overall experience on a technical level is much improved.

    But past all that is perhaps one of the best, if not the best Asymmetric Multiplayer experiences you can currently find on the market, with incredibly fun & arcade-y Fireteam gameplay that feels much more casual & fun oriented than some contemporary FPS works like the COD franchise, and is MUCH improved with buddies I might add, playing as the Humans in this will have you chuckling away as you relive classic Predator moments from the human perspective & of course often attempt to get to the choppa whilst fighting against an agile, technologically advanced hunter from the stars...

    Which brings us to the Predator. The REAL meat of the game. This is where the game truly shines, playing as the Predator themselves, with perhaps the most fun movement & combat the titular alien hunter has ever had on a video game front. You are agile, stealthy, hard-hitting yet still all so vulnerable and you WILL be cut down like swiss cheese if caught or rushing head on against superior numbers & overwhelming firepower, which the Fireteam humans possess & more. Playing as the Predator takes the game from a simple, arcade-y yet reliably fun FPS with an Asymmetric twist as the humans to a tactical game of cat & mouse where both sides possess great strengths & heavy weaknesses of their own. If you are picking this game up at all, and certainly if you lack the buddies to play Fireteam with, you MUST try out being the Pred first & foremost.

    It should also be noted that the Free Update & DLC support has been exceptional, with very cheap & fun DLC characters released periodically since launch and a HEAP of new weapons & gear for both sides added in alongside constant balancing adjustments to keep the game fresh, and there is more on the way which certainly looks promising and will continue to help the initial lack of content the game suffered from at Launch. The game deserves to be supported & allowed to grow, especially if you are a Predator fan. I certainly got my money worth out of it at least.

    So in the end to sum it up. A flawed but ultimately fun & addictive game that has received great support both free & paid from its developers since Launch and has a heap of potential yet to be reaped. Nothing new or groundbreaking, not the best game you'll play this year, but a game with a lot of heart & ambition behind it and one that can be fun to pop in whenever.    … Expand

    If i manage to connect to my friends, the game will just crash. It just doesnt work on a console. And the fact that i paid for this like its a new console game is just a slap in the face. Psn is losing dedicated fans over this one

    You have to pay for more powerful Predators.
    Game has still many bugs.
    Many illogical or broken system like the boar system that help the predator heal. Game is unbalanced, and no ranked mode so every game feels unbalanced. Very boring base mission and AI. Uninteresting. The resources collected in matches and XP are unrewarding. Only get on SALE and if you REALLY want to play a    You have to pay for more powerful Predators.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To shallow. I had high hopes for this game. But with the lack of variety for the fireteam (humans) and the disgusting matchmaking time of the predator, you'll spend more time complaining than enjoying the game. What a shame… Expand

    All around **** glitchy game. Waste of money. Only thing good is load out customization which will get reset after every game you play anyways.

    Неплохая сессионка, в который ты играешь за хищника против 4 людей, либо за солдата. Геймплей соответствует ожиданиям, но ничем особо не удивляет.

    Бесплатно по подписке играется бодренько, но отдельно покупать я бы не стал.    Неплохая сессионка, в который ты играешь за хищника против 4 людей, либо за солдата. Геймплей соответствует ожиданиям, но ничем особо не удивляет.

    Not the worst multiplayer game ever, however it struggles with a few things. Matchmaking is poor and in game has plenty of glitches and bugs. Limited on maps and grounds. While hunts and clashes are fun, fast and violent they're is plenty to customise in regards classes and the Predators look very cool and intimidating. Good time killer and just have fun.

    Bland and forgettable after a while. It's a shame this game wasn't as good as it should have been.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Game had potential…but the developers (Illfonic) don’t give a crap about the franchise or this game. Before it became completely broken, I would have given this game a 10. But after the September/October 2021 update…it just went downhill from there. Constant game crashes. Glitches. All sorts of bad stuff that is claimed “fixable” but was never fixed. Mind, this is after months and months of Illfonic saying that they would fix the game, but no. They apparently have better things to do, such as Ghostbusters (which I assume is a terrible game.) but now into the balance and content. Sure, it’s kind of exciting, but there are 9 Predator DLCs compared to 3 fireteam ones. That’s just dumb. And anyone who plays this game will say without a doubt that the game is Fireteam-based. It just is. 7/10 matches, the fireteam will either force a self destruct, escape, or secure the Predator’s dead body. It’s just dumb and overpowered. Meanwhile the Predator itself is incredibly weak and requires a ton of skill to win with, even with the tanks classes such as Mr. Black, Viking, and Berserker. And the scout builds you can just shoot once and they are down. It’s really stupid. I had really high hopes for this game, but now? I don’t think so. Just threw the disk in the garbage can. My advice: don’t waste your money on this game or the company that made it. They don’t deserve it.… Expand

    Predator: Hunting Grounds a title that has a lot of potential to grow, but to this day it remains a duty and presents us with a fun but at times very repetitive proposal.

    Predator: Hunting Grounds is difficult to advise even the most loyal fans of the franchise. The game is not worth your time, even if it will be distributed on a PS Plus subscription or sold at a huge discount. It is almost impossible to get pleasure here. Terrible graphics, unbalanced gameplay, poorly developed mechanics and broken matchmaking leave only a deep sense of frustration.

    There are no surprises here. If you are looking for a hail of lead, you will find a drizzle at most. Plus inexplicable performance issues on the console. [07/2020, p.68]
