Hunt: Showdown 1896 is a first-person shooter video game by Crytek. It was launched on Steam in early access on 22 February 2018 and for Xbox Game Preview on 29 May 2019.
Hunt: Showdown is a multiplayer first-person shooter with two gameplay modes. In "Bounty Hunt", the player plays as a bounty hunter who hunts down one or two of the game's 6 bosses to claim a bounty. Players can work on their own or with up to two other players to find clues about the monster's location in the four maps.[7] Each map functions as a medium-sized open world filled with other environmental dangers and enemies such as Grunts, Hives, or Armoreds.[8] As the player collects more clues, the location of the monster's lair is narrowed down. There are six boss monsters, including the Butcher, the Spider, the Assassin, the Scrapbeak, and two Wildcard targets, the Rotjaw and the Hellborne.[9] Players can use a variety of weapons ranging from shotguns and crossbows, to exotic elephant guns and rifles like the Mosin-Nagant, to defeat their enemies,[10] though the amount of ammo is scarce in this game, forcing players to rely on making their shots count.[11] They also have access to a large variety of tools such as traps and decoys.[12] Upon killing the monster, players will collect the bounty and need to survive until they can reach one of the extraction points. The locations of these exits are randomly placed on a map.[13] Collecting a bounty gives the player limited ability to see the approximate location of other nearby players, but also reveals the bounty-holder's location to all other players in the in-game map. Players can steal a bounty by killing a current bounty holder, which is a core strategic component of the game. Each match supports up to 12 players.[14]
The game's second mode, "Soul Survivor" (previously called Quickplay), is a battle royale mode that lasts for 15 minutes. In each match, the player starts with minimal equipment of their choice between a low-grade revolver, low-grade shotgun, or a low-grade melee weapon. The player is tasked with finding 4 Rifts in a map (similar to Clues in Bounty Hunt) and activating the Wellspring. As the player travels the map they can scavenge for better equipment and weapons to better arm themselves. The player who activates the fourth Rift first becomes the Wellspring Carrier and needs to defend themselves against enemy players and win by either being the last one standing or depleting the Wellspring for the required amount of time. The victor who survives can recruit their Soul Survivor with all their collected traits and equipment to be played in the Bounty Hunt mode.[
