Hunt: Showdown is about to get a very special feature that has been frequently requested by its player base: roaming bosses. More specifically referred to as “Wild Targets” for the time being by the developers at Crytek, these are new boss creatures that will roam around the map, fight players, and give a bounty if you’re lucky and skilled enough to bring them down. Crytek has stated that these Wild Targets will be coming in an update set to launch in summer 2023.
The details on Wild Target bosses and much more were revealed in a recent Hunt: Showdown Developer Update video shared on the Hunt: Showdown YouTube channel. While much of the video served as a sort of roadmap for what players can expect from the game throughout 2023, including new maps, modes, and updates to the player experience, it was the New Boss section of the video that was cause for excitement. There, the Crytek devs shared the first details on Wild Targets and their upcoming launch in the summer update.
