Hunt: Showdown Traitor's Moon event intros four new guns you can unlock early
There's a new event live over in the bayou in Hunt: Showdown. The Traitor's Moon event is just hitting the servers across the globe, and brings with it new «Orwellian» effigies to smash, clues to find, and legendary hunters and weapons.

These will be unlocked later on outside of the event, but if you hit the necessary event points you get to play with them early.
