Hunt: Showdown has received a major update aimed at revamping its daily and weekly challenge system among many other changes. Hunt: Showdown players have plenty of new challenges to look forward to as they test out the newly added weapons and enemy types.

Released in August 2019, Hunt: Showdown saw favorable reviews from fans and critics thanks to its unique and thrilling multiplayer gameplay. Taking place in 1895, the game tasks players, or hunters, with tracking and killing their target monster and retrieving a bounty while scavenging the map for gear that will help get the job done. The threat doesn't end there, however, as other hunters will be competing to claim the bounty for themselves by any means necessary. Hunters need to survive long enough to reach the extraction point or risk dying and losing their hard-earned gear in this battle royale-style PvPvE showdown in the Louisiana Bayou.
