What makes Hunt: Showdown our favorite multiplayer shooter? Complexity, fidelity, an eerie setting, and great gunplay.
“The exquisite tension of the pervasive unknown,” is how general manager David Fifield describes Hunt: Showdown in a sentence.
“That tension is amplified by the time period. Weapons have these complex reload animations and period-accurate mechanisms,” Fifield explains. “I gotta make every shot count because if I run out of these bullets, it takes a long time to reload, it's clunky and I'm vulnerable.” It's the old technology that draws out every encounter and makes all sorts of weapons viable. Running at an enemy with an axe is a fair strategy when one miss will leave them open to a killing blow.
In almost all of these design decisions, what keeps me coming back to Hunt year after year is the way it arranges these threats, resources, and systems in the environment and steps back, giving players the agency to decide what to do with them. There's no artificial force pressuring players into confrontation, and your best performance of an evening might be three kills in a match. Maybe you survive against another team by the skin of your teeth and decide to call it a day.
It's absolutely a deliberate goal in our process,” Fifeld confirms. “When people look at a lot of media, if they don't see familiar faces or a thing that resonates, they'll say 'yeah, that's not for me.'" To Fifeld, inclusion is part of the game's narrative.
