Review written after playing over 100 hours with update 1.0:

(New players: most recent negative reviews are written by frustrated tryhards who see the game in a fossilized way, not understanding that it must constantly evolve and attract new players. Don't be fooled by the nonsense comments about P2W or graphic downgrade - such things did not have place.
Hunt Showdown is now better than ever before and it's the best time to start playing it.)

Hunt Showdown is a fantastic multiplayer FPS game in which shooting skills are perfectly mixed with cunning and knowledge of your surroundings. The game has one of the most exciting PVP combat models on the market with a large admixture of PVE. It is unique and has found its niche of specific players focused on slower paced but exciting gameplay. The weapon shooting model is great, the audio is almost perfect. Fun is unmeasurable.

The only objections I have: the new UI which is hardly readable (although you can get used to it) and some changes regarding weapon statistics are not truly needed.

It is hard for me to assess the atmosphere of the game because after 1500 hours I do not pay much attention to it anymore, but I remember that at the beginning of playing, game was able to overwhelm me with its climate of threats and danger by both monsters and opponents.

Each round at Hunt is different and unique. After a year and a half playing, testing, frustration with some problems with early access, I must say that I am satisfied with the current state of the game and I invite new players to get lost in this game. At the beginning it will be difficult, you will die many times - sometimes by opponents, sometimes by your own mistakes, but When you manage to get off the map for the first time after a hard fight, you'll understand what Hunt is.
After all, everyone of us live to die another day.
