Hunt: Showdown is getting its latest raft of updates as part of the 1.7.2 patch, which goes live for PC today, and on Thursday 3 February for consoles.
The mysterious Mr Orwell Chary – who first appeared in the recent Winter Solstice event – is making a return, offering players rewards in exchange for different amounts of Bloodline XP every day as part of the new Dark Tribute feature. Possible rewards include an exclusive Legendary Hunter – “Bad Hand” – and other Legendary items.
A host of new rewards are also being introduced for first-time daily extractions, including Hunter XP and Hunt Dollars, while Blood Bonds will be available for successful extractions five days in a row.
Legendary content being introduced with the patch includes the Flare Pistol “Death’s Beacon”, the Romero 77 Talon “Maelstrom”, the Winfield M1873 Musket Bayonet “Patre”, and the Bornheim No. 3 Match “Mockingbird”.
New weapon variants include a Scottfield Model 3 Spitfire, Scottfield Model 3 Precision, Scottfield Model 3 Swift, and a Berthier Mle 92 Deadeye. New custom Full Metal Jacket ammo is also being made available for Winfield and Winfield C variants.
