New Weapons Galore Available in Latest Update For ‘Hunt: Showdown’

Crytek’s Hunt: Showdown is getting some new goodies as part of its latest updates in the 1.7.2 patch. The update goes live on Steam today, with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One getting the patch on Thursday, February 3.

1.7.2 sees the return of the mysterious Mr Orwell Chary, who first appeared in the recent Winter Solstice event. Chary offers rewards for players 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.

New rewards are also being introduced for first-time daily extractions, including Hunter XP and Hunt Dollars, while a five-day successful extraction streak earns you Blood Bonds. New legendary content 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”.

Lastly, the patch includes new weapon variants, such as the 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.

And, seeing as it’s the Lunar New Year, you can celebrate with the Azure Arsenal DLC, which being released on February 1 on Steam, and February 8 on consoles. There will also be discounts on the base game and all the DLCs with an additional loyalty discount for previous Showdown owners until February 3rd.
