Brrrrap…
Do y’all rememberHuntdown?The cyberpunk shooter first made its presence known back in 2017, where it turned heads with its old-school-cool looks and ballistic action, but then things went a bit quiet for a couple of years. Well, it seems that shit’s on, as publisher Coffee Stain has announcedHuntdownwill finally launch on PC and consoles July 09, 2025.
Developed by indie outfit Easy Trigger Games,Huntdownpits one or two players as bounty hunters against a city full of dangerous gangs of perps, each individually themed in classicThe Warriorsstyle. Gameplay consists of frantic run ‘n’ gun action, with players forced to blitz from cover to cover, taking on all-comers with a heavy arsenal of weaponry, while prioritising targets and enemy movement patterns with second-to-second planning.
WhenI playedHuntdownway back in 2017,I found it a breathless andverychallenging arcade title, one that is quick to punish recklessness but packed with high-octane action. It’s been over two years since then, and it will be interesting to see what Easy Trigger has brought toHuntdown‘s wild gameplay in that time. I mean, the world could always use a newElevator Action Returns, right?
Huntdownlaunches on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (via Epic Games Store) on May 12.
