Hunt Together In Multiplayer - Out Now!
Hello Hunters!
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
Gather your hunting buddies because the multiplayer is here! Experience the thrill of a hunt with up to 6 players and strategize together to bag the biggest trophies. The update also adds a new animal, Roe Deer. This medium sized deer is one of the most commonly hunted deer species in Europe.
Take on randomized hunting challenges that can be found outside the outposts. These challenges are randomly generated to offer a new way to approach each hunt and give players objectives to complete! Explore the map to find new campsites that can offer valuable information about the surrounding animals to trophy hunters.
