Hunt: Showdown is getting a permanent price cut
Hunt: Showdown is one of the more successful extraction shooters currently around, with the Crytek-developed PvPvE shooter continuing to see support years on from its initial release back in 2019. In a surprising move, the team have announced that the game is set to get a permanent price cut, reducing its cost by up to 30%.
Making the announcement on their website, the team at Crytek revealed the upcoming price cut, saying: “Since its release, the price of Hunt has remained static to date and with the profound changes coming in the August launch, now is the right time to make adjustments.”
They continued, “Starting from 11th July on PC and from 15th August for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, the price for the base game will be reduced globally. For some regions prices will drop by as much as 30%, while other regions may see a smaller decrease.”
In a welcome move, the price reduction will also impact the game’s DLC, meaning total cost for all of the game’s content will likely be even more accessible moving forward.
The team concluded by saying “With our upcoming August launch, which includes a new engine, map, numerous quality-of-life improvements and more, we hope to see the Hunt continue for many more years to come. With that goal, means a responsibility for us to constantly adapt to the market as it grows and changes. We will be closely monitoring the impact of these changes on our players going forward and will continue to adjust the prices further in the future if necessary.”
While games go on sale all the time, it is surprising to see a title receive a permanent price cut – especially as the game itself was never full-priced to begin with. Hopefully this does allow for Hunt: Showdown to remain successful for many years to come.
