Hunt Showdown

Crytek’s Hunt: Showdown has gained itself a dedicated player base for its unique PvP gameplay, and the developers have ensured to keep the gameplay fresh with periodic updates and new content. However, just like any other game out there, there are bound to be unintentional exploits that creep in, and Hunt: Showdown is no different.

Crytek recently took to Twitter via the game’s official account to confirm that they have detected an exploit bug in the game that rewards players with unearned kills after completing matches. The bug is being looked into and actively worked on by the developers, with the un-earned kills on a player’s profile getting reset ASAP.

Furthermore, the developers also warn players that exploiting the bug intentionally will result in either a temporary or permanent ban of player accounts, which will be decided on a case-by-case basis. We will keep you posted if any new developments occur on this front, so stay tuned.
