Greetings Hunters! One of the more common feedback items we receive is about the tracking process and how it feels a bit... rudimentary. Previously, you would just find a bone pile, interact with it and that would show you which direction to walk in. It was functional but it was never really particularly interesting. We've actually gone through a number of iterations for tracking, and while the…
Greetings Hunters! In this update we wanted to focus on improving the replayability of the game by changing up the mission parameters each time you load into a hunt. The levels are already procedurally generated, meaning their layout changes each time you play, but we also wanted to mix up the gameplay by adding mutators. The world of Hunters, Inc. is constantly at risk from a malevolent corrup…

Greetings Hunters! As some of you know, the Berserker has been the only playable class for a while. Mainly, this is because we wanted to iterate on the core monster tracking and fighting aspect of the game, and having fewer classes means it was easier for use to focus on and tune that experience. Essentially it removed a layer of complexity and allowed us to rule out class asymmetry and tuning…
Greetings Hunters! Earlier this month we moved from a closed to open alpha and opened the game up to thousands of new playtesters.

The two most common pieces of feedback we're around how it felt to contr…
