Hunt Showdown is a first-person, competitive shooter, both developed and published by Crytek.
Set during the late 1890s, just as the Wild West is disappearing, and the modern age looming, players are thrust into the roles of bounty hunters, their main task is to kill a legendary monster, and escape via certain exfiltration points on the map, in order to complete their bounty.
Players, working alone or in pairs, are required to dodge other players, undead people, and environmental traps, all while using their Dark Sight ability, in order to find clues about their bounty. Once found, and killed, they must banish their bounty back to hell, defending it in the meantime from other bounty hunters, whom main task at that point is to kill those players and claim the bounty as their own. Those who manage to banish the bounty successfully must escape, in order to win.
Players can go into matches with a set arsenal of weaponry and gadgets, to compliant their play style and desired tactics. Each player bounty hunter is unique, in the sense that they earn experience and level up by surviving, allowing them to brandish better equipment and weaponry. However, dying in a match with said bounty hunter means losing them permanently, and as such, players are faced with the choice of taking their best hunters, thus increasing their chances of winning, while also facing the chance of losing them.
While the game is considered a “Battle-Royale” in a sense, its unique settings and gameplay looks differentiate it from all others. One such example is audio, where the game uses Binaural Audio, which allows for directional hearing, allowing players not only to recognize if sounds are coming from their left or right, but front or back, above or below. Players are not only advised to use audio in game well, but the best players know to listen to audio queues from the environment, and set up traps as well.
The game features two game-modes, Bounty Hunter, and Quickplay, which is more akin to the usual Battle Royale format, in which players are tasked with activating areas on the map, while fending off attacks.

DrFajitas Review -
I've personally played the campaign for Titanfall 2 and it is phenomenal. It is hands down one of the best single player campaigns I've ever played and the game play just feels so good. It's not your typical follow orders to achieve success, you basically do what you want to get the objective done and I like that. The combat system is amazing along with the mechanics of the titans, Titanfall 2 is one of my favorite releases in the last five years and I strongly encourage you to check it out, especially since it's on sale currently.
