It’s time to go a-hunting, or be hunted, in Predator: Hunting Grounds, now confirmed for launch for 24 April 2020. Here’s a new trailer to go with the announcement from the latest State of Play:
Looks like there’ll be a female Predator who will be joining in the hunt! One fearless, swift and unstoppable hunter, she feels no fear, and certainly, lives for the hunt. She wields an IllFonic made weapon, the Yautja Bow: according to Jared Gerritzen, Project Lead and Game Designer at Zombie Studios. It’ll be dealing plenty of damage to an unfortunate victim, as well as being able to pin foes to surfaces on death, and of course, has access to the Predator arsenal.
As far as weapons go, the Predator seems to have quite alien technology. There’s those discs used in the trailer, then the Combistick for both close and long range battle. You can see the Predator blow up an NPC and lifting them into the air with the weapon!
Well apart from that, Predator: Hunting Grounds will allow players to customize their own Predator. Classes and methods of attack, weaknesses and strengths are all up to you. Go for the Hunter to be a balanced killer, a Scout for a speedy seeker, or a Berserker for sheer strength!
