Hunt: Showdown for consoles has been updated to version 1.3 and with the number change so too have things changed in the game! New enemy and weapon types are going to be available for players to try out and face off against. A new time of day is also available to give the map a new look. Even a new playable character is available in the form of the Redneck. But, what is probably the most exciting of all for console players is the addition of crossplay! Now players on PS4 and Xbox One will be able to team up using the Random Partner option. Unfortunately, the ability to play with your friends on other platforms still isn’t available yet but hey its a start! When playing crossplay, your current platform will be displayed next to your names to let you know what system you are playing with. Hunt: Showdown has been a pretty awesome game and I am glad to see Crytek continue to improve and build on it over time. This new crossplay addition has me even more excited about the game moving forward and it might be time to hop back in!

Are you excited about crossplay?
