Crytek Announces HUNT: Horrors of the Gilded Age

Crytek today announced HUNT: Horrors of the Gilded Age, a new multiplayer experience on PC And consoles.

An all-new IP, HUNT is a third-person action game where up to four players band together to fend off an onslaught of bloodthirsty creatures and track down bosses. Featuring co-op gameplay, HUNT is the debut title from Crytek USA, and will be published by Crytek as part of their Games-as-a-Service range.

Set in the late 1800s, HUNT depicts a world where so-called myths and folklore actually point to the terrifying truth about evil lurking just beyond the fringes of day-to-day life. Players act as hunters willing to take up arms and risk their necks by venturing into the deadliest of territories and facing the hideous creatures that have overrun them.

HUNT: Horrors of the Gilded Age is scheduled to enter Closed Beta testing on PC later this year, and players can sign up for a chance to experience the game first at http://www.huntthegame.com.
