Status Update

Howdy hunters,

Welcome to another status update!

Exclusive rifle with theHunter: Call of the Wild!

Today is a big day. Our younger brother, theHunter: Call of of the Wild has released into the wild (pun intended). If you’ve diligently followed the pre-release news announcements and streams, I’m sure you’re psyched to try it out. You can buy it on theHunter: Call of the Wild Steam store page.

To celebrate the new creation from the EW furnace, we’re running a promotion in both games. If you buy theHunter: Call of the Wild in the first three months after release you will receive this exclusive .270 Bolt Action Rifle “Call of the Wild” in theHunter: Classic. This rifle will never be released in our store and hence will have no achievements attached to it. theHunter: Call of the Wild is also offering unique rifle and Ghillie Suit for active and loyal theHunter: Classic players. You can find more details on how to participate in this promotion and redeem your rewards in both games on this page.

Valentine’s Event

In the meantime our Valentine’s event is well underway in its usual hearty fashion. We still have 4 days to go and the battle for the teddy bear trophies is wide open. If you are not a competitive soul, you might want to check out the missions for a special teddy bear collectable challenge and its reward (a Deployable Hunting Tower in bare wood).

We hope you’re enjoying heart$ hunting, teddy bear collecting, stocking up on bargains in the store and all the other stuff that makes this week in February special in theHunter.

New Website Features

Today we’re releasing a long-awaited function on our website and launcher. You can now delete images from your photo gallery! Not only that, we’ve also added a sharing function, which makes copying and sharing URLs of your trophy shots on the forum or elsewhere much easier (right in time for the upcoming Trophy Shot poses!). Give it a try and go crazy with all those weirdly shaped mooses and shameful kills that you’ve been longing to get rid of for years. Please bear in mind that deleting images is irreversible, so think twice before hitting that delete button.

Following your feedback to the friends list after the last game update, we’ve also improved its functionality with three small tweaks. You can now delete your friends from the friends tab on your profile (but please keep Doc there as he might feel lonely), we have tweaked the online status when you view someone else’s profile, and we have increased the limit of friends from 1000 (an old restriction from years ago) to 2000. If any of you are so popular that you have, or expect to have more than 2000 friends, please let us know!

One thing to note regarding the online status of friends is that there can be a short delay after a player logs in before you see them as being online. There can also be a long delay in them appearing offline after they log out. This can be attributed to people not logging out but just closing the launcher or website. We might try to tweak this again in the future but for now, try out the new features and let us know your feedback!

Ask Us Anything Replies

And finally, here is something bedtime reading for you all. The replies to Ask Us Anything with the theHunter: Classic team! Read on to learn about how the clothes camo works, our thoughts about the developmet stage of reserves in theHunter, and who is the most fun dev.

That’s it from us for today!

Happy hunting!
