Hello Hunters,
This status update is quite packed with goodies, so grab your coffee, sit back and enjoy 😉
New semi-automatic shotgun and a new challenge
Tomorrow we’re releasing a weapon, which a lot of you have been eagerly waiting for – 20 GA semi-automatic shotgun. Since it has been a hot community topic literally for years, we’ve decided to do something special this time to celebrate the launch, so today we’re running a unique challenge, 5 lucky winners of which will get the new shotgun for free! Read the details and join here.
Please note that, for now, the new shotgun will be released with birdshot ammo only.
An eventful rest of the week
To pay tribute to the Olympic Games in Sochi, we’ve created our own version of the Olympics – theHunter Quadrennial Bird Games 2014, during which you’ll be able to put a new “semi-awesomatic” shotgun to test. The challenge will launch tomorrow, so keep an eye on our updates.
Another event we’ll be celebrating this week is February 23, which is the Men’s Day in Russia and other Russian speaking countries. We’ll be throwing a proper hunting party on that day, make sure to check the forums on Sunday for details.
Design theHunter Outfit – the voting starts today
We’ve received 30 submissions for the Design theHunter Outfit competition, and we were pleasantly surprised by the overall quality level, thanks to everyone who took their time to participate! The team put their heads together and picked 7 to go through to the final voting round. When choosing designs for voting we were taking into consideration a number of criteria: how well a specific outfit would fit into the theHunter world and gameplay, how much resources its incorporation would require, as well as the general idea and implementation.
