Happy Hunting!
Hunters,
The launch of Road to Hell is off to a great start! Our concurrent player numbers have climbed into the top three in Hunt's history, and it's been fantastic to see so many of you jumping into the action and exploring the new update.
With that, we wanted to take a moment to address some of the feedback we have seen online.
Custom Ammo Fix
Earlier today we deployed a zero-downtime update that resolved the issue with the Special Long Ammo, and the loadouts containing it, not appearing in your inventories. Everything should now be working as intended.
Balancing & Metas
We have seen plenty of lively discussions around balancing and the new metas forming in 2.8. We love it. It's exactly this kind of passion that makes the community what it is, and we want to reassure you that all of it is being read and digested by the team. Your opinions are being carefully considered, and we will be keeping a close eye on the conversation going forward as these new meta starts to settle. Keep it coming!
Points of Interest Spawn Density
A few of you have raised concerns that the new Points of Interest (Stronghold, Medical Supply, and Military Supply) can on rare occasions spawn too close together. Their placement is intentional and strategic, designed to drive higher engagement, but we understand the feedback. Some of the rules that drive our placement logic will also shift when the second possible Stronghold locations arrive in Chapter 2. We will be monitoring spawn locations and their impact on gameplay closely as well over the next few days before making any decisions on potential changes.
Custom Ammunition Changes
We couldn't help but notice some frustration around the removal of Dumdum and other Custom Ammo, along with the changes that come with it. We recognize this will cause a meta shift and have taken this step in response to player feedback on how these ammo types were driving a stale meta. We are genuinely excited to see what fresh loadouts the community will build in response, and we are weighing all of your opinions and match data for future development. This change creates a clean slate and a return to core Hunt gameplay, from which we can further build and tune while staying true to the spirit of the more tactical gunplay that makes us different from all the other shooters. Reminder that we’ve increased the Loadout limit from 15 to 30 with this update, so you have more room for experimentation.
Supply Crates
Lastly, some of you have mentioned that Supply Crates aren't quite what you expected. Without giving too much away, we have an exciting twist on how Supply Crates will be used in the game arriving with Chapter 2 in July—a small teaser of which is hidden on our roadmap graphic. Stay tuned!
As for our next immediate steps, tomorrow, June 11th at 09:30 CEST, we will be rolling out a zero-downtime update. The game will remain available throughout, but you will be prompted to install a quick update when it goes live. This update fixes a minor issue with the appearance of in-game news.
Thank you so much for your passion, feedback, and attention to detail.
Happy Hunting, Hunters.
The best event Hunt Showdown has ever had!
I genuinely can't remember the last time I had this much fun playing hunt showdown! Road to Hell changed the meta, added HUUUGE event compounds called "Strongholds" and much more!
Check out how crazy my first day of the event went!

42 years ago tonight, June 8, 1984, West Boylston native Donnie Beardsley (RIP 2015) seated at The Fours Boston(RIP 2020) before Game 5(“Heat Game”) of the 1984 Finals and delivered his now‑legendary prediction to the NBA Entertainment crew.
Later that night, a friend who worked at the Garden snuck Donnie and his buddy Dale inside. They camped out in the men’s room until the doors opened and the crowd started pouring in.

Today in 1987, with the Pistons up 107-106 and in possession of the ball in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Larry Bird steals the inbounds pass and hits Dennis Johnson for the game-winner. It remains a thing of absolute beauty.
