    With the rise of the Hunt: Showdown fanbase and people discovering its unique genre, players are asking for more. They need more! Yet, Hunt hasn’t been pushing out new content as fast as the players are consuming it. In some cases, players may just want to take a break while transitioning into a different FPS genre. What is needed for these avid, horror FPS fans is a comprehensive list of games like Hunt Showdown. That’s what we hope to bring you today.

    Now, the Hunt: Showdown is an FPS Horror game that features zombie-like creatures and mobs. It combines that with the addition of bounties that can be referred to as bosses. Players have to kill these bosses while they are constantly being hunted by other players. Sometimes I even wonder who came up with an idea so crazy that it worked.

    So, with the slowly growing fanbase, Hunt players have been demanding more or players have been wanting to take a break from Hunt while playing similar games to keep their adrenaline rush. I’m sorry to say this but there aren’t that many games like Hunt: Showdown. But you guys are in luck because we have scoured the internet to find 11 awesome games like Hunt: Showdown. So, here are 11 other great FPS Horrors Games like Hunt: Showdown-

    11. SCUM

    SCUM is the type of game that aims to evolve the multiplayer open-world survival game. It brings unprecedented levels of character customization, control, and progression, where knowledge and skills are the ultimate weapons for long-term survival. Combining the methodical planning and management of hardcore survival with optional PVP events is available to every player at any time. SCUM tries to get that balance between complex simulation and intense action in the next generation of survival games. The game might not be the next Hunt: Showdown but it does come pretty close.

    10.PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds

    Many people might argue about PUBG being on this list as the game is very different than Hunt. It is also in another league than the hardcore players that Hunt players face. But truth be told, there aren’t that many games like Hunt. Hunt is a really unique game. Yet, PUBG features the battle royal aspect similar to Hunt. So, you can check it out and see if you like it or not. The game is an action-shooter massively multiplayer game developed by Bluehole.

    It came out in 2017 and had a huge player base at one point. But the game has died down after other games with unique aspects started appearing on the market. Still, PUBG will always be remembered as the game that set the founding pillars for all battle royal games. Check the game out, it is not that bad if you ignore the hackers now.

    9. Insurgency: Sandstorm

    Insurgency: Sandstorm is another perfect example of a game like Hunt: Showdown as it is a perfect blend of tactical first-person shooter and multiplayer features. The game was made by Focus Home Interactive and the game was released on multiple platforms. Sandstorm actually serves as a sequel to 2014’s Insurgency.

    The game takes place in an unknown middle eastern region where a war has been torn between two factions such as Security and Insurgents. Insurgency: Sandstorm is also a game like Hunt: Showdown. It features a minimal user interface with the lack of a visible health bar. This makes the game more immersive and challenging for players. It introduces the game mechanics to the players slowly as the players learn by failing and dying. But the game, in the end, is very tactical and realistic. That keeps players on edge and engaged for many hours. The main objective of the game is only to become the last man surviving. Sounds very similar to Hunt: Showdown, right?

    8. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl

    The S.T.A.L.K.E.R.2 is a game that is currently in development but is soon to be released unless it is delayed. But enthusiasts can pre-order it now to claim some freebies just like every other new game release. That all being said, the game trailer shows very similarities to Hunt: Showdown, and Escape From Tarkov. Whether you love those games or not, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.2 has a team-based multiplayer first-person shooter experience or an open-world sci-fi shooter game experience for the player base.

    The game has already gained a lot of fans because of its mixture of RPG, FPS, Post-apocalyptic, and Sci-fi elements. The graphics look amazing and players get to navigate the land from a first-person viewpoint. You can expect deadly monsters to fight you and mutated creatures to become a pain in your behind while you try to survive to be the master.

    7. Call of Duty: Warzone

    Though Call of Duty games don’t have the core essence of the Hunt: Showdown game but it still has some similarities that make it a very good candidate for Hunt players to try out. The game was released in 2020 and is a free-to-play, battle royale style, first-person shooter game created by Infinity Ward with the cooperation of Raven Software. It serves mainly as a part of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare franchise and it connects the story to Call of Duty Black Ops Cold war.

    But even if you haven’t played the other games, you can play Warzone as a stand-alone game with its amazing story and out-of-the-ordinary multiplayer. The COD: Warzone introduces players to three different modes called Plunder, Battle Royale, and Resurgence. The addition of a new currency system goes in the game’s favor. In fact, the majority of players seem to appreciate it. I’m sure Hunt: Showdown players would love to dip their toes into this Call of Duty game. For one thing, it will remind them of the hardcore opponents from Hunt.

    6. Metro Exodus

    Based on the FPS element, Metro Exodus is one of the best alternatives to the Hunt: Showdown. Yet, players neither team up with other players nor do they get to loot other players. The game is single-player. However, it does have that zombie apocalypse aspect of Hunt. It does not hold back on making the player base feel dread from a radioactive monster jumping into their face just like the dread they felt on Hunt. It offers a post-apocalyptic themed world and the story is non-linear; however, the atmosphere is closed to the sandbox. The game also has a dynamic weather system that increases the difficulty to survive and it also features a day-night cycle to challenge your all skills. If players are looking for games like Hunt: Showdown, then Metro Exodus might be the game for you.

    5. Remnant: From The Ashes

    Remnant: From The Ashes is a unique action role-playing third-person shooter game developed by Gunfire Games and Published by Perfect World Entertainment. The game was released on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Later on, they re-released the game on PS5 and Xbox Series X. The game has received amazing reviews upon release and it is very similar to the Hunt: Showdown.

    To better explain the game, imagine an FPS shooter that was made by the creators of dark souls. Yes, it is that hard. It borrows its mechanics from the Souls series but rather than simply being melee combat, it incorporates a their-person shooter element where the player can wield up to two gun weapons, with one being the main weapon and one sidearm alongside with the melee weapon. These weapons can vary between machine guns, shotguns, hunting rifles, sniper rifles, and players can also attach mods to them which give players extra abilities.

    Players can create their own custom characters and are challenged with enemies that can one-shot them. The game does follow a set story but I think most players would probably install the game and rush through the game shooting everything on sight. There are also trait points, which can be used to increase the stats of their created characters. Try out if you’re a hardcore Hunt: Showdown player.

    4. Rising Storm 2: Vietnam

    Unless you have been living under a rock, you should have heard of a game called Rising Storm 2: Vietnam. The game is the next in the series that had been PC Gamer’s Multiplayer Game of the Year. The game brought an era of automatic rifles, man-portable grenade launchers, and more modern weapon systems. Still gives us that authentic look and feel and realistic weapon handling that the series is known for.

    The game has already been updated many times and new players will get features like 64-player battles, 6 different armies to play where each character have different weapons and abilities, over 50 weapons that are all different and each unique, multiple aircraft, and more than 20 maps with multiple game modes.  The game does have its fair share of bug issues that every multiplayer game has but it is still a game that is very similar to the Hunt: Showdown game.

    3. Rust

    The only aim in Rust is to survive. The game is very competitive and everything wants you to die – the island’s wildlife and other inhabitants, the environment, other survivors. Do whatever it takes to last another night. Imagine Minecraft but on steroids and with guns.

    The game is in its 8th year and has now had over 300 content updates, with a guaranteed content patch every month. From regular balance fixes and improvements to AI and graphics updates to adding content like new maps, musical instruments, trains, and drones, as well as seasonal events, there is always something interesting or dangerous happening in Rust.

    Some unique features of Rust include players being able to host their own servers and with server-side modding supports, new enemies, new wildlife, new factions, new weapons, gestures, new vehicles and so much more. The game is definitely a great competitor to games like Hunt: Showdown.

    2. Squad

    The Squad is a tactical FPS that provides everything that other FPS games have been providing up till now just Squad does it on a larger scale. Squad provides players with 50 vs 50 battles with last man standing, combined arms combat, base building and so much more. I’m sure battle royals have become somewhat boring now but in Squad the players get to experience what realistic military simulation feels like with their conventional and unconventional factions against each other.

    The game claims to simulate authentic combat experiences utilizing a sense of being a part of something greater than yourself. Pick a side and become a member of a nine-man squad with your team to face off against 50 other hardcore players in a large combat environment. The game features multiple armies, weapons, maps, vehicles, and more. It doesn’t have the core of the Hunt: Showdown but it does have that fast pacing heart-throbbing action to make up for its lacking. 

    1. Escape From Tarkov

    Escape From Tarkov is an action adventure-based game with a hint of role-playing and multiplayer first-person shooter aspect. The game was developed by Battlestate Games and it is available only on PC, but gamers are eager to play it on other gaming platforms and consoles if it is ever released there. As the game starts, players will find themselves in a fictional land of the Norvinsk Region where a massive war has been torn between two private military companies called Bear and USEC.

    The matches you join during the game are called Raids; however, every player has the ultimate goal of becoming the last man standing in a battle royal style gameplay. The game is very similar to other battle royals and in that aspect, it is very similar to Hunt: Showdown. So, if you ever get bored of Hunt and want to jump into some other FPS shooter, you can always come to Escape From Tarkov.

    In conclusion, Hunt: Showdown is a unique game in itself and no other game can actually mimic that exact feeling that Hunt brings to the table but these games that we presented today are unique in their own way and they bring different views to the FPS genre. So why not try each game and feel which ones work for you and which don’t. In the end you can always come back to Hunt: Showdown for that one more match.
