A new developer diary for Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish was unveiled during NACON Connect 2026. In the latest preview, Game Director Piotr Latocha dives into the title’s core vision, gameplay mechanics, and what players can expect from the upcoming experience.
Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish immerses players in a dark New York where vampires, werewolves, and other supernatural horrors lurk and scheme in the shadows. Players assume the role of a Hunter, or humans who have discovered the horrifying truth that monsters secretly rule our world and decided to track them down. Players customize their Hunter just like the tabletop RPG, and explore the city at their own pace, searching for clues and side quests that may give them an edge against enemies as powerful as they are dangerous.
To achieve their goal, Hunters must prepare and adapt their approach to each creature’s lair, whether through brute force, stealth, or cunning. With a wide range of ranged and melee weapons at their disposal, players can engage monsters in intense combat. Throughout the adventure, they join a cell of hunters and team up with five companions, each with their own story and unique personality, providing valuable support during hunts. Players can also build relationships with them and even pursue romances.
The game will be available on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC Steam in summer 2027. Keep it locked to Horror News Network for more on Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish.
