Predator: Hunting Grounds Revealed by Friday 13th May

Today, PlayStation’s latest State of Play stream revealed Illfonic’s next big title, Predator: Hunting Grounds. As you probably know, this is the same developer behind Friday the 13th: The Game. The studio's new game is described as an asymmetrical multiplayer game, which basically means that you can be either the Predator or the team being hunted by it.

It’s worth noting the above reveal trailer doesn’t show any actual gameplay, so it remains to be seen what the in-game experience will look like for players. Perhaps this is but a smaller teaser that might lead us to a much bigger reveal at next month’s E3, which is taking place from June 11th to the 13th at the Los Angeles Convention Center.


Predator: Hunting Grounds is based on the popular film franchise of the same name and it is coming from IllFonic, the studio that brought us Friday the 13th: The Game . It follows the same gameplay mechanic where players take control of Jason Vorhees against and attempts to murder the human characters. In the Predator game, players can play co-op in a team of four against Predator or play as the alien hunter himself.

The teaser video doesn't show much. A four-man armed group is scouting a tropical forest with ancient remains and structures at a distance. Towards the end, Predator appears in his cloaked or invisible appearance making that menacing grunting noise that he loves.

As reported by Polygon, IllFonic chief executive Charles Bernhardt said that the human team will be packing a lot of firepower tasked with shooting up bad guys and recovering loot. Players picking Predator will have access to its special abilities including the cloaking mechanism and the iconic Plasmacaster. Predator will be always on the move trying to track and ambush the humans.

A more detailed gameplay explanation was posted on the PlayStation blog. It stated, "One group of players will control members of an elite Fireteam who pack state-of-the-art conventional firepower, from shotguns and SMGs to sniper rifles and more. Meanwhile, one player will control the Predator: a stealthy, acrobatic killing machine bristling with exotic alien technology such as the infamous Plasmacaster. As the Fireteam attempt to carry out paramilitary missions - annihilating bad guys and recovering important items - the Predator will be closing in, using its advanced vision mode to track and ambush its prey."

Generation Zero review - an atmospheric, open world

Image
Generation Zero  PC game  It is 1989 and executioner robots have attacked the Swedish wide open. This is the unquestionably one of a kind reason for Generation Zero, an open world shooter from Just Cause designer Avalanche. In any case, this is a littler generation than we're utilized to from the studio. The guide is gigantic, in light of the fact that Avalanche maps dependably are, however, the game itself is a shockingly lean undertaking. You play as one of a few senseless 1980s originals: punk, muscle head, geek, etc. You have a couple of free objectives including discovering why everybody is missing, finding survivors, and revealing reality behind the intrusion. In any case, you're never truly directed down one specific way. You can make your very own objectives and investigate at your very own pace, either alone or with three different players. Dispersed over the guide are towns, homesteads, dugouts, and increasingly outlandish areas including an army insta
