Hunt: Showdown 1896 Developer Hints at Upcoming Event

With Hunt: Showdown 1896’s latest event, Garden of the Witch, now concluded, many players (myself included) are eagerly awaiting what Crytek has in store next. Fortunately, in a recent social media interaction, one of the developers dropped a subtle hint suggesting we might not be waiting much longer. Let’s dive into the details below.

Hunt: Showdown 1896 Developer Hints at Upcoming Event

At the time of writing, Hunt: Showdown 1896 is between events, and no new event has been officially announced or teased just yet—but that might be about to change. In a recent thread on the Hunt: Showdown subreddit titled “When’s the next event announcement?”, a developer jumped into the conversation and gave us a small glimmer of hope that something is indeed on the horizon.

Responding to the thread, the developer said: “We haven’t released any date regarding what might be next for Hunt. Please keep an eye on our social media as we might be releasing some teasers.”

While this doesn’t confirm when the next event will be released, it does suggest that a teaser—or at least some sort of update—is coming soon. Some players believe the teasing may have already started. Observant fans noticed a subtle new detail in Hunt: Showdown’s current social media banner that could be hinting at what’s to come.

Of course, most of this is still speculation, but it lines up with the developer’s advice to keep watching their socials closely. We know that the team at Crytek is currently working on more fundamental, under-the-hood improvements to Hunt: Showdown and its new 1896 experience, but we’re confident the next event will be well worth the wait—and potentially even more content-rich than Garden of the Witch.

For now, all we can do is remain patient as the developers prepare the next chapter in Hunt: Showdown 1896. Stay sharp, hunters.
