Greetings Hunters!

In this update we wanted to focus on improving the replayability of the game by changing up the mission parameters each time you load into a hunt. The levels are already procedurally generated, meaning their layout changes each time you play, but we also wanted to mix up the gameplay by adding mutators.

The world of Hunters, Inc. is constantly at risk from a malevolent corrupting force. This force can effect anything in the game world; from big boss monsters to traps or even the world itself. When looking at missions on the map table you will see that some (not all) of the available missions have been exposed to this corruption.

Where does this corruption come from, and more importantly, how does it affect the guilds Q3 cash flow projections? Who knows!? That is the guild masters problem. Your problem is figuring out how to deal with this new menace!

As always, please let us know you think about this update here in the forums or over in our Discord Channel. Your feedback really helps us identify the areas that need improvment and what to work on next.

Here is a list of everything we have added in Update #10:
