Overview
Description

Join a group of fierce combatants to repel a demonic invasion and close the gates of Hell in an intense story-driven campaign. Play solo or team up with 2‑4 friends in co‑op modes to master challenging missions and survive nightmarish arena battles.

Set in White Wolf's World of Darkness, Hunter: The Reckoning lets you choose from four distinct hunters—Deuce the biker, Father Cortez the chaplain, Kassandra the raver, and Samantha the ex‑cop—each with their own gritty backstory. Armed with axes, shotguns and other fearsome weapons, you fight relentless waves of monsters in fast‑paced, hack‑and‑slash combat. The game supports both solo play and split‑screen multiplayer, delivering intense cooperative action that captures the dark, horror‑filled atmosphere of the tabletop setting while offering arcade‑style thrills for up to two players on the same screen.
