After its initial release on PCs and consoles in 2020, the cult classic Huntdown has now brought its unique brand of chaotic bounty hunting action to mobile devices. The free demo lets players experience the gritty, fast-paced gunplay before purchasing the full game with zero ads or microtransactions.
CLEAN UP THE MEAN STREETS
Inspired by the bombastic action flicks and arcade titles of the 1980s, Huntdown casts players as one of three ruthless bounty hunters out to reclaim a crime-ridden metropolis from the grasp of anarchy and corruption. Like the heroes of those iconic retro movies and games, these mercenaries take the fight right to the heart of the criminal underworld with an arsenal of creative weaponry. Pixel-perfect 2D visuals rendered in beautifully detailed 16-bit graphics capture the look and feel of that era while bringing this violent, irreverent world to life.
CHOOSE YOUR WEAPON
Each playable character arrives locked and loaded with their own unique tools for doling out justice throughout the game’s 20 action-packed levels. Whether blasting through busy streets or seedy back-alleys, players leave a trail of pixelated bodies behind them. The stone-cold cyborg John Sawyer cuts a path with machine guns and pistols. Genetically engineered enforcer Mow Man makes full use of explosives as well as throwing stars, boomerangs, and tomahawks. Finally, special ops veteran Anna Conda leads the charge by combining athletic prowess with heavy firepower.
TAKE DOWN THE SYNDICATE
These lone operatives face nearly impossible odds, as the streets crawl with the ruthless foot soldiers and deadly lieutenants of four powerful crime families along with their hierarchy of lethal kingpins. The nonstop run-and-gun gameplay keeps the action frenzied with swarms of enemies attacking from all sides, forcing players to think and react quickly while using each level’s environments strategically. Dodging past missiles and explosions while taking down hundreds of unique foes, they’ll need skill, strategy, and firepower to dismantle this sprawling criminal network once and for all in a final confrontation with the deadly syndicate mastermind.
CARNAGE AND COMEDY
Beneath its ultra-violent exterior of guns, bombs, and buckets of pixel-art gore beats the humorous heart of an 80’s action spoof. Tongue-in-cheek humor and references punctuate the kinetic gameplay, with everything from the enemies’ exaggerated animations to the heroes’ cheesy one-liners selling the conceit. Unapologetically hyper and satirical, Huntdown’s commitment to recreating the style and sensibility of a beloved era elevates each chaotic criminal-hunting foray into an outlandish and endlessly appealing exploit.
