Developer Good Fun Corporation has announced HUNGER, a new player-versus-player-versus-environment horror shooter set in the aftermath of the Napoleonic wars.
HUNGER is set for a release sometime in 2025 for Windows PC (via both Steam and the Epic Games Store).
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its reveal trailer:
A sinister plague has befallen war-torn Europe, unleashing unspeakable horrors.
Step into heart-pounding darkness in HUNGER, a masterful blend of first-person shooter, slasher, RPG, and horror gameplay set in the desolate ruins of Napoleonic Europe – otherwise known as the World After the End. As a survivor among the Living, embark on a solitary journey or unite with allies in pairs or trios, navigating the perilous landscape haunted by monstrous beings spawned from the plague’s wrath – the Hunger.
Fortune and adventure awaits those brave or foolish enough to venture out from the safety of the Chateau into the World After the End.
FIND YOUR PLACE
In the unforgiving World After the End, your survival and prosperity are intertwined with the denizens of the Chateau – a broad array of quest givers, shopkeepers, stashkeepers, bounty hunters and other Living. Completing quests and building your reputation broadens your access to new locations, abilities, characters, weapons, gear, and vital resources.
INTENSE AND BRUTAL COMBAT
Deliver fire with a rifle or pistol, or lob explosive glass grenades with an experimental hand mortar. When the ammunition runs dry or the gap is closing too fast to reload, draw your axe or mace to enter lethal hand-to-hand combat. HUNGER is built upon a mix of methodical and frenetic ranged and melee combat as you enter a deadly and brutal dance with both the Hunger and other Living who seek to take what is yours. Find and equip armor, bags, trinkets, medicines, weapons, and shields to ready yourself for the different environments and battles ahead.
PROGRESS AND BUILD
While much of your equipment and weaponry may be lost, all experience contributes to progressing your Living and their level. Each of the Living has a set of unlockable unique Passive, Tactical and Ultimate abilities, alongside deep and extremely customisable mastery trees with more than 100 talents to choose from. Build your Living for stealth and solo play by quieting your footsteps and lockpicking doors. Specialise for ranged combat by quickening your reload speed and increasing your weapon control. Sacrifice your lethality and support your party by repairing their armor and healing them. Survival is the only measure of success.
EXPLORE THE PLAGUE-TORN LANDSCAPE
Explore forests, villages, monasteries, citadels, mines and more as you and other Living attempt to explore and plunder the remains of the World After the End.
