Back in 2022 Way of the Hunter slowly crept out of the bushes and onto the scene, looking to take potshots at the genre leader; theHunter: Call of the Wild. It missed, but there were definitely signs that those shots would allow it to get closer with every step. Today those steps continue with the launch of Way of the Hunter’s Matariki Park DLC.
Available today across all formats in which you’ll find the Way of the Hunter base game – Xbox, PlayStation, PC – is the latest expansion for the game. And it’s the magic of New Zealand which awaits in Matariki Park. As well as a host of waterfalls and tranquil beaches.
