Ghostface joining Crytek’s Hunt: Showdown 1896 last month was apparently just the start of big things for the PvPvE shooter. In what’s being touted as the shooter’s “biggest event to date,” 9x diamond-certified artist Post Malone will be the main attraction in a new event for Hunt: Showdown 1896 with Post Malone’s Murder Circus.
Post Malone’s Murder Circus invites players into a nightmarish world where a once-traveling carnival has been transformed by a mysterious artifact known as the HelioStone. Post Malone, who plays the role of the vengeance driven Deposed King, the former Ringmaster, brings his unique creative vision to the game’s gritty historical landscapes marred by Corruption.
Driven out by the HelioStone’s power, Post shadowed the Circus across the continent vowing to destroy HelioStone. Every time it manifests, he does his best to tear it down to the ground. Sometimes he recruits others – bounty hunters, desperadoes, and suchlike – to do it. Sometimes he takes on the task himself. But always the HelioStone eludes him, and so the chase continues.
The event also features a new monster in the form of orphaned bear cubs turned unnatural beast, Ursa Mortis. With deformed bodies and minds, twisted into savage hunger by the HelioStone, the monstrous bear that stalks the Circus grounds and will charge at Hunters and attack with a lethal roar.
The collaboration also introduces a series of themed hunter skins, weapon variants, enemies and more. Players are invited to experience a surreal carnival-inspired aesthetic that combines the game’s gritty historical setting and extraction shooter mechanics with the artist’s signature style.
No word yet on when Post Malone’s Murder Circus event will arrive for Hunt: Showdown 1896 players, but it will be “soon” on PC for Steam, Xbox Series and PlayStation 5.
