Hunt Showdown 1.81 Patch Notes (Update 1.12.1) – April 20, 2023

Wildcard Contract Experiment

In this release, the Wildcard Contract has undergone further adjustments as we plan to run them again and continue our experiment around separate contracts. Players who choose the Wildcard option will be placed on a random map and will only encounter single Boss Targets during nighttime. Furthermore, players will only have the option to play against trios to help streamline waiting times. In addition, the Wildcard Contract now offers an increased Bounty Bonus of 300 per extracted token!

Full details of the Wildcard Contract Experiment will be posted later today.

Bug Fixes
