Hunt: Showdown will add several new systems and a hefty amount of content in its upcoming 1.7.ii Update. At the pinnacle of the list are four new guns: Scottfield Spitfire, Scottfire Precision, Scottfield Swift, and Berthier MLE 1892 Deadeye. The Winfield line of rifles volition too receive a new custom ammo option — Full Metal Jacket — which functions similar the FMJ ammo on other weapons, increasing the rifle's constructive range and penetration at the cost of reduced projectile speed and ammo availability.

The new Scottfield variants mirror the Nagant family unit of weapons, in the sense that the Spitfire is similar to the Nagant Officer, and the Precision is similar to the Nagant Precision. Players who already utilise Nagants should feel right at home with the new Scottfield guns. For its part, the Swift is a baseline Scottfield that performs a full six-circular reload in the time information technology takes the base of operations variant to reload a single round. However, using this quick reload wastes all unfired rounds, and the Bulletgrubber talent does not preclude this loss. Finally, the Berthier Deadeye is merely a Berthier carbine with a Deadeye telescopic.

Update i.7.2. volition also come across a number of contentious Chase: Showdown items receive serious balance tweaks. The Hunting Bow will accept its baseline harm and effectiveness against sure AI buffed, all explosive weapons will deal higher friendly fire damage, and the Toxicant and Alert Traps have been redesigned to be significantly more constructive.
