Control schemes aren’t out of the ordinary. Experienced gamers will get a hang of the schemes in no time. There will only be select times where it may go easy-peasy for you.

This will challenge you and the way you strategize. Another hurdle is the non-automatic ammo reloading, which may get tricky for newbies. It’s also often said that some players feel like their ammo use is restricted. You do have to be frugal or at the very least, accurate with your shots in this game. However, the game still provides wiggle room by making other weapons competitive enough to be used for kills. Wield a knife, throw a bomb, or engage in melee when you find yourself in a pickle. The graphics and music will certainly stir plenty of reactions out of you. It gets scary and eerie. Plus, the graphics are seriously good, too. It’s enough for you to catch yourself in awe of the game’s look and gameplay. It's heavy on detail as it is as heavy on strategy.Are you ready?

Resident Evil 2 is one of the games that are similar to Hunt: Showdown. It’s a classic title in the horror and survival genre. However, you’ll get to play two different campaigns there—as either of the two main characters, Leon and Claire.
