Take down the five bosses and you'll loosen the grip of that gang on their respective area.Įach of the three bounty hunters at your disposal in Huntdown has a different primary weapon but all share the same move set, alongside the ability to pick up a ton of secondary weapons that they'll find strewn around the game's various battlegrounds.

Platforming, for the most part, takes a firm backseat to straight-up shooting as you mow your way through short, fast-paced levels stuffed full of roller-skating hockey thugs, leather-clad punks and bike-riding greasers wielding everything from iron bars to the very latest in futuristic automatic weaponry.Ĭhoosing from one of three bounty hunters – the zero-tolerance Anna Conda, cyborg John Sawyer or hard-boiled recon droid Mow Man, you (and a friend if you're blasting through the campaign in local co-op) receive your orders from the Wolf Mother, spokesperson for the Shimamoto Corporation, who'll provide you with intel on the whereabouts of five bosses for each of the gangs spread across the various areas of the city. The tone here is very much The Warriors, the gameplay a direct call-back to classics such as Contra, Metal Slug, Robocop and Renegade. Meaty gunfire rips through walls, splinters wood and tears human targets limb-from-limb in fantastically gory detail the game's glorious cyberpunk battlefields left a bloody mess of broken bodies and busted backdrops as your stone-cold bounty hunter shoots their way from contract to contract, taking down the bosses of various gangs as they wrestle back control from the vicious thugs and hooligans who have made every street corner and alleyway their home.Ĭaptured on Nintendo Switch (Handheld/Undocked)
Police are all but powerless – fighting desperately in the face of overwhelming odds – the public is in hiding and it's now down to hardcore bounty hunters with an insatiable hunger for cold-hard cash to wade into the bloody morass and take down the thugs that have turned the city into a smouldering warzone.Įasy Trigger Games' Huntdown is a retro side-scrolling arcade shooter that takes the 16-bit stylings of the classic run n' gun games it seeks to emulate and ramps up the graphical detail and wanton destruction beautifully. On the mayhem-filled streets of a hyper-violent future version of society, marauding criminal gangs have taken control.
