Predator: Hunting Grounds video game gets new trailer ahead of trial weekend

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

I'm not much of a gamer, but I love Friday the 13th: The Game, so I have been intrigued by the upcoming video game Predator: Hunting Grounds, since it has a similar asymmetrical multiplayer set-up:

One group of players will control members of an elite Fireteam: who pack state-of-the-art conventional firepower, from shotguns and SMGs to sniper rifles and more. One player will control the Predator: a stealthy, acrobatic killing machine bristling with exotic alien technology such as the infamous Plasmacaster.

As the Fireteam attempt to carry out paramilitary missions – annihilating bad guys and recovering important items – the Predator will be closing in, using its advanced vision mode to track and ambush its prey.

Although the game has an April 24th release date, the beta trial weekend begins tomorrow, March 27th. With gamers preparing to enter the Hunting Grounds this weekend, a trailer has been released online that shows what it's like to play as the Predator, and the types of Predator that are featured in the game. This trailer can be seen below.

Predator: Hunting Grounds will be available on PlayStation 4 and PC (through the Epic Games Store), and it looks very cool to me. I won't be able to participate in the trial weekend, but I might have to get this game next month.
