Share:

Hunt: Showdown 1896's update 2.8 Road to Hell dropped today, and it's a structural overhaul disguised as a story event. The 26th Regiment showed up to clean house and got corrupted for their trouble, leaving behind Strongholds full of military loot and a caged boss target that broadcasts your location to every hunter in the match. That's the kind of risk-reward that changes how you approach a bounty.

The real meat here is the inventory rework. Weapons now have sizes 1-5 instead of the old small/medium/large system, tools and consumables aren't locked to specific slots anymore, and you can stack any combination of gear you want. It sounds like a small tweak until you realize it opens up loadout variety at every skill level, suddenly a cheap, punchy single-shot rifle like the new 1890 Cavalry becomes a legitimate companion weapon instead of dead weight. Quartermaster costs more now to balance it out, and a lot of secondary weapon tuning went in across the board.

New supply points (Medical and Military) are visible from the start, but you'll need to find Scout Maps to reveal everything else. Check the full notes for the complete arsenal changes and how the Maxim 1895, a hip-fired prototype that'll slow you down 25% and overheat if you're not careful, actually fits into this new system.

Full Patch Notes

Road to Hell

When two military scouts go missing while investigating the Corruption in Louisiana and Colorado, their concerned Commander decides to go after them. But his request for an official mission is declined, and instead he goes rogue and forms the 26th Regiment. With the financial backing of The Delegate, the 26th are indignant at the lack of official support, but certain they can find their comrades and clean up the alleged Corruption themselves. They are professionals: well-trained and well-armed.

Their first mistake is their arrogance. Their second is their optimism. The Corruption is like nothing they have encountered before. Beset by monsters on one side and enemy Hunters who don’t want outside involvement on the other, their arrogance is transformed into doubt and then twisted into madness as they all lose themselves to the Hunt.

New Event Location: Strongholds

The Stronghold is where the 26th Regiment had their last stand. Few survived the experience, and many who didn’t now wander the area, corrupted and transformed into mindless Grunts. Here you won’t just find Destiny's Dial, Sealed Rewards, and Tarot Cards—but some new and interesting secrets…

The Strongholds are large and have 3 main areas to them, the trenches, the camp are and the fortified building. The camp area has a big mess tent where you will find:

  • The Scout Map
  • Various Sealed Boons
  • Tarot Cards and more...

And in the Fortified Building you will find:

  • The Caged Boss Target
  • The Maxim 1895
  • The Sealed Explosives Box
  • Many ways to restock your ammo.

In addition, the military has dug in all across the maps with additional trenches and smaller checkpoints and campsites that can be discovered.

Caged Boss Target

The 26th Regiment tried to know their enemy. Originally, they captured this Boss Target with the intent of sawing it to size and sending it out for future study. But during the siege, the soldiers grew hungry, and Sgt. Riggins had a different idea.

These are Banishable Boss Targets that can be found at the Stronghold. On successfully Banishing them they drop 1 bounty token. Before banishing this target, it will have Boss Whispers active allowing you to detect nearby players. For the duration of the Road To Hell Event and Caged Boss Target will be guaranteed in every mission, there will be only 1 Normal Boss Target in these missions and a chance of a secondary Wild Target as well. Which means there can now be a maximum of 3 bounty sources in a match.

New Event Location: Medical Supply Point

  • New Themed Supply on the map with unique loot
  • Players can find the following at the Medical Supply Point:
  • Full Health Restoration Kit
  • Scout Map
  • Four Shot Boon
  • Random assortment of Shots
  • Chance of a Tarot Card
  • Consumable Medical Packs and more
  • The Medical Supply Point will be visible on the Map by default

    New Event Location: Military Supply Point

    Teased in the final weeks of update 2.7 we have the Military Supply Point that return in update 2.8.

    • Players can find the following at the Medical Supply Point:
    • A Sealed Scarce Weapon Box
    • Scout Map
    • Sealed Full Ammo and Tools Restock Box
    • Guaranteed un-sealed Catalyst Trait Spur
    • An assortment of ammo and tool boxes
  • The Military Supply Point will be visible on the Map by default

    Hidden Information Changes

    With 2.8 we want to bring back the scouting mechanics we introduced in 2.7 but with some changes to address the community's feedback.

    • Scout Towers have been removed for 2.8, instead at the start of the mission the Stronghold, Medical Supply and Military Supply will all be visible at the start of the round. Other supply points and Extracts will be hidden.
    • These 3 locations have the Scout Map located in them, interacting with this map reveals all the hidden locations.
    • The Scout Map does not reveal the Wild Targets anymore.
    • Banishing Targets, picking up Bounty and using The Chariot card still reveals all Extracts.

    Maxim 1895 - New World weapon

    The Maxim is a new world weapon which can only be found at The Road to Hell event Stronghold, each containing only one due to limited numbers of the prototype weapons. Previously used as a mounted gun, this version has been ripped off the mount and had some makeshift adjustments allowing it to be used from the hip. To accommodate the makeshift portability, ammo bags have been affixed to the sides so that a limited amount of ammo can be carried with the gun.

    • As a world weapon it cannot be extracted or carried in hunter's inventories, instead it acts like current Shovels and Lanterns etc do.
    • Even if taken to an extract, it will be left behind.
    • Due to its makeshift usage, it’s quite cumbersome and will slow hunters down by 25% when equipped.
    • Being fired from the hip means that there is a large spread, aiming will reduce the spread slightly but is still not accurate.
    • Due to poor cooling following its prototype nature, it can overheat under extended fire causing a malfunction which needs to be cleared manually, best to keep the fire rate low to avoid stoppages.
    • It has 50 incendiary rounds by default but cannot be resupplied.

    Inventory Slot Rework

    With update 2.8, we are launching an inventory rework that aims to open new possibilities, promote loadout diversity at all skill levels, and give more weapons unique, viable niches.

    • Weapons are assigned a size from 1 to 5, as opposed to the previous (small, medium, large range).
    • The player's default weapon capacity is 5 and can be extended to 6 with Quartermaster.
    • Tools and consumables are no longer restricted by type. Players can freely equip any tool or consumable to any slot, in any combination.
    • Consumables are restricted to 4 instances of the same type (Throwables, Placeables, Shots and Tarot Cards)

    Other Changes

    • Toolboxes no longer supply consumables and only resupply used tools.
    • New filter options have been added to the arsenal menu to help sort for the different weapon sizes, tools, consumables as well as category filters for Throwables, Placeables, Shots and Tarot Cards. These have (for now) replaced some of the previous more granular filters for specific damage types for the sake of a better overview.
    • A lot of secondary balancing went in across the full arsenal to make weapons, tool and consumables fit their new categories. Certain traits, like Quartermaster have also been increased in cost.
    • You can find the full list further below.

    Dev note: With this rework weapons that are equipped on already existing hunters and would no longer fit due to the slot size changes will be unequipped and placed into your arsenal. This also counts for contraband items, even if the contraband limit will be exceeded by this you will not lose your collected weapons.

    New Weapon: 1890 Cavalry

    Carbine version of the standard military rifle of the US Army until the introduction of the Krag. This lightweight version was mostly used by Cavalry and rear-echelon troops, while still packing the punch of a long ammo black powder cartridge. Cheap and readily available, the 1890 model upgrade offers improved sights and handling since it was first introduced in 1873.

    • Added 1890 Cavalry, a Size 3, single-shot Long ammo rifle. Compatible with Fast Fingers.
    • 1/18 Ammo Reserve
    • 139 damage
    • 380 m/s muzzle velocity
    • CATs: FMJ & High Velocity
    • Dev note: The weapon does not look like much at first glance, but once its role within the wider Inventory Slot Rework is better understood, the advantage of a punchy and cheap single-shot long ammo rifle at size 3 becomes a lot clearer. The 1890 Cavalry is a great companion weapon for some of the more diverse and affordable loadout choices we want to encourage with this system work. In addition, it is a very good thematic fit for the increased military presence in Road to Hell, where a lot of the service rifles the military brought along, would naturally end up in the hands of Hunters.

    New Free Story Challenge: ‘Let the Gunshots Ring’

    With update 2.8 we are introducing a brand new and free Story Challenge to the game: ‘Let the Gunshots Ring’. Designed with a focus on player onboarding, players follow in the steps of John Victor, a well-seasoned Hunter who is ready to show them the ropes. As they are guided through the Story’s Chapters and Challenges, players learn more about and deepen their knowledge of the game’s core gameplay and mechanics all the while earning valuable rewards for free.

    “Life is cheap, and sometimes the only way to learn is the hard way.”

    - John Victor

    Structure Overview

    • Chapters: 4
    • Chapter Rewards: 4
    • Chapter 1 - Vanguard (Pax Skin)
    • Chapter 2 - Hedera Mortiferum (Conversion Chain Pistol Skin)
    • Chapter 3 - Bear’s Tooth (Mosin-Nagant Skin)
    • Chapter 4 - Initiate (Player Title)

    Gunplay

    Weapons

    • Updated the following Long ammo rifles to now use Special Long ammo instead:
    • Mosin-Nagant and Mosin Obrez variants
    • Krag
    • Lebel
    • Berthier
  • Special Long ammo weapons share ammunition with one another, but cannot resupply or benefit from standard Long ammo reserve ammo pools
  • Special Long ammo can only be resupplied from Special Ammo crates, Ammo Box consumables or Full restock boxes.
  • Updated the icon for standard Long ammo to help differentiate between the new ammo type.

    Dev note: Alongside the Inventory Slot Rework, we are taking the opportunity to make significant balance changes to existing weapons to redefine their role and performance in the new weapon economy. Special long ammo weapons will continue to be among the best items in the arsenal, but with new constraints requiring adaptation and extra precision.

    • The following ammo types have been made scarce:
    • All Dumdum ammo
    • All Explosive ammo (includes frag arrows, explosive bolts and waxed frag charges)
    • All Spitzer ammo
  • All but 3 instances of the above ammo types have been removed from players’ inventories, and their purchase price refunded.
  • Dolch FMJ ammo, previously scarce, has now been retired. All instances in players’ inventories have been refunded.

    Dev note: With update 2.8 we are approaching Scarcity differently, targeting high-value ammo types by category. As part of this effort, Dolch FMJ stood out as an exception that we wanted to resolve for consistency. We also want the new scarcity to mean more across the board, therefore we decided a reset of the current inventory for all players allows for a clean slate.

    • Extra ammo pools for a number of weapons have been updated based on inventory slot rework changes:
    • Weapons being updated to 3 size losing extra ammo in exchange for increased flexibility:
    • Berthier: reduced extra ammo from 3/18 to 3/12
    • Vetterli: reduced extra ammo from 6+1/20 to 6+1/16
    • Frontier 73C: reduced extra ammo from 7+1/28 to 7+1/21
    • Smaller variants & weapon families lose extra ammo capacity:
    • Mosin Obrez: Reduced extra ammo from 5/10 to 5/7
    • Springfield 1866 compact variants: reduced extra ammo from 1/24 to 1/20
    • Drilling compact variants: reduced extra ammo from 2/20 to 2/16
    • Centennial Shorty: reduced extra ammo from 9+1/12 to 9+1/9
    • Vandal 73C: reduced extra ammo from 6+1/28 to 6+1/18
  • Weapons gaining extra ammo capacity alongside a size change, or now competing with different weapons:
    • Uppercut: increased extra ammo from 6/9 to 6/12 and to 6/18 on Precision variants
    • Nitro Express: increased extra ammo from 2/4 to 2/6
    • Auto-4: Increased spread to from 57 to 65, reduced reserve ammo from 5 to 4
  • Officer Carbine: Slightly increased horizontal recoil
  • Hand crossbow:
    • Increased standard bolt’s damage from 195 to 205; in practice, results in 120 damage to the arm at close range instead of 112, and greater damage retention over distance.
    • Reduced Dragon Bolt’s impact damage from 17 to 11. Results in less initial charcoaling and more time to prevent burn
    • Reduced Dragon Bolt’s reserve ammo from 3 to 2
  • Reduced Mako muzzle velocity from 540 to a more accurate 440 for using black powder cartridges
  • Increased price of all Berthier variants by 50 Hunt Dollars
