Predator: Hunting Grounds

Let’s just start with the spoilers and end any pretense that Predator Hunting Grounds anything more than a seven-out-of-ten type of game. But for me, it’s the best type of seven game. There was a time when a seven meant that a game was good fun instead of, what it seems to now mean, “unplayable”. These games had their flaws, they didn’t push the envelope on graphics or budget, but were still extremely fun to play and come back to.

Moment to moment, Predator: Hunting Grounds can either be a thrill ride or a tedious slog, but its dizzying highs should keep bringing you back for more

When it wants to imitate the 1987 movie, Predator: Hunting Grounds is a lot of fun, but doesn't really have anything past that

The year is 1987 and a new movie featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger has launched us all into a universe where we are not the hunters, but the hunted. A merciless enemy, dubbed a Predator, has come to Earth searching for a challenging hunt. Now we have the opportunity to take on the intergalactic traveler as a member of an elite Spec Ops team as you accomplish your mission in the Jungles of the South.

Predator: Hunting Grounds is an asynchronous online multiplayer game where you either play as the Predator -- or as part of a team that's trying to complete objectives while being hunted.

It seems to suffer from many of the same launch and ongoing issues that plagued Friday the 13th: The Game, but there's a silver lining here. Should the issues I lined out be addressed and improved with future updates, and additional maps and objectives rolled out over time, this could indeed be shaped into an exciting prospect. In its current state, however, it's best left to hardcore Predator fans insistent upon adding any related media to their collection.

Predator: Hunting Grounds has solid legs but repetitive objectives and poor balancing muddy what could have been a new take on asymmetrical multiplayer.

Predator: Hunting Grounds isn’t a terrible game. Not at all. But it’s just not good enough. The core of the game is decent, but it needs more maps, more interesting objectives when playing as the Fireteam, and simply more polish. On top of that, while playing as the Predator can be fun, you’ve got to be prepared to spend nearly half your time waiting on matchmaking, and then you could just find yourself running around a jungle like a headless chicken if the opposing Fireteam has its collective head screwed on. With a little bit of work and some additional content, Predator: Hunting Grounds cou...

Predator: Hunting Grounds' lack of variety and shallow gameplay make it difficult to stick with beyond a handful of rounds.

Playing as the Predator is a wonderful idea, it just deserves a better game around it. Bugs, mediocre first-person gameplay, repetitive missions, an ugly setting, and a reliance on playing with friends mean Predator Hunting Grounds is boring a lot more often than it is enjoyable.
