Hunters,
Update 2.3 and the Garden of the Witch event are now live! Below, you'll find all the details about the latest update and the event.
Happy hunting!

Garden of the Witch
Cursed nature and corrupted metal clash as new Hunters join the fray. The Bruja duo have seen their healing plants cursed and their cures fail as Corruption has poisoned the very soil. The Welders feel their minds altered and bent by the blood-soaked metal brought their way. Each fights the Corruption with their own strengths: the Brujas with organic mysticism, the Welders with industrial occult practices and fire.
Event-Exclusive Sealed Scarce Traits
Garden of the Witch introduces Event-exclusive Traits. These are selected from past Events and are only available by spending Pledge Marks in-Mission for the duration of the Event and will be removed once Garden of the Witch concludes. They have a chance of spawning where other Sealed Traits can spawn, and there will always be one that spawns randomly at the Rare ... Read more

Update 2.3 is almost here, bringing fresh content, balance tweaks, and important fixes!
Curious about what’s coming? Our Design Director, Dennis, walks you through all the details in the latest Developer Update video.
Hunters,
As part of Update 2.3, we’ve made a number of balance changes to equipment, Traits, and more. These changes were based on player feedback and were made to ensure gameplay was more balanced overall and that more diversity among games was encouraged. We’ve touched on the balance changes coming to Hunt in previous blogs, but we wanted to sum everything up so it’s clear what is coming in Update 2.3.
Check out the changes below!
Equipment Balances
  • The Krag will now have slightly reduced extra ammo capacity (from 12 to 10) and the cost will increase to 450 Hunt Dollars, which is to encourage more arsenal variety in games. These changes go hand-in-hand with a rebalance of the Berthier and Mosin Obrez and allows slotting the new Mosin Obrez Match and Sharpeye into the Long Ammo category. The Berthier will now be the strongest of the Carbines, while the base Obrez will be the weakest. We want to position these Carbines as more viable alternatives to the full-size, Long Ammo, bolt-ac...

Whispers of old magic stir in the bayou and the gulch, where the line between healing and hexing is dangerously thin.
Garden of the Witch is coming. Will you step inside?
A.Akamaihd sent us this beautiful screenshot of the bayou during a Sunset contract, with the fan-favorite Rancor legendary skin equipped! Thanks for sharing it! http://pbs.twimg.com/media/EaaE0C0XgAAAMNQ.jpg
With hide tough as armor and gruesome, rusty teeth, this Caldwell Rival 78 Handcannon’s bite is as fearsome as that of its namesake. Designed by 'Seven-D', a runner up in our 2nd-anniversary weapon skin contest. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/EaU7HhSWAAAMjL3.jpg

Did Verifying the game files fix the issue?

If not, could you both delete the file \game_hunt\textures-objects3-part4.pak and trigger a validation to redownload this file from Steam?

I would like to know if that solves the issues.

Btw. I think there have been 2 or 3 trailers featuring cats today - dogs seem to be „out“ (for now at least - will we witness their comeback in 2021?) #PS5Reveal
@PWNEDCAST Feel better soon!
Folks @SumoDigitalLtd the sackboy reveal came just in time as it helped me to convince my wife why to buy a PS5 🙂
„Sackboy - A big adventure“, „Horizon: Zero Dawn 2“ and „Kena: Bridge of Spirits“ are the highlights of today‘s #PS5Reveal for me.
Character and world design looks really stunning @emberlab! Looking forward to playing Kena: Bridge of Spirits soon!
