Crytek are thrilled to showcase an exclusive Q&A session featuring Diamond Certified artist and passionate gamer Post Malone. In the video, Post Malone sits down with Game Director Scott Lussier to discuss intense gameplay experiences, new traits and more as he teases his upcoming collaboration with the critically acclaimed game ‘Hunt: Showdown 1896’.
Known for his chart-topping music and growing reputation in the gaming community, Post Malone shares his genuine passion for ‘Hunt: Showdown 1896’, revealing how a casual recommendation from a close friend transformed into a serious gaming obsession.
“My buddy got me into it,” Post Malone said. “Whenever I’m on the road, and I can’t play, I’m always missing it. I’ve got probably about 400 hours on it.”
When discussing what it is about Hunt that attracted him to the game, Post continued: “I love how it’s based and grounded in reality. Very quick time to kill, you can body somebody in one shot. The guns are so sick. The skins are so sick. And I was like alright, I’m gonna give this a go. And then I used necro for the first time and I was like – this is the best game!”
In a truly original, first-of-its-kind partnership, Post Malone teases how players can join him for an all-new Hunt experience coming soon.
During the Q&A session, fans can take an intimate look into Post Malone’s gameplay style. The artist discusses his approach to the game’s high-stakes extraction shooter combat, shares personal strategies and memorable moments from his time in the Louisiana bayou and in the new Colorado map, Mammon’s Gulch.
