Emote Games and Avalanche Studios have announced The Hunter, a free to play online hunting game that combines realistic hunting action with the community and functionality of a social networking site. Players can track and hunt a huge variety of animals from small varmints to big game. The Hunter is packed full of challenges, tournaments and competitions, allowing the gamer to work closely with other players to complete objectives while striving for that perfect shot and that record buck. The Hunter will hit Beta this Fall - the first three screenshots have been inserted in our gallery.
