With Cyber Hunter, developer NetEase aims to shake up the battle royale market on mobile. The game features shooter action combined with elements of survival and role-playing. And it also has cool sci-fi elements.
What is Cyber Hunter? Cyber Hunter is primarily a battle royale game in which 100 players are dropped onto a map and fight for survival. The last one standing on the 6×6 kilometer map wins.
To increase success rates, the game fills rounds with bots when needed, which are usually easy prey.
In Cyber Hunter, you experience this gameplay on mobile devices with Android or iOS operating systems. A PC version is planned for later, once the mobile version has established itself.
What is special about Cyber Hunter? Unlike PUBG or Fortnite, Cyber Hunter features a futuristic sci-fi setting. Therefore, you have lasers and other cool futuristic weapons.
Your characters, currently including the two cyber warriors Max and Zero, can collect up to 18 different skills in the game and erect barriers, become invisible, or set up towers.
You can customize your character in a detailed editor according to your wishes.
You can also modify your weapons significantly. For example, there’s a shotgun mod that turns your shotgun into a healing cannon. Aim at your teammates and give them a hefty dose of health.
Also cool: You are extremely mobile in Cyber Hunter. Similar to Apex Legends, you can climb surfaces and enjoy cool parkour elements in the game.
Additionally, there are futuristic vehicles. A sports car with a jet engine is still the most normal thing. Other vehicles transform into mechs or have huge wheels for crushing opponents. One vehicle even transforms into an airplane.
With these features and fast shooter gameplay, Cyber Hunter aims to make a mark in the highly competitive mobile battle royale market, dominated mainly by PUBG Mobile and Fortnite.
Cool detail: The soundtrack in the game is by Keichi Okabe, who also worked on Nier: Automata.
How much does Cyber Hunter cost? The game itself is available for free download and costs nothing to play. However, you can spend real money on cosmetic items through microtransactions in the game.
Is there crossplay? Unfortunately not, the iOS and Android versions are not compatible, and if you use both platforms, you will need to play and level separately.
Where can I get Cyber Hunter? If you want to try Cyber Hunter, you can download it at the following links in the Google Play Store or App Store.
What do players say? In the App Store and Google Play, players are mostly enthusiastic. The game has a rating of about 4.2 stars on both platforms. It is praised especially for its good graphics and fast gameplay. It is said to be “like Fortnite, but with more features.”
