Crytek just shared an interview and Q&A session with the musical artist Post Malone. Today's release is a video of that Q&A session between Malone and Hunt: Showdown 1896 game director Scott Lussier.
The two discuss everything from Malone's love of gaming, including Hunt, to some new traits that are coming. The two also tease an upcoming collaboration that will feature something Post Malone related in Hunt: Showdown 1896.
When (or if?) Post Malone appears in Hunt: Showdown 1896, this would mark the second such collaboration for Crytek. The first collaboration saw Ghost Face appear in Hunt: Showdown 1896 in late October 2024.
"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.

The Ballad of Post Malone
They say he came out of the Georgia hills, way up north near the Tennessee state line. Walked out of them woods with a guitar on his back and a dream, back in those wilder days.
He’d wander from town to town, singing songs with power in them, songs that called to the lonely and the desperate and the strange. Every town he went through, one or two or five of these misfits would just pick up and follow him when he left.
He never asked, and he never offered. They just came, and put their faith in him. Pretty soon what had been one man with song on his lips turned into a traveling carnival, a circus where folks slotted themselves into roles they discovered they had all been born to play.
They got big enough so that real circus acts heard tell of them and joined up too. Made things respectable, at least on the outside.
The circus followed the roads, going wherever he wanted. It got a bit of a rep, too. A little dirty, a little dangerous, and while he’d always come out to sing and make the ladies swoon, in the back alleys behind the tents there’d be darker stuff going on.
