theHunter: Call of the Wild will soon have a few new weapons for players to hunt with. The Old West Weapon Pack DLC adds a trio of powerful, "iconic" 19th-century classic weapons. These old weapons, which will be new to you, include a "hard-hitting rifle, a double-barreled shotgun, and a single-action revolver."
The new weapons will arrive on September 15 for PlayStation, XBOX, and PC. For more details on the new weapons, read below. Yes, they do have actual names in the game beyond the generics of "hard-hitting rifle" and such. The weapons are the Hween .45-90 Buffalo, Humphrey 10G Coach Gun, and the Maijo .44-40 Special.
This Old West Weapon Pack will sell for $4.99, and you can apparently pre-order it right now if that's the sort of thing you feel like doing for a three-weapon pack.
The Old West Weapon Pack features three firearms:
- Hween .45-90 Buffalo - based on the iconic Sharps Model 1874, the most legendary single-shot rifle of the time. This weapon delivers massive destructive force within short-to-middle ranges. A deliberate firearm that rewards absolute precision, it features highly detailed animations, an adaptive dual-mode Buckhorn sight. Choose between versatile Cast Lead Flat Nose ammo for forgiving trajectories on medium-to-large game, or high-impact Soft Lead bullets that maximise stopping power on massive game at 100-150 meters. It also includes two variants of a period-appropriate rifle scope for long-range accuracy.
- Humphrey 10G Coach Gun - this thunderous double-barreled shotgun fires heavy 10-gauge brass black-powder shells, blasting a massive, high-damage pellet spread. While its thick white muzzle smoke and unpredictable scatter demand you get close, its external hammers and partial reload, swapping only the spent shell offers great tactile feedback. Fire 10GA Brass Black Powder loaded with Birdshot for small game (classes 1–2), Buckshot for medium game up to bears (classes 4–7), or heavy Slugs for ultimate hard-hitting, short-range penetration on massive game (classes 6–9).
- Maijo .44-40 Special - Unleash the ultimate Wild West sidearm fantasy. Based on the legendary top-break Schofield revolver, the single-action Maijo .44-40 trades a sliver of raw power for lightning-fast, superior handling. Its internal automatic extractor purges instantly all six spent casings the moment you break open the frame. Engineered to dominate animal classes 2–5, the Maijo can be loaded with .44-40 Black Powder for a deep, low-frequency boom that shakes the wilderness, or .44-40 Full Metal Jacket smokeless ammo for a fast, snappy recoil pattern and elite, high-velocity penetration.
