  • Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2013 Includes 'Fearmaster' Peripheral

    Activision announced today that Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2013 will include a new "Top Shot Fearmaster" wireless controller. Fearmaster? Yes, Fearmaster.


    The Top Shot Fearmaster utilizes a biometric heart rate monitor to propel players into the world of hunting. Sensors are built into the controllers’ grips and gameplay varies based on the player’s ability to control their fear and maintain their cool. Players that successfully control their heart rate will increase their accuracy, deal more damage, or slow down time to line up the perfect shot. The importance of a stable, even breathing pattern and a steady hand is vital to the best shot while out in the real life wilderness, and that is no different in Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2013. With the all new Fearmaster controller and on screen monitor, players will recognize how keeping their breath steady will decrease their heart rate while also increasing gun stability and ultimately accuracy.


    Unfortunately, the Wii version of the game will not include the heart rate sensor, only the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions have it. Also new in 2013 is the fact that predators can form "pack social hieracrhives, coordinate complex group tactics and take advantage of the surroundings to set up deadly ambushes."

    Wait, if we're the ones with the guns, aren't the humans also slotted under the "predator" heading? It really makes you think.

    There's also a story here surrounding estranged brothers reuniting after they haven't seen each other in ten years due to some crazy antics with their father dying to a grizzly bear. Actually, let's let the press release do the talking here, because this is quality stuff.

    One beast tore them apart. Can another beast bring them back together? The game also includes a new horde-based “Maneater” mode allowing for two-player co-operative gameplay where teamwork is essential as both players must work together to strategize and complete missions in order to survive for as long as possible. The game will feature both symmetric and asymmetric missions in Maneater mode.


    Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2013 is available on October 23 for $79.99 on the PS3 and Xbox 360. It will be available on the Wii for just $59.99. These prices include the Top Shot Fearmaster peripheral. If you don't want the FEARMASTER, you can pick the game up for $39.99 (360, PS3) or $29.99 (Wii).
