Predator: Hunting Grounds may not have put its best foot forward, but Sony and IllFonic have continued to update the asymmetrical title, and its ongoing efforts have culminated in the introduction of, well, Big Head mode today. The popular Nintendo 64 visual filter comes as part of a larger suite of custom private match options, which let you tweak the gameplay to your tastes.
With this feature comes some interesting preset modes: “The Floor is Lava – Predator bursts into flames when touching the ground – hope you have been practicing your Predkour. And for Clash Stabbers Only – because yes, you’re the guy that brings a knife to a gunfight. We can’t wait to see how you build out your custom private matches,” IllFonic’s Lucas Pedersen wrote on the PlayStation Blog.
And then there’s the addition of the Valkyrie Predator as premium DLC, who wields a two-handed Norse Hammer that does mega damage in close-quarters. You’ll be able to unlock the weapon through normal gameplay in April, but those who cough up for the expansion will be able to equip it early, and get some much-needed practice.

Is this still going ? I really can't see it having a big player base. So many better company's sony could of bought that these guys
@fR_eeBritney what's got you spooked? CIA got you pushin' too many pencils?
The game is good? The last predator game i like was Alien vs predator 2 primal hunt. Good game. Avp 2010 too was not bad, in other side colonial marines was a wtf game.... So hunting ground is good?

No. It's online only one person plays the predator while others are a team trying too take it down
Game on PS4 was ok. I put 20-30 hours or so into it before I uninstalled. The main reason was because I could no longer find a match, the player base had evaporated. The joys of Oceania servers. It probably needed to be F2P.
Premise was good, but the graphics were pretty janky, as was the shooting, and the games depended on getting matched with a Predator player who role played properly. The Predator could steamroll a team in seconds if they were the tank build and played it that way. Or if they didn't know what they were doing, they could be dead in seconds as well. So the games were highly unpredictable.
It does make me wish Evolve had succeeded as that game was a lot more polished. Criminal how they screwed that game up.
The game needs a bot mode even if its basic, there's barely any online presence nowadays so just add an offline bot mode and call it quits.
It is hard to see "Predator" to be butchered, but this is real massacre... Put aside lack of any idea, therefore making it online only, but Valkyrie??? Axes??? ... am I only one, who think it is stupid and nonsense? Someone should really give developers at least one page of Predator comix or show them at least one Predator movie scene, so they could have a spark of idea what they are making.
... and next comes Nefertiti Wolverine with Ancient Greek Spear, following by Quetza-coatl Diablo throwing N7 Normandy ships...
A shame no one cares for the game, I forget it even existed
