Crytek is on the hunt for the best four-minute or under original videos across various categories, with prizes from Alienware, AMD, MSI, and NZXT up for grabs!
Hunt: Showdown fans are invited to flex their creative muscles and show their short filmmaking skills by entering the inaugural Hunt: Showdown Video Awards. Prizes including a gaming laptop, graphics card, and a unique Hunt: Showdown-themed gaming PC are on offer from Hunt: Showdown partners, including Alienware, AMD, MSI, and NZXT!
Fans can become part of Hunt: Showdown history and win big by entering a video that tells a unique story in four minutes or under in the following award categories: “Action,” “Trailer,” and “Freestyle!” There is also the “At Least You Tried” category for those who aren’t experts at video editing, where ideas and entertainment are more important than a perfectly polished submission.
Submissions could be a killer cut of a cool stream, dubbed dialogue over action, a report on encounters in the bayou, or something new entirely!
To submit a video for the awards, fans must upload their creation to YouTube or Vimeo and share it on Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag #HuntShowdownAwards and the hashtag for the category they wish to enter: #HuntAction, #HuntTrailer, #HuntFreestyle, or #HuntTried.
Submission for entries closes on September 20th. The Hunt: Showdown Team will pick a shortlist of nominees for each category from all qualifying entries, and a public vote will be held to decide the winners, who will be revealed during a special Hunt: Showdown Video Awards ceremony, live on Twitch in October!
All nominees selected by the Hunt judging panel will win Hunt merch and two DLCs of their choice. The overall winner of the “Community Choice” award, chosen from the winners of each category, will also pick up a one-of-a-kind Hunt: Showdown-themed NZXT gaming PC.
The Hunt: Showdown Video Awards run alongside Hunt’s latest and biggest live event! Weapons and Blood Bonds are just some of the rewards up for grabs in the “Serpent Moon” event, which runs until September 25th. All players who join the “Serpent Moon” event will be able to play with a new Legendary Hunter, “Viper.” In a first for Hunt, this unique character will visually evolve through different stages as players progress.
Hunt: Showdown is out now for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
