Walking dead in the Wild West — Hunt: Horrors of the Gilded Age is Crytek's new co-op zombie-hunting game

While lots of games have been delayed until next year, Crytek unveiled a brand new title coming this fall on the PC and consoles in advance of next week’s Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) tradeshow. Hunt: Horrors of the Gilded Age is a Wild West-themed four-player co-op multiplayer game where you hunt zombies and other creatures.

It looks like a cowboy version of Valve’s Left4Dead, and the hunting concept isn’t so far from Turtle Rock Studios’ Evolve coming this fall. But the Frankfurt, Germany-based Crytek will likely try to set Hunt apart with killer graphics based on its CryEngine game engine.
