Update 0.3.2 is now live. We're continuing to focus on strengthening the foundation of Way of the Hunter 2 by fixing bugs, improving stability, and fine-tuning the existing gameplay experience. But while you wait for our next major content update with a list of bug fixes, we wanted to give you something new to take into the field. Thanks to our friends at Christensen Arms, the Evoke Precision hunting rifle is now available in the game.
Check out the new trailer here:
Built for hunters who value precision and versatility, Christensen Arms Evoke (.243 Win) offers:
Sub-MOA accuracy
Ergonomic handling
Suppressor-ready performance
Reliable all-terrain capability
It's an excellent choice for hunting medium-sized big game, whether you're tracking through dense forests or covering open terrain.

Alongside the new rifle, this update also brings a handful of fixes. You can now retrieve placed gear from the Hunting Map if it ends up somewhere hard to reach. If you've ever placed a decoy or other gear somewhere you couldn't reach afterward, you can now retrieve it directly from the Hunting Map with new "Collect" action on its map marker. It should work within 50m, and the item will be sent to your Storage. For more info about today's update, please check the patch notes below.
