The prey you seek has all the advantages. From detectings the hunters by scent to pure strength of the beast, there is little chance of victory if not planned effectively. Only by avoiding being noticed, planning the perfect ambush, and making good use of the strange technology at your disposal can you bring down the monsters of the land.

From werewolves to vampires, each monster must be handled carefully or risk losing members of your elite squad.

The gods have turned their backs on the world, and evil is running amock. A corrupt presence has taken the world by storm and will augment the weather, transform the monsters, and bring the world into eternal darkness. As you travel the world in your mobile base, you must manage not only these beasts but also your camp as resources are limited.
