Hood: Outlaws and Legends, the multiplayer PvPvE heist game from Sumo Digital and Focus Home interactive, introduces in-depth gameplay of one of the four playable classes available at launch. Matchmaking in opposing teams of four, choose your character based on your preferred playstyle, or what best fits your team’s strategy. In this game where cooperation is key, your team’s composition can suit a stealthy long-range approach, a brutal close combat heist or a balanced band of Outlaws prepared for anything. Today, join game director Andrew Willans once again for the second character gameplay trailer to discover The Hunter!
Become the ultimate silent terror
The Hunter is elusive and mysterious, with her quick takedowns, invisibility magic, and smoke grenades making her a terror in infiltration and assassination. Her main weapon is a modified arm-mounted crossbow, which can load up to three bolts at once to fire a deadly burst, giving her incredible lethality at close and mid-range.
The Hunter’s ultimate ability is the Shroud, covering her with a near-invisible sheen and making her completely undetectable by guards. This grants her unique advantages in infiltration, letting her reach the treasure vault with ease, or assassinating the enemy backlines with terrifying efficiency. When it comes to supporting her band of outlaws, the Hunter’s smoke grenades can be used to prevent enemies from tagging teammates or to cover sightlines for a tactical advantage.

Two teams of 4 players compete to execute the perfect heist, in medieval environments patrolled by deadly AI guards. With the unique skills and mystical abilities of each character, moving in stealth to steal treasures unseen or dominating through loud and brutal combat.
