If you remember and liked The Culling, a small-scale battle royale game, you may be interested to note that The Culling 2, a ground-up rework of the original, is ready to launch a bit later today. The Culling 2 is akin to The Hunger Games with 50 players (up from 16 in the original) dropped into a 20km x 20km arena where the hunt is on for both weapons...and the competition. The Culling 2 adds guns to the mix alongside the original's melee weapons.
The Culling 2 expands on every aspect of its predecessor: The arena is now a massive space, with 20 square kilometers in which to explore, loot, and fight. In addition to the established melee combat system, a wide range of firearms are now on offer, from 9mm pistols to high-caliber sniper rifles. All ballistics have been carefully tuned to match real-world equivalents, making for tense and tactical firefights. With 50 players, the matches are set to be fast and brutal, while still accommodating players who prefer a more cautious approach.
The game unlocks at 7:00 am Pacific / 10:00 am Eastern.
