Carnival Hunt

The release date for Carnival Hunt is July 23, 2026, for PC. This 5v1 asymmetrical horror game pits five fragile, clockwork bunnies against a single player controlling the Carnival Monster in a shifting circus environment. While many games in this genre focus on combat or repair tasks, this title centers on the mechanics of winding keys and battery management.

Sound is the primary danger, as every action required to stay powered up—from winding yourself to helping a teammate—creates distinct noise that draws the hunter. Success depends entirely on resource sharing, as bunnies must trade a limited supply of keys to prevent their teammates from running down. If you want a more cooperative, high-tension take on the first-person hunter formula, this is a distinct mechanical twist on the genre. Buy this at launch if you have a reliable group for coordinated stealth play.
