From all of us at IllFonic we wish everyone happy holidays. To celebrate our busy year after the massive launch of a quarantine game, 15 DLC additions / game updates to Predator: Hunting Grounds, a new mode, a new map and countless new game additions we have saved the BEAST for the holidays …
Yes, it’s true. Today, December 8, our paid DLC pack introduces a whole new character to the Predator lore. Help us welcome Dante “Beast Mode” Jefferson – who comes to life with the voice and look of football legend Marshawn Lynch.
Recruited into a special operations group early in his military career, Dante “Beast Mode” Jefferson has earned a reputation for ruthless fierceness in combat. Using his signature explosive weaponry, Dante has led his team through several missions around the world with unparalleled success. During a secret mission in the jungles of Thailand, his team was hunted by a predator. He saw his team being trained one by one and slaughtered. Dante was forced to hunt the killer on his own and, with a well-placed B34S-T rocket, managed to destroy the Predator, leaving no trace. After requesting an exfile, Dante was picked up and airlifted to an unknown location, coming face to face with Dutch, who had an offer: to join his team …
So he did.
To learn more about the B34S-T rocket, ask yourself… Beast Mode’s custom B34S-T (BEAST) rocket launcher mimics its owner’s power. Built as an anti-armor weapon, this rocket-propelled grenade launcher quickly became an OWLF favorite. It’s also the only rocket launcher in the game. This weapon monster will be unlockable for everyone after our next update in February, but early access to the B34S-T rocket comes with the purchase of the new DLC pack. Jefferson “Beast Mode” by Dante.
It’s not the only thing you’ll have access to this holiday season. The OWLF has opened its R&D department to offer you new toys. All players can now enjoy a new OWLF class unlocked at level 40 and multiple weapons as part of the free update. All players will also be able to unlock the Battle Ax at level 85, which comes with our Viking Predator update in October.
We’re adding a new OWLF Operative class, built with one job in mind, to take out the Predator in combat. Equipped with a thermal suit, the soldier’s infrared signature will be difficult for everyone to follow. This powerful player won’t need a lot of mud, if at all.
New weapons include:
- Proximity Sensor Launcher – PDL (Level 43 Unlocked): Using modified Predator technology, the OWLF modernizes a grenade launcher to fire proximity-sensing mines. This new tool allows them to turn tables on a Predator and become the hunter.
- Electromagnetic Pulse – EMP Mine (Level 80 Unlock): The OWLF created this modified EMP mine to interact with Predator technology. When triggered, it will knock out a predator’s cloak and send its entire system overloaded.
- Plasma Rifle (unlock level 135): Fresh out of the R&D department of the OWLF, this projectile weapon fires a concentrated and explosive shell with plasma energy at high speed. Fully automatic, energy-based, with a ventilation process to recharge the plasma shots.
For more details, see our patch notes. We suggest you take advantage of the downtime this holiday season to practice what’s to come… We can’t wait to share what we have in store for 2021.
From all of us at IllFonic we wish you a Happy New Year and we wish you a Happy New Year!
