With itselegant old-timey settingand heart-rending approach to permadeath, Hunt: Showdown has always felt a bit more refined than your typical battle royale-esque game. That’s reflected in its Legendary Weapon skins, which range from ornately engraved revolvers to rifles adorned with cryptic wood-carvings. You’ll find no neon pink cameo or emoji graffiti here.

The Hunt: Showdown Twitch Drops event gives you the chance to grab a couple of these Legendary Weapons and the Legendary Hunter Lulu—a courtesan-turned-hunter. The event, which started November 24th, runs until December 1st. All you need to do for the rewards is link your Hunt account with Twitch then watch Twitch streams of the game for a specified amount of time. Youcouldeven just leave the streams running on a muted tab in the background, but take it from me that Hunt: Showdown makes for seriously suspenseful viewing (so no wonderthey’re turning the game into a TV series).

The remaining rewards in the event, and the watch time required to unlock them, are as follows:

So how exactly does this event work? First, you need to link your Twitch account with your Steam accountvia this page.

You’ll then be taken through toa list of partner streamersfor Hunt: Showdown. For Drop 5 and Drop 6, you can tune intoany Hunt: Showdown Twitch stream with the tag ‘Drops Enabled’, but to get the bonus exclusive drop you’ll need to watch 90 minutes of one of the 15 streamers listed under ‘The Marquis’ section on the partners page.

The good thing is that the time spent watching one of the 15 partner streamers counts towards the other drops, so if you’re short on time just tune into one of those to get two drops after 90 minutes, then the legendary hunter after a further 180 minutes.

Remember that you need to claim the rewards onyour Twitch Drops pagein order to get them in-game. Some players are reporting that there’s a delay between claiming the rewards on Twitch and seeing them in-game, and that a potential fix is to unlink then re-link your Twitch and Steam account on the Hunt site.
