"Predator: Hunting Grounds is a great addition to the multiplayer shooter genre, with plenty of fun to be had regardless of which side you choose to play."
Read original review"Few contents compared to the competition. Various structural, as well as technical, issues. Fun only in the short term, and only with the right company."
Read original review"Predator: Hunting Grounds&s; lack of variety and shallow gameplay make it difficult to stick with beyond a handful of rounds."

"Predator: Hunting Grounds looks and sounds like Predator, but lacks the soul of the 1987 classic film. For being one of the most iconic hunters in the galaxy, the Predator feels weak compared to the vastly overpowered Fireteam. I never …"

"Predator: Hunting Grounds reminds me very much of Evolve and Illfonic&s;s previous Friday the 13th game. That is to say it has a lot of potential. The core gameplay can be fun, though the time between the fun"

"Predator: Hunting Grounds is a decent multiplayer romp with just enough content and ideas to make it worthwhile. It&s;s a huge improvement over Ifflonic&s;s last game, Dead Alliance, and one that&s;s definitely pumped up thanks to having a popular license …"
Read original review"I&s;m curious where Predator: Hunting Grounds will go from here given Sony&s;s backing and IllFonic&s;s takeaways from its prior game, Friday the 13th. Despite all the glaring issues, numerous nitpicks, and small scope, I have a real soft spot for …"
Read original review"The game occasionally creates wild, stupid situations that feel a lot like an 80s action movie, but that’s not enough to sustain a multiplayer game for a long period of time."
Read original review"Predator: Hunting Grounds feels like a rough and empty game that is held up by its adherence to the original film&s;s tone and atmosphere. But the overall quality hits more like the forgettable sequels, unfortunately."

"Much like a real hunt, Predator: Hunting Grounds rewards patience. Wading through the questionable technical performance and perplexing design gives persistent Predators a multiplayer experience that flourishes as its cat-and-mouse gameplay reveals itself like a newly uncloaked Yautja."
