About the story
It is the 9th Age of humanity. The cycle of day is ruled by humans, the night one by horrid creatures. Despite its efforts, humanity is annihilated with every arrival of the Night. A group of humans, calling themselves 'The Stalkers,’ discovered how to use the power of darkness to their advantage and fought the Night. However, it was not enough, and with every new dawn humanity rose again knowing that, with darkness, comes extinction. Humanity found the ‘Seal of Night,’ an artifact that allowed them to stop the cycle in an everlasting day. In exchange for a blood oath that The Stalkers were willing to pay, the sun ruled for hundreds of generations and, for the first time, hope was a beacon of light. Yet fate proved unstoppable, and they paid the ultimate price. Now, as the Night starts devouring every single glint of light, Vesper, a Stalker by right and daughter of the traitor, will travel a dying land trying to save the last embers of humanity. She hunts in a race against destiny, as the shadows lengthen both in the world and in her mind.

Critic Reviews
RPGamer
By Pascal TekaiaIts relatively short runtime offers a tight and enjoyable experience that could do with a little bit more content and world-building to iron out the well-intentioned content provided. With a very solid presentation backing it up, it’s an easy recommendation for dark action RPG fans.
ThisGenGaming
By Justin OneilOverall, Hunt the Night is a great looking action-RPG that will push your skills to the limit but one that is very rewarding when you pass its challenges. It has dark and beautiful world to explore, challenging combat against great enemy designs, and lots of lore and things to find.
Spaziogames
ByHunt the Night is a challenging and rewarding game with a grim atmosphere, a great art design and a well balanced combat system.
Everyeye.it
By Giovanni PanzanoNet of some imperfections, Hunt the Night is a product that manages to entertain for its entire duration and beyond, given the presence of extra modes that offer bread for the teeth of soulslike fans and the like.

By Eser GüvenWe don't have Bloodborne on PC, but we do have Hunt the Night, its Zelda-infused, pixelated version. Even in its current form where there are some difficulty spikes it's a game that will please those who love difficulty and challenge.
