Introducing the Labrador Retriever

Who’s a good friend that walks on four legs, fetches small game on land or in water, and loves your company more than anyone else in the world?

We know someone who does: the Labrador Retriever, your faithful new hunting partner!

Waiting ever so patiently for their forever home, this loveable pup is arriving on PC and Console on November 28th for $5.99. You can wishlist it now on Steam and Epic Games Store.

OUR NEWEST FAMILY MEMBER: THE LABRADOR RETRIEVER

The second dog to be released for theHunter: Call of the Wild, the Labrador Retriever isn’t just adorable! It’s also an intelligent, versatile companion that empowers you to hunt in an efficient new way.

By being able to – on command – fetch any rabbit, hare, waterfowl, or upland bird on land or in water, your Lab will tirelessly pick up harvests around you by order of priority, starting with the one you are aiming at.

In other words, it allows you to continue searching for your next target without interruption. It’s a loyal, paw-lite friend to share the joy of hunting with – a reliable partner who has your back.

Like the Bloodhound, you can grow your connection to your Lab by petting it, giving it treats, or playing with it. In turn, as you get to know each other and hunt more often, its efficiency will improve over time.

Naturally, even the best hunters deserve a break now and then. When it’s time to head back to the lodge to unwind, you can count on your trusty sidekick to be there with you, happily wagging its tail.

Of course, you will be able to name your dog, choose its fur coat variation, and assign traits that match your hunting style.

You can also add multiple dogs to your roster, making it easy to pick which one to hunt with. It’s available as both male and female, in seven unique fur coat variations: Black, Yellow, Chocolate, Silver, Charcoal, Fox Red, and Champagne.

Lastly, as we continue to refine dog behavior and plan for future dog utility improvements, we’ll be adjusting the Bloodhound DLC price to $5.99 early next year, to match the Labrador Retriever. If you’ve ever thought about adding it to your hunting roster, now is the time to do it!
