Hunter: The Reckoning V5

The biggest announcement so far of the Month of Darkness - the next game using the V5 rules is Hunter: The Reckoning.

They also have Werewolf: The Apocalypse news. It is a fifth edition game which is a fifth edition, while Hunter will be a second.

Hunter is a surprise as one of the later games, but it was the second to get traction in video games after Vampire: The Masquerade. Personally it’s one I never got into, as I had other monster-hunting games already and was looking more for something like Buffy. I have played a little of the more generalised Hunter: The Vigil in Chronicles Of Darkness.

The PC Hunters have conceptual Creeds and some sometimes supernatural but also natural Edges are low-level types on the outs with the big hunting groups. Closer to Vigil in some ways?

Looks like it will actually come out ahead of Werewolf too.
