Shrek's House Got Added to Hunt: Showdown for Some Reason

Hunt: Showdown will add a new map in its next update, and it comes with a reference to a very different kind of monster to its usual mix of grim creations – Shrek.

As pointed out by JackFrags (below), the new DeSalle map (which is live in test servers right now, before a release later this summer) includes a very familiar swamp-house in the far south-west. Not only does the house look almost identical to Shrek's house, but it includes an outhouse that will undoubtedly become home to a thousand Smash Mouth-soundtracked meme videos very soon.

It's far from the first referential Easter Egg in Hunt: Showdown – the game includes everything from Evil Dead's cabin to a scene from Django Unchained. Hell, the new DeSalle map is brimming with even more references, including the mysterious Utah monolith and The Godfather.

Hunt: Showdown is a competitive, monster-killing bounty hunter shooter. We called it a "palpably tense and terrifying shooter that’s equal parts survival and competition" in our original review.
