    • The Burgess slide-action shotgun (6 rounds, Bayonet and Trauma variants), LeMat High Velocity ammo, and the Siphon and Chupacabra traits.
    • Loadouts can hold up to 15 traits and Hunter Slots rise from 75 to 100. Hotfix 2.9.0.1 (Sep 10) fixed crashes and re-enabled three Legendary Hunters.
    For buyers

    Blood Testament is a community event that unlocks permanent gameplay changes as players clear its stages, so boosting and account offers may advertise event unlocks.
