S2 GAMES Presents Announcement Trailer for its Brutal and Banworthy Project: Serial Hunter!
The development studio officially shares the first trailer of one of its original productions – the brutal FPP game Serial Hunter. Developing premium-indie games, S2 GAMES won’t shy away from covering controversial topics in their upcoming titles.
S2 GAMES, a European-based development studio and game publisher operating in the premium indie segment, is officially announcing their first project: Serial Hunter, a brutal, uncompromising representation of the FPP genre, featuring a fearsome masked avenger.
In Serial Hunter, the player will play the role of John Doe, an investigative journalist who specialises in uncovering unsolved criminal riddles. Through his contacts in the police, street informers and deduction skills, he doesn’t only cover the news of the criminals loitering the city’s streets, but takes justice in his own hands, punishing those for whom the courts were too kind or others who escaped the hands of justice altogether.
“The truth is that someone like John Doe could very well be walking among us, amongst regular people, who day in day out hear terrible news reports, but are powerless to act” explains Mike Jadore, S2’s Game Designer and the original creator of the game. “However controversial, Serial Hunter’s lead character is the perfect storm of social frustration, angst and anger. John believes that too often punishment is disproportionate to blame. So? He takes matters into his own hands”.
As seen in the trailer, in Serial Hunter the player will become judge, jury and executioner. If someone thinks that cutting a hand with a chainsaw will be appropriate to the theft, one will be able to do so. But maybe it is enough to beat the thief and hand him over to the police? Or for worse crimes… eliminate? The severity of the punishment is sure to be strengthened by the John Doe’s rich arsenal of tools for the administration of justice, ranging from simple blunt weapons to construction and gardening tools.

Ten Square Games starts technical release for Medal Hunter ahead of global launch
Ten Square Games has begun a phased rollout for Medal Hunter, a new mobile PvP shooter for iOS and Android. The title entered technical release on 4 May, with global availability planned around the turn of May and June, subject to further improvements.
The initial rollout covers Mexico, Vietnam, the Philippines and Poland. Ten Square Games said this stage is focused on verifying technical KPIs and performance stability, while the team fine-tunes gameplay parameters.
Around mid-May, Medal Hunter is expected to move into a broader soft launch, with gradual availability in Australia, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States. The company said the focus will then shift to validating short-term retention and engagement.
Medal Hunter is set in combat environments inspired by different historical periods, with architecture and weapons “strongly influenced” by real references but stylized for mobile play. At launch, the game includes five locations, and players compete in short PvP rounds by eliminating moving targets including aircraft and naval units, using two different shooting models.
CEO Andrzej Ilczuk said the project builds on Ten Square Games’ development approach used for Trophy Hunter: “Medal Hunter is an example of how we are putting our growth strategy into practice. Trophy Hunter helped us build a new development model based on clear benchmarks, early validation and a better understanding of the signals that matter before scaling a product. Medal Hunter capitalizes on that experience and on the broader product knowledge we have built across our portfolio. By using proven gameplay mechanics and working in this model, we were able to bring a new title to market in less than a year from the start of development. This gives us earlier insight into a game’s potential, helps limit development risk and allows us to shape products more closely around what players actually respond to”.
