Midsummers Day 2025

Howdy Hunters

Is it just me, or is this year flying by? It's already Midsummer! That means an event. Enjoy our usual campaign, 3 competitions and mission in the Classic old-style event where you're out for yourself. The scorer this time around is male Turkeys. Like last year, the mission will give you a taste of the Summer Fiesta. It's been almost two years since the last one, you must be pining for some good old fashioned difficulty spikes.

Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! The hunter with the most Summer$ at the end of June 30th will win a very generous first prize!


CALENDAR
Duration: 7 days

Start: 18 June 2025 (Wednesday) - morning

End: 24 June 2025 (Tuesday) - 23.59 UTC

CAMPAIGN PRIZES
So how do you collect Sun$?

This is how the prize pool looks:

MISSION
This year's mission is called Summer Fun

Like last year, this is a bit of a warm-up for the Fiesta. It's a little harder than the usual event fare, but nowhere near the fiesta itself. That being said, don't be afraid to ask our wonderful community for help. Event missions can almost always be done in multiplayer.

Make sure you hunt the animal in the reserve listed at the start of the objective. Summer maps refer to any of the maps listed in the mission objectives.

The mission will last throughout the duration of the event.

COMPETITIONS
Qualifying in a competition awards 100 Sun$ for each comp. You don't need to place, just have an entry.

RULES
What would a game be without rules?

We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners' hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.

In case of exploit usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.


SALES

And what would an Event be without sales? We're not sure, but we do know that we'd get nasty messages if we skipped them, so we've made sure to put sales in.

Make sure to check out the Sale section to see the full list!

That's all folks, any questions, feel free to post them below.

Enjoy all!

There is a problem with the last objective of the comp :
- While on any of the summer maps: Kill 2 deer (not elk or moose) with a single shot.

I killed two blacktail deers with a single shot in this hunt and the objective is not complete : https://www.thehunter.com/#profile/horn ... /130183667

They have to both be killed by the same shot. In other words, you have to use buckshot so that different pellets kill both at the same time. It's just like the last Rusa deer mission where you have to kill two Rusa with the same shot, and the last shotgun mission where you have to kill two Whitetails on Rougaroo with the same shot.

Something like this. One shot, two confirmed kills.
