Dawn breaks and the hunt begins.

What is Beast?

Welcome to the Northern Expanse, a place where nature is still unexplored, mystical and dangerous. Beast is a one-vs-many type of game, in which one player takes the role of a Beast: a giant godlike creature who wants to fend off the humans invading their domains. All other players take the role of hunters, who cooperate in an epic hunt to track and kill the Beast.

Beast is a fantastic example of One vs Many game. Studio Midhall really knocked it out of the park.
