      5. 3 x Random Tool or Consumable
      6. 1 x Random amount of Hunt Dollars

    Note: Please note, you will not receive any physical “Crate” in-game for these Drops rewards. Once a “Crate” has been claimed through Twitch, all the above items will be rewarded as individual pop-ups in the game (as with any other reward). The Supply Crates are just names and visuals given to symbolize being granted a stash of items and is only displayed in this way on the Drops page on Twitch.

    What is the process to link my game account and Twitch account?
    1. Click the button Link Account on the Twitch Drops Hunt: Showdown page.
    2. Select which platform you want to link: Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox.
    3. Log in to your game account to verify that you are the owner.
    4. Authorize your Twitch account to allow Hunt: Showdown 1896 permission to access some information related to your Twitch account. Please confirm you are using the correct Twitch account before proceeding.
    5. Once authorized, you will be redirected to the Hunt: Showdown 1896 Twitch Drops page where you can confirm the account is connected.
    Do I always need to be logged in to the game?
    No, you do not need to have the game open while watching. However, to earn the rewards, you must be using the correct Twitch account when watching Hunt: Showdown 1896 streamers. If you are not logged in, you will not accumulate time towards the Drops’ progress, and you won't receive rewards.

    You can check the progress you’re making at the Twitch Drops Inventory page. Once a reward has been claimed through the Drops page on Twitch, the unlock pop-up will appear in-game upon your next login.
    What can I do if linking my Twitch account fails?
    The most common cause of a failed account connection is that one or more of your accounts may already be linked. You can check the current Twitch connections by logging into your Twitch account, select “Settings” and then the “Connections” tab. This will display a list of the accounts that are connected and will allow you to add or remove connections as you wish.

    If you encounter further issues with account linking, please contact customer support.

    Note: Our customer support team is unable to add, remove, or otherwise alter any link between your Twitch account and any other service. The team will be happy to provide support and guidance on how to correctly link your account, but please be aware they cannot make any direct changes to the linked accounts.
    I linked my account last year; do I need to re-link my account?
    Your account link should carry over from the last Twitch Drops campaign, however we highly recommend checking your connection status through the Twitch Drops campaign page and on www.huntshowdown.com/twitchdrops.

    Make sure to double check both pages to make sure you do not miss any of the rewards.
    Which streamers can I watch during the campaign?
    All Twitch streamers are eligible to participate in this Twitch Drops campaign. Streamers must ensure they have enabled Drops on their account and are actively streaming in the Hunt: Showdown 1896 category. You can check out the Hunt Twitch directory to find participating streams.

    We also encourage you to check out the members of the Night of the Hunter/Crytek Partner program.
    I claimed the Drops reward through Twitch, but it’s not appearing in-game. Why?
    First, you will need to make sure you have claimed the item through the Drops reward page:
    https://www.twitch.tv/drops/inventory.

    Next, you will need to make sure you have also linked your account through our Drops page here: www.huntshowdown.com/twitchdrops.

    Please note, it can take some time for the items to process and appear in-game. If you continue to experience issues after this time, please refer to our help article here:
