Port Sulphur Band, Hunt’s in-game band, have had an incredible 2024 and with this Developer Insight we would like to shine a light on their achievements for the year!

Originally conceived as both a way to drive atmosphere and tell stories in the supernatural world of Hunt, Port Sulphur Band was born. Their music brings life to the haunting tales of the 1800s Louisiana bayou, and over time what began as a storytelling tool has become a fully-fledged band with over 67 million streams.

2024 was a huge year for the band, and they released 5 different singles: An Acquired Taste, Make Them Bleed, Dressed to Die, Curtain Call and their latest single, You Call it Madness.

In August their vinyl collection, Shadows Calling, was launched in partnership with Black Screen Records, and it was an incredible success - even charting number 62 on the German album charts. In the same month, the band played Gamescom on the social stage with hundreds of fans and new listeners turning up to enjoy the sounds of Hunt.

Port Sulphur Band has accumulated a devoted cult following, with over 1 million listeners across 177 countries on Spotify alone. By the end of 2024, the developer-led band achieved 9.65 million streams and 467,000 listening hours on the platform, with thousands more hours across YouTube, Amazon Music, and more. A milestone moment this year included their hit "Rise Up Dead Man" surpassing 10 million streams, solidifying their position as a rising force in music.

Port Sulphur Band is closing out 2024 with one final exciting announcement: their two iconic albums, The Sinner's Songbook and The Devil's Match, will be available for purchase on Steam starting December 18th. Fans can grab these musical collections for €7.99 and €9.99! Both albums are available to wishlist now:
