Yea, ik. But the only real outlier to this is Clash. In terms of canoncity, of course HG is under the rule of “Canon until it isn’t”, and it’s exactly that. Canon. AvP, Neca, and now Comic stuff is in the game. Ain’t that swell?
God DAMN some of y'all are ungrateful
How is AvP canon to Predator now? Also do you happen to have Illfonic’s statements? Because AvP isn’t canon to their game. Its simply not. If it is, where is Weyland-Yutani? Where are the androids? Colonial Marines? Where are the Xenomorphs? The ancient hunting rituals Preds would do on earth with Xenos? Where are any mentions whatsoever to any of that? Why aren’t the AvP Preds in the game, and why are their masks labeled differently? Do you have legitimate, logical answers to any of these questions? Also Alpha is canon, but is not canon to AvP.
you mean all the dead preds that are in the game, neon purple masks, zeus not telling them whats out there when they’re allegedly hunting predators? Can you specify which missions are “canon?”
only thing remotely relevant is the tapes and thats very generous considering these are film franchises that have never cared about or referenced the games or neca time travel shit.
No work went into this. All of this “work” was already did and they were just waiting to “unlock” it when it was time
no way they were working on this for months
imagine what unplayable state the other two maps must be in for them to pull them from the roster
I read somewhere it took six months to build Headquarters. I call major BS. Six months, for ONE map? Lol ok.
I am overjoyed with this, I don’t know what the expectations are but they surpassed mine
Who ya gonna call!?
you know if illfonic considers it unplayable its in a bad state
Maybe they think people dont deserve them? Sort of like a naughty step?
AvP is Canon to Predator by the same way Alpha is Canon to Predator. It is in Hunting Grounds. Hunting Grounds is Canonical to Predator as per Illfonic on statements made before the Game Released and even this year when concerning other lore.
Off the game, Illfonic has been seen confirming stuff as Canon Twitter. Obviously they would have had been given authorization to post stuff like this as everything is supposedly hush hush with them.

Dutch 2025 Canoncity Statment (in replies):
Without Hunting Grounds?
Predator Universe Map posted in the midst of The Predator hype session. Planets seen are from Alien and AvP.
The Predator Verse Map:
I’m not gonna be a idiot and say just because Xeno Skull was in Pred 2 or Lex Spear in The Pred cause those are Easter Eggs and not indicative of Canon.
There doesn’t need to be W-Y or Xenos themsleves in HG or mentioned to make AvP Canon. We really just need the appearances of these character’s masks. If you need a honest to lore explanation, then it’s just not mentioned as Concrete Jungle supposedly takes place 5 years after Hunting Grounds.
I honestly am a bit lost when it comes to the names of the Masks as Falconer shouldn’t be named “Foxtrot”. Mr. Black is fine so I honestly don’t think it’s a AvP Mask issue.
If it was, I could compare it to the Jason Vorehees situation. Is it Jason Vorheees if you don’t mention his mom? Ofc it is. Just like how Celtic’s Mask is Celtic even if you call it “Mors”, or Falconer’s “Foxtrot”.
Sony’s ps blog is what’s hush hush. Not Fox.
Fox hasn’t given a single fuck about pred canon since its inception, you have books that don’t even remotely try to line up with movie events. They’ll market games as canon because it sells - Colonial Marines.
You’re being marketed to until the next thing is out.
D’accord avec vous y’a des bugs mais niveau contenu c’est super ILLFONIC TANK YOU
Should I remind you that Coloinal Marine’s story isn’t even Canon anymore? Just the Xeno Breeds or the Tech, but the story has been officially retconned. HG is a different case because it worked.
If I was being marketed to, Scarface would be here rn.
See you in 5 years at the next canon pred game.
or maybe we’ll be thrown into the retcon disneyverse by then
reskinning masks takes 6 months give them another year your fanservice will make it probably before servers are down.
I get what you’re saying, and I’ve already admitted that HG is Canon until the day it isn’t. For now tho? Def Canon and what it brings, not whatever customization the player brings into it is Canon.
Might be Canon for a while. Will have to see what Skulls or Marvel’s Pred will do but meh.
AvP is canon, explain the Xeno tail spear in the last Predator movie. Now we have AvP masks in a somewhat canon game, making AvP canon. Change my mind.
Let’s keep in mind the most effective way to make sure we can get our eyes on bugs and feedback is to post them in the correct forum sections :)
I don’t mention that because it’s technically a Easter egg but The Predator was planned to be a AvP Movie anyway (Time Travling Ripley and Ms Yutani from Requiem) so it works.
Should the post get moved to Feedback then?
