505 Games U.S. and Field & Stream today announced that Field & Stream: Total Outdoorsman Challenge is set for release in May 2010 on Xbox 360. Total Outdoorsman Challenge teaches players a variety of authentic hunting skills, including bullet trajectory, weapon aim, and expert tracking techniques. Featuring a true-to-life, first-person perspective, players explore authentic environments, listen for animal calls, check the ground for tracks and sign, and use 'Scent Vision' to spot and track prey. As their hunting skills progress, players can close in on targets by utilizing special scents and decoys, and by setting up permanent hideouts and vantage points. To further challenge players, each mission must be completed while respecting local rules and regulations.

More than 30 big game, small game, predator and game bird species roam each of the multiple environments, which feature exciting wildlife activity and varying weather conditions in both day and night cycles. There are serious and casual modes, starting with Practice Mode, where the basics of learning to aim at targets and train with skeet shooting are taught. Free Hunt Mode allows players to hunt any animal without restrictions, regulations or licenses. Players can also experience the thrill of the hunt in Ultimate Hunt Mode-the most challenging, rigorous experience in the game-which requires players to use traditional tracking and stalking techniques to hunt prize catches and brave the wilderness.

Gamers will set their crosshairs in May 2010 with Field & Stream: Total Outdoorsman Challenge for Xbox 360.
