The Wild Hunt is a datapack that turns Minecraft into an all-vs-one PvP minigame.
Everyone except one player becomes a Hunter. That lone individual is the Prey.
- Prey: Survive for 15 minutes while being hunted and the border closes in.
- Hunter: Work together to hunt the Prey.
If the Hunters kill the Prey, they win and move to the next round.
If the Prey survives until time runs out, everyone moves into the next round.
The prey will be announced to the hunters after 2.5 minuites
