Duke can run, climb, crawl, sniff, leap, and yes...mark his territory. This is just a small glimpse of everything he can do!

We had a great time at FORMAT Liverpool a few weeks back.
We were proud to sponsor it for the second year in a row and show how far Hounded has come in that time.
Thank you to everyone who came to our booth and talked to us about Duke. We hope you enjoyed your Hounded M&Ms and Stickers, too!

Just 8 days left of the campaign and we are almost at £36k which will unlock a new emote for Duke.
And remember:
The referral challenge is live where you can win a games console.
If we reach £50k, Hounded will be released on PS5 and XBOX Series X
Spread it around!

The one you've been asking for!
If the campaign reaches £50,000, Hounded will be ported to PlayStation 5 and XBOX Series X consoles!
Also, at £36,000 the Brasil Dog Dance emote will be unlocked in game for Duke to perform!
Let's get Hounded on console!
