If you are seeing a CryCloud Error (often code 0x30001) in Hunt: Showdown 1896 right now, it is almost certainly because the servers are down for scheduled maintenance.
Current Status: Maintenance in Progress
What is happening: Crytek took the servers offline today, November 26, 2025, for a backend update.
Start Time: The downtime began around 09:00 CET (approx. 1:30 PM IST / 3:00 AM ET).
Expected End Time: Maintenance was estimated to last ~4 hours, meaning servers should be back online around 13:00 CET (approx. 5:30 PM IST / 7:00 AM ET).
Recommendation: Do not reinstall the game. You just need to wait for the servers to come back online.

If You Still See This Error After Maintenance Ends
If the servers are officially back up (check the Hunt: Showdown Discord or Twitter/X) and you still get this error, try these fixes:
1. The “Region Switch” Fix (Most Effective)
Sometimes your client gets stuck trying to connect to a region that is timing out.
Go to your installation folder:
\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Hunt Showdown\user\profiles\defaultOpen
attributes.xmlwith Notepad.Find the line that says
Region(e.g.,<Attr name="Region" value="EU"/>).Change the value to a different region (e.g., change
"EU"to"US_EAST").Save the file and launch the game.
2. Verify Integrity of Game Files
This fixes corrupted files that might be triggering the Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) system erroneously.
Right-click Hunt: Showdown 1896 in your Steam Library.
Go to Properties > Installed Files.
Click Verify integrity of game files.
3. Delete the User Folder
This resets your local configuration cache (you will lose your settings/keybinds, so screen shot them first if possible).
Go to
\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Hunt Showdown\Delete the folder named
user.Restart the game.
Summary:
For right now, just wait until approximately 1:00 PM CET. The error will likely disappear on its own once the update is complete.
