Johnny's Hunt ability lets him track down Victims, making him a great killer to play when players use his strengths; here are some tips on how to do that.

Use Your Ability Frequently

The Hitchhiker is quite slow, but his ability is excellent for tracking down Victims. Therefore, while chasing down Victims might not be your greatest strength as Johnny, it's a good idea to use your ability frequently to help out your other teammates and pin down Victims' locations throughout the match.

Communicate Often

Because The Hitchhiker is a great tracker but isn't great in a chase, you'll need to communicate Victims' locations to other Family members if you want to take down the Victim team. Once you find footsteps, you can call out Victims' locations to the other Slaughter family members, allowing Leatherface or another strong chaser to take down the survivors.

Check Hiding Spots

As Johnny, the footsteps you follow will sometimes lead you to a dead-end - but, likely, the survivor is hiding nearby. For example, if footsteps lead up to a car, you might want to check under the hood for a Victim hiding underneath. There are many different possible places for Victims to hide, so check hiding spots as often as you can if you have reason to suspect a Victim might be hiding there.

Johnny is the best Slaughter family member when it comes to finding Victims hiding in sneaky locations, so be sure to use this to your advantage as much as possible.

Those are all of our favorite tips and tricks for playing Johnny in the Texas Chain Saw Massacre. He's a great killer to play if your playstyle is tracking down Victims and communicating with your team.
