Predator: Soon the Hunt Will Begin is an action game developed and published by Pack-In-Video for the Famicom in 1988. In Japan, the game is known as Schwarzenegger Predator (シュワルツェネッガー プレデター?). At that time, Activision owned the rights to publish software based on the Predator movie license in the United States. While they published Predator for several popular home computer systems, they licensed Pack-In-Video's game and published it for the NES. Pack-In-Video made a very similar game for the MSX, but it utilizes a different system of non-scrolling stages.
