It’s really nice to smash the skulls of a couple of huge beasts. Wild Hearts promises exactly that in direct competition with Monster Hunter. From February 17th we will know whether the undertaking was successful. Now, some information about the hunting game related to offline gaming and microtransactions emerges. So much is anticipated: The statements of the developers should cause joy.
With Wild Hearts, EA and Koei Tecmo want to set fire to the top dog’s butt in Capcom’s Monster Hunter series. The giant beasts you hunt are called Kemono and are heavily influenced by Japanese folklore. In addition to some weapons, you also use karakuri, special devices that build walls and catapult you into the air.

Of course, Wild Hearts has to put up with a lot of questions aimed directly at its proximity to Monster Hunter. For example, what about microtransactions and post-release support. Upon release on February 17, 2023, there will be 20 Big Kemonos in the game. After the launch, the developers plan to add more beasts, completely free of charge. Microtransactions are not planned in any form. This was announced by Lewis, Executive Producer of the title, at an AMA on Reddit.
Of course, it will also be interesting to see if you can play Wild Hearts without an internet connection. The focus is clearly on cooperative hunts, and there is even crossplay. But if the network fails, then you still want to hit a few Kemonos on the cap. Here, too, Lewis has positive news, offline gambling will definitely be possible.
So, according to the previously released information, everything is looking good for the new brand. Of course, it will still be exciting to see how much fun the title ultimately makes. The graphics modes that were recently revealed give some cause for concern.
