Resulting from a collaboration between Koei Tecmo and Electronic Arts, Wild Hearts intends to pull out of the game by offering the big AAA hunting game of the year. Only a few days left before seeing if the title can play in the big leagues and grope the Monster Hunter juggernaut. In the meantime, he offers us a superb cinematic in CGI which presents his universe.

If you missed the many gameplay footage distilled recently and throughout 2022, this superb CGI cinematic can serve as a good summary. Wild Hearts is coming soon and intends to offer a convincing alternative to Capcom’s Monster Hunter which benefits from a monster monopoly on the genre. The software is still overseen by the Omega Force studio known for the various games Dynasty Warriors, but also for the series of hunting games, Toukiden. Thanks to this experience and the support of EA, Koei Tecmo is counting on this AAA to rush into the breach opened by Monster Hunter World.
From our first approach with the game last October, it certainly has the potential to achieve this. In this cinematic you will therefore be able to admire the various monsters in the game called Kemono. They take the form of animals corrupted by nature. As a hunter from the world of Azuma, you will have to hunt them to protect the humans of Minato city. In addition to the weapons offered, you benefit from a special power that allows you to use an ancient technology, the Karakuri. Thanks to it, you will be able to deploy lots of gear to fight the Kemono, but also to make your life easier between games.
Wild Hearts will be released on February 17 on PS5, Xbox Series and PC via Steam, EA App and Epic Games Store. Also note that cross-play will be part of the launch.
