Omega Force’s Monster-Hunter-inspired Wild Hearts is just around the corner, and the reviews are looking good.
Only announced in September last year, Wild Hearts comes from the studio best known for the Dynasty Warriors series, with EA on publishing duties. The game is obviously quite similar to Monster Hunter in its core concept, with reviews painting a strong picture of the latest entry into the growing genre. Some reviews have questioned whether Monster Hunter fans can make the switch, or if it’s something that will work for new fans, but it still offers a strong and unique take.
GameSpot’s Wild Hearts review also found the game to be a great experience, giving it an 8/10, writing, “Whatever weapon you choose, Wild Hearts’ action is thrilling if familiar. There’s a palpable sense of weight behind each weapon swing, and you need to consider when to attack so you’re not locked into an animation when you’re forced to roll out of danger.”
