The much-anticipated mobile version of Way of the Hunter: Wild America has now arrived, courtesy of Nine Rocks Games. As the first mobile entry in the Way of the Hunter series, this game transports players to the heart of the North American Pacific Northwest, immersing them in the lush landscapes of the Nez Perce Valley, USA.
Track Deer, Wolves, and Other Animals Through Dense Pine Forests
In Way of the Hunter: Wild America, realism is at the forefront. Animals exhibit lifelike behaviors, reacting with the skittishness and awareness seen in their natural habitats. They are part of a dynamic ecosystem that shifts in response to your actions.
As you hunt, you'll engage with a vibrant and responsive environment. The game emphasizes ethical hunting and delves into the narrative of a family's hunting business, offering players a chance to explore the highs and lows of this endeavor.
To succeed, you'll need to interpret animal signs, analyze blood splatters, and scrutinize your shots with the help of a rewindable bullet camera. The 'Hunter Sense' feature can be a valuable tool, highlighting essential details, though you have the option to disable it and rely solely on your instincts.
The game boasts an array of licensed equipment from renowned brands like Bushnell, Federal, Leupold, Primos, Remington, and Steyr Arms. An in-game economy allows you to sell meat, purchase upgraded gear, acquire new hunting passes, or adorn your trophy stands.
Way of the Hunter: Wild America Has Many Options
With dozens of animal species, each with unique behavior models, the game offers a rich variety of wildlife. Antlers and horns are procedurally generated, reflecting the age and fitness of each animal.
The game features a complete 24-hour day and night cycle, along with changing weather and wind patterns, and realistic bullet physics. A photo mode lets you capture stunning moments, such as a bear crossing a river at dawn or a herd of elk silhouetted against the mountains.
You can choose to play with a gamepad or utilize the optimized mobile touch controls, tailored to your preferred setup. Way of the Hunter: Wild America is now available on Android for $9.99, and you can download it from the Google Play Store.
