The much-anticipated mobile version of Way of the Hunter: Wild America has finally arrived, courtesy of Nine Rocks Games. This marks the first mobile installment in the acclaimed Way of the Hunter series, immersing players in the lush landscapes of the North American Pacific Northwest, specifically the Nez Perce Valley in the USA.
Track Deer, Wolves, and Other Animals Through Dense Pine Forests
The game prides itself on its commitment to realism. Animals in Way of the Hunter: Wild America exhibit behaviors true to their wild counterparts—they're skittish, observant, and integral to a dynamic ecosystem that evolves with your actions. As you hunt, you engage with a living, breathing environment that responds to your presence. The game emphasizes ethical hunting and weaves a compelling narrative around the challenges and triumphs of a family-run hunting business.
To succeed, players must master the art of tracking by reading animal signs, analyzing blood splatters, and reviewing shots with a rewindable bullet camera. The innovative Hunter Sense feature highlights crucial details, though players can opt to disable it for a more authentic experience relying solely on their instincts.
The game boasts an array of licensed equipment from renowned brands like Bushnell, Federal, Leupold, Primos, Remington, and Steyr Arms. Additionally, there's a robust in-game economy where players can sell meat, purchase upgraded gear, acquire new hunting passes, or adorn their trophy stands.
Way of the Hunter: Wild America Has Many Options
With dozens of animal species, each with unique natural behavior models, Way of the Hunter: Wild America offers a rich and varied hunting experience. The animals' antlers and horns are procedurally generated, reflecting their age and fitness levels.
The game features a full 24-hour day and night cycle, dynamic weather and wind conditions, and realistic bullet physics, enhancing the immersion. Players can also capture the beauty of the wilderness with a photo mode, perfect for snapping shots of a bear crossing a river at sunrise or a herd of elk silhouetted against the mountains.
Whether you prefer using a gamepad or the optimized mobile touch controls, Way of the Hunter: Wild America caters to your preferred setup. The game is now available on Android for $9.99 and can be downloaded from the Google Play Store.
