EA’s New Multiplayer Monster-Hunting Game Wild Hearts Launches On PC And Consoles

first foray into the monster-hunting genre and offers a unique twist to the formula with the addition of technologically advanced ancient weaponry.

“Wild Hearts takes place in Azuma, a fantasy landscape inspired by feudal Japan, that is now rampaged by the once peaceful Kemono – altering their environment at the cost of citizens’ lives,” reads the launch press release. “The Kemono range from plant-infused squirrels to the massive Kingtusk wild boar. After a dreadful fight with the winter wolf Deathstalker, players become bearers of a life-sustaining technology and are compelled to restore balance across the region.”

Wild Hearts also comes with full cross-play from the get-go and is now available on EA’s Origin platform, Steam, the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S with a $69.99 price tag. EA Play subscribers can also take the game for a spin with a 10-hour free trial.

“In Wild Hearts, players journey through Azuma as a lone wolf or pack-hunt with up to two friends thanks to the game’s co-op and crossplay features across all platforms. Players can expand their battle plans and go on special missions while pack hunting, other hunters in the world or take on Kemono on their own.”
