The hunting sub-genre of shooters is indeed unique, catering to a specific niche of enthusiasts who enjoy the thrill of hunting in the Americas. For those intrigued by this experience, the upcoming mobile game, Way of the Hunter: Wild America, developed by THQ Nordic and published by Handy Games, might be the perfect opportunity to dive into this world. Set to release soon on both iOS and Android, this game brings the essence of THQ Nordic's recent PC and console hit to your mobile devices.
In Way of the Hunter: Wild America, players will utilize a range of authentic hunting tools, from rifles to bows, to track and hunt various Pacific Northwest wildlife. The game offers an expansive 55 square miles of terrain to explore, providing ample space to stalk your prey. This vast open world is enriched with realistically-simulated animal behaviors, ensuring a challenging and immersive experience. Additionally, the introduction of the new Hunter Sense feature enhances your ability to track and understand the natural environment.
While the hunting genre may appeal to a limited audience, bringing Way of the Hunter to mobile devices could attract a broader fanbase. Many avid hunters, such as dads and uncles who might not own a console or PC, are likely to have access to smartphones or tablets. This mobile version could provide them with a convenient way to enjoy hunting simulations on the go.
THQ Nordic has made efforts to streamline the often tedious aspects of hunting, and it's hoped that this attention to detail will be evident in the mobile port. Whether this will captivate a wider audience remains to be seen, but the potential is certainly there.
