Wild Hearts is getting its official release on February 17, 2023, for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It’s one of the most anticipated releases of the month and will be competing with the likes of Hogwarts Legacy, Atomic Heart, Returnal PC, and Like a Dragon: Ishin!

The game promises to offer an exciting and immersive experience as players embark on quests to hunt down and defeat formidable creatures. The unique style of combat and mechanics set it apart from other games in the same genre, so players can expect an exciting adventure as they explore the game's vast open world.

The RPG will be set in the land of Azyuma, which is a fictional world that is heavily inspired by Feudal Japan. The premise of the story starts with Azuma falling into ruin as it starts getting overrun by incredibly large beasts known as Kemono.

In Wild Hearts, players will take on the role of a hunter who has the unique ability to wield ancient weapons made of Karakuri technology. It’s these weapons that are the most effective against the Kemono in the game.

Additionally, Azuma will be split into four regions, with each harboring a specific element based on a different season. Hence, there is bound to be a lot of diversity when it comes to Kemono designs for each region, the elements they fuse with, and the type of terrain that they manipulate.
