Way of the Hunter: Wild America brings open-world hunting to iOS and Android, coming soon

The hunting sub-genre of shooters caters to a unique niche, particularly those who enjoy the thrill of hunting in the Americas. If you're intrigued by this experience, the upcoming mobile game, Way of the Hunter: Wild America, might just be the perfect fit for you. Developed by THQ Nordic and brought to mobile by Handy Games, this game is set to launch soon on both iOS and Android platforms.

In Way of the Hunter: Wild America, players will immerse themselves in the vast wilderness of the Pacific Northwest, using an array of authentic hunting weapons, from rifles to bows. The game offers a sprawling 55 square miles of terrain to explore, providing ample space to track and hunt realistically simulated wildlife. Features like the new Hunter Sense and detailed animal behavior simulations enhance the authenticity and engagement of the hunting experience.

While the hunting genre may appeal to a specific audience, bringing Way of the Hunter to mobile could attract a broader fanbase. It's particularly appealing to those who might not have access to a console or PC but own a smartphone or tablet. This move could be especially relevant for dads and uncles who enjoy hunting but prefer the convenience of mobile gaming.

THQ Nordic has made efforts to streamline the more tedious aspects of hunting, and it's hoped that this mobile port will reflect those improvements. Whether this will capture a wider audience remains to be seen, but the potential is certainly there.
