Preview: 'Wild Hearts’ is a 'Princess Mononoke’ take on the monster hunting genre


Ragetail is a giant rat with a budding fruit at the end of its tail. — Electronic Arts/TNS

When I heard that Electronic Arts was publishing a new hunting game, I immediately thought camo, Bowie knife and hunting rifle. I expected something akin to Deer Hunter. What the company showed and what I played was completely different.

The reason for that is Wild Hearts is developed by Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force. The Japanese team is known more for Dynasty Warriors and efforts in that mould. It’s not exactly Big Buck Hunter from the arcades. In fact, the new project is different from anything that EA and Koei Tecmo has done before.
