　　Wild Hearts is now available globally on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Here's what our very own Francesco de Meo had to say about this Monster Hunter rival.

　　After completing the main campaign in around 45 hours, I can say with confidence that Wild Hearts holds itself together quite well. While the similarities with the Monster Hunter series are undeniable, I feel Omega Force managed to twist the formula enough to provide an incredibly engaging experience that can stand on its own and that most fans of the genre will surely enjoy. Performance issues aside, Wild Hearts is a great start for a new IP and one of the best games ever developed by Omega Force.
