WILD HEARTS™ is a twist on the hunting genre where technology gives you a fighting chance against giant nature-infused beasts.
For a while, none could stand against the Kemono's overwhelming might. But hope arrives in the form of a formidable hunter, armed with deadly weapons and ancient technology called Karakuri that could turn the tide of battle.

HUNT GIANT NATURE-INFUSED BEASTS
Survive their attacks, learn from their behaviors, and use your Karakuri and your weapons in combination to cut these creatures down to size.

CRAFT YOUR HUNTING GROUNDS
You are the only one in Azuma able to wield the Karakuri technology. This ancient tech enables you to adapt your environment into creative hunting grounds ideal for taking down the giant Kemono.

HUNT IN A PACK, OR BE A LONE WOLF
In WILD HEARTS you can face the Kemono alone or unite with up to two friends (or fellow players) to stalk and hunt your prey.

The discount is for Game Pass Ultimate. It shows up for me as I have GPU.
I played for about 15min until I had to do something else, just based on that it felt very unrefined, like a 360 game they pulled from the vault and barely optimized. But it is in GPU so I plan on playing it some more when I get the time.

Metacritic reviews pretty good, biggest complaint seems to be what I immediately noticed: https://www.metacritic.com/game/w...x-series-x
Reviews in the xbox store are generally very positive. I might grab it with the Comcast $15 credit.
So edgy!

Shows full price for me, even after adding to cart. Do you have to use a coupon code or something?

I would grab this now while It's still at $8.99. Even though this game will end support( no new content etc) you will still be able to play the single player mode and co op online. Also I'm pretty sure it's one of those pricing mistakes because the standard and deluxe (karakuri) upgrade to the base game costs more than twice the money than just the add-on instead of the complete edition. It's one of those situations where it's non sensical to buy either the base game or the upgrade separately and they do a price adjustment after realizing the pricing makes no sense.

So I just bought this for around $22 and I felt it was a steal compared to everything else on the market (digitally). So... I haven't played it yet, but seeing this price blew me away. Again, 2 thumbs up on this price, I can't speak to the actual gameplay.

A $9 turd is, at the end of the day, still just a turd. And in this case they didn't even bother to polish it.

Even with GP I think this game is likely still dead online. Live service games only work during launch windows and have been the new MMO gold rush that companies chase and fail to capture because the kings were already crowned long ago.

I picked this up at a rummage sale 3 months back or so for $20 and frankly, I think that I got ripped off. For $8.99, it's a worthwhile buy for anyone that thinks it looks interesting but I wouldn't go in with high expectations. For me, it felt like a cheap Monster Hunter ripoff. I didn't enjoy much of the gameplay and the graphics were definitely on the lower end. I gave it up after a few hours and started up Hogwarts which was a much better experience.

If you are on GPU play the trial version to get an idea. If you are a monster hunter fan you'll get something out of it at this price.
