The hunting sub-genre of shooters caters to a unique niche, and the upcoming mobile release of Way of the Hunter: Wild America is poised to captivate enthusiasts who relish hunting experiences in the Americas. If you've ever been curious about diving into this genre, this game might just be the perfect opportunity to explore it on your mobile device.

Way of the Hunter: Wild America brings THQ Nordic's acclaimed PC and console hunting simulator to both iOS and Android platforms, courtesy of Handy Games. With a wide array of authentic hunting weapons at your disposal—from rifles to bows—you'll embark on a thrilling journey to track and hunt a diverse range of Pacific Northwest wildlife.

The game offers a vast expanse of 55 square miles for you to explore and stalk your prey. This open terrain is complemented by realistically-simulated animal behaviors, the innovative Hunter Sense feature, and more, ensuring an immersive hunting experience.

While the hunting genre may have a limited audience, Way of the Hunter's transition to mobile is likely to attract fans, particularly those who enjoy hunting but may not have access to a console or PC. Many avid hunters, such as dads and uncles, are likely to own a smartphone or tablet, making this an accessible way to enjoy their favorite pastime.

Whether this mobile version will capture a broader audience remains to be seen. However, THQ Nordic has made significant efforts to streamline the more tedious aspects of hunting, and it's hoped that this mobile port will reflect those improvements.
