Hunting simulator 26/2/2023 Tracked a hundred animal tracks with our dog. After a couple of early trophies, we fulfilled several conditions but no unlocks happened. That’s not to mention the glitchy trophy conditions that have been added to the equation here. Realism would dictate you don’t have a mobile phone signal in the wilds, but at least grant us some comforts. Heck, this is still a videogame after all. Why not concede to players that you can buy a licence to shoot a specific animal in the field. We still came up short with missing licences. Thankfully these both happened on the same jaunt, after we’d fully kitted out ourselves with two weapons, accessories and all the licences that we could manage in the first location. ![]() Then another we shot and despite our dog having sniffed it out, the cadaver remained sight unseen. Our dog swam around it having a whale of a time. We shot a duck and it floated just a few feet away from us. The fact you get penalised when you can’t retrieve your quarry is still a problem. Ultimately this is the same game as released back in June last year, so the same failings remain. Hearing an animal cry emanate from the controller for example. Neopica haven’t done anything with the DualSense other than basic rumble. Sadly, the only thing it shares is a publisher in Nacon, rather than the developer in Kylotonn. We hoped that haptics would have been front and centre, just as they were for the wonderful WRC9 PS5 port. We went back to the PS4 version to compare and it’s remarkable how static it was when we reviewed it previously. The wind has a discernible effect on grass with it visibly blowing the blades around. Upon loading HS2 on PS5 we were immediately struck by the obvious loading speed increase thanks to the much-vaunted SSD Speedway (so called by my kid due to Astro’s Playroom). Does it warrant a re-release on the console of choice of the discerning scalper? Well, yes and no. As a result, it was with no small level of trepidation that this reviewer revisited it on PS5. ![]() We reviewed Hunting Simulator 2 on PS4 a little while back and came away generally unimpressed.
