![]() There’s not driving narrative in the game instead, you explore three central locations Colorado, Texas and Europe – each with two variants of maps to traverse.Ĭhoose either a male or female character, and then you set off on the hunt. Hunting Simulator 2, developed by Neopica and Published by NACON, it’s a first-person simulator for humans who fancy a slow-burner. So that you can officially hunt them, you need a licence and the appropriate weapon. Hiking through the wilderness, you’ll come across tracks of various species.

Admittedly it’s still fundamentally the same game and there’s added trophy glitches thrown in the mix, but other than the 4k uptick and SSD loading times, there’s not been any huge changes. In conclusion, Hunting Simulator 2 on PS5 is much the same game as the PS4 version from last year, but oddly we found ourselves hating it a bit less. It looks to be a campaign mode of sorts, but other than that, we don’t know when it’ll be available. Only upon selecting it, it says ‘Get “A Ranger’s Life” DLC to unlock the Ranger Mode’. We got dead excited that there was a new Ranger Mode available on the main menu. Nacon saw fit to include three sets of premium DLC on day one, plus a real beaut. We guess a dynamic water model wasn’t high on the list of things to do. On top of rivers only having one state of water speed, slow and tranquil, regardless of the obvious changes in inclines. We observed it rendering section by section like we weren’t supposed to notice. We spotted a nice little rendering glitch on a river in the Roosevelt Forest too. Then a whole load unlocked in a flurry after killing one poor unfortunate longhorned sheep. 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. Main PS5 / Reviews tagged hunting simulator / nacon / neopica by Ian
