The free update also brings a new talisman skill, and quest, as well as a range of improvements and bug fixes that should address some performance issues.This new Kemono Hellfire Laharback is a powerful variant of the base game’s Lavarback, which players must prevent from wreaking havoc before everything on the Natsukodachi Isle reduces to ash.

It will allow players to access additional quests that are added via content updates. The development team also provided a breakdown of the update, saying that some performance issues found across all platforms should be fixed from now on. For instance, an issue that prevented players from receiving their rewards after hunting giant kemono has been addressed. Besides, players can now glance at their full list of skills equipped during armor creation, weapon creation, and armor modification.
The update also fixed an issue that made it possible to dodge immediately after the Full-Body Slam or Full-Body Cleave when using the Karakuri staff. The number of inherited skills for some weapons has been increased, including Crystal Bow, Demon Grass Bow, Nacreous Icicle Maul, and Demon Grass Karakuri Staff. Players can no longer open the menu when they’re near death, nor can they select to retreat from the hunt when there are one or more players assisting during online co-op. If you’d like to find out every adjustment and bug fix included in the update, you can check out the patch noteslisted on the official website.
Omega Force also reiterated that the second content update will be released on March 23, providing players with a new Grimstalker armor and weapon upon their first successful hunt. Lastly, even more Kemono are also on their way to Azuma in April. Wild Hearts is available now on Xbox Series X|S, Playstation 5, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
