See Wild Hearts S in Action on Nintendo Switch 2

Alright, so I stumbled upon this news about a game called Wild Hearts S — something about hunting beasts on the Nintendo Switch 2… and honestly, I couldn’t stop watching the 15-minute clip they shared. Now, I’m not even sure how I ended up there, but isn’t that just the internet for you?

This game’s by Omega Force, and they’re really diving into that ancient tech vibe. Picture this: you’re in a wild, fantastical world that screams feudal Japan, chasing these massive creatures that seem like they rolled right out of a nature documentary — but like, supercharged with crazy powers. I mean, how does that even work? Nature on steroids or something.

You can roll solo or get a group together, up to four of you, to tackle these beasties. They make it sound epic — crafting bits and bobs, trying to outsmart some giant critter. Sounds intense, right? Like one minute you’re making a spear, next thing you know, you’re in some strategic showdown. I’ll be honest, I’d probably get distracted and start building something useless, like a fort out of sticks. But hey, that’s just me.

And those beasts? Giants with a twist — packed with nature’s fury. They’re beautiful, terrifying — think Mother Nature but on a really bad day. Sometimes you might need a pal just to keep from getting squashed. Like, teamwork and all that.

Then there’s this thing called Karakuri — kinda like your toolkit of death. Blades, shields, even trickier stuff like traps. You’re taking these things and shifting the whole battlefield. Sometimes it’s like, “Who came up with this?” Other times, pure genius. And it sounds as if you’re MacGyver in ancient Japan, stitching things together on the fly.

So, there’s all this gear to mess with, too. You gather materials, create better weapons and armor — it’s like a never-ending hunt for the perfect outfit. Or maybe that’s just my fashion sense peeking out.

It’s dropping worldwide on the eShop and in stores July 25, 2025. Mark your calendar… or don’t. I might forget — dates are tricky, right?

Anyway, that’s the scoop. Go hunt some beasts. Or maybe just watch the trailer. Whatever floats your… Karakuri.
