If your chief complaint regarding Monster Hunter Wilds was that the game is too easy, you should give Elden Ring a try. This 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Game Of The Year winner is likely already🎀 on your radar: it was one of the most hyped games to cꦫome out in the 2020s. It lets you hunt giant crustaceans, so any Monster Hunter fan will feel right at home.

Elden Ring plays a bit differently, however: it's a lot more challenging, and emphasizes defence rather than offence. Just like Monster Hunter Wilds, you need to master control over your character's movement before you can e♑xcel. This game is sure to give you a challenge, as well as a brilliantly dark world to immerse yourself in.

Most monster-hunting games focus on melee combat: while Monster Hunter Wilds has an assortment of ranged weapons, there's the distinct feeling that blades and axes is the way to do it. Remnant 2, on the other hand𓆏, focuses on ranged weapons. You can carry two guns and one melee weapon, so it's clear what the focus is here.

Great games are often born from simple ideas - in the case of Toukiden, that idea was to put samurai in Monster Hunter. This giant-slaying title takes place in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:feudal Japan, which led to it drawing comparisons to Nioh,♏ 🍎but it's closer to Monster Hunter. Originally a PSP title, Toukiden was remastered for the PS Vita, PS4, and PC as Toukiden: Kiwami.

Toukiden: Kiwami was followed up by Toukiden 2, which introduced the ability to control monsters yourself, as well as a grapple-hook mechanic. While Toukidಌen is a niche series, it has a unique setting and is worth checking out if you want your Monster Hunting with some feudal flair.

After Bandai Namco's God Eater series concluded on a dour note, the studio turned its attention to Dark Souls-esque gameplay while still retaining the monster hunting sensibilities of its previous s𝔉eries.

Code Vein drew mixed critical reviews but became a favourite with fans. Its gloomy anime art s𒆙tyle, boss-centric gameplay, and challenging arenas meant it appealed to fans of both Dark Souls and Monster Hunter. Though the game's focus on plot over gameplay was criticizeꦦd, it should do all right for a Monster Hunter Wilds fan.

Attack on Titan needs no introduction: it was one of the most iconic anime series of the 2010s. The series spawned a 🗹few video game adaptations. Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle is the most definitive one. It includes the content of the first title, as well as retelling more chapters from the manga. It also allows you to create your own custom char🧜acter.

AOT 2 perfectly captures the joy of movement that the ODM gear inspi▨res. You can fly around large open spaces freely while engaging with Titans. The combat is satisfying, and the cutscenes are faithful to the anime.

Developer Omega Force is best-known for its 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dynasty Warriors titles, but the studio has a fondness for monster hunting too. In 2023, the studio collaborated with EA to publish Wild Hearts, an action RPG set in a fantasy world. Much like in Mon⭕ster Hunter Wilds, you battleꦗ giant beasts in large, open arenas.

Wild Hearts isꦰn't truly open-world, but it is still grand in scope. The game has a unique building mechanic where you can create platforms to jump off of to fight large creatures more effectively, as well as pass through some platforming sequences. The game also has a co-op mode for up to three people at once.

If you're a series veteran, you'll probably already have played Monster Hunter Wilds. But for seriওes beginners, Monster Hunter Rise is one of the best games to try after they're done with Wilds. The game is faster and more arcade-like in its pacing, without being too difficult.

God Eater is the closest any series has come to dethroning Monster Hunter: the PSP titles provided a viable alternative to Capcom's series, with faster gameplay and smaller arenas. The games have a beautiful cel-shaded 3D ani꧑me art style, and a story that far outpaces anything🙈 Monster Hunter has ever achieved - including Wilds.

Set in a desolate world ruled by the Aragami, G🎃od Eater sees you holding out athumanity's last bastion and fighting back with biopunk augmentations. By your side are a few trusted allies - tragic losses in the making. God Eater and its sequel form a brilliant two-part series with some recurring characters; the first game also received an anime adaptation by Ufotable. The games were remastered with new content for the PS Vita, PS4 and PC.
