Excited to get my butt kicked by a giant shrew

Is Wild Hearts on Game Pass? – Answered

Unfortunately, Wild Hearts isn’t going to be on the Game Pass, though it’s easy to see why you might think it was. Atomic Hearts has announced it will be coming to Game Pass.

But it’s not all bad news. If you’re curious about this fantastical hunting game and want to see if Wild Pass is worth the $62 price tag, you can play up to 10 hours of it for free. This demo is available through EA Play, and if you have Xbox it’s as easy as searching up Wild Hearts in the Microsoft Store, selecting Wild Hearts, then selecting the EA Play option. Wild Hearts will immediately being to install. This demo released on February 14 (Happy Valentine’s Day, gamers), and if you’re wondering if progress carries over, it does!

And with Wild Heart’s multiplayer option, this will give you a chance to get ahead of your friends before the game even releases.

Personally, I’m excited to spend my Valentine’s Day crafting giant exploding shuriken which I can then hurl at giant elemental boars. And if you find that the Wild Hearts demo is scratching that hunting-crafting-Monster Hunter itch, you can then choose to buy it on PlayStation 5, Microsoft Windows, and Xbox Series X and Series S for $69.99. It will release on February 17, 2023, at 12:00 ET.
