Our take on Hunting Simulator 2
The open-world presentation may suggest a broader wilderness experience than the core scope provides. The game centers on tracking and hunting 33 species across three named regions, with variety coming mainly from equipment, environments, and dog breeds.
What is Hunting Simulator 2?
Hunting Simulator 2 is a hunting game set in the plains of Colorado, the Texan desert, and the forests of Eastern Europe.
The game presents these locations as vast open worlds covering over 6 square miles. Players track 33 animal species by locating signs and following trails, then select weapons, accessories, and clothing for each hunt. Hunting dogs can assist with tracking, including Labrador Retrievers, German Shorthaired Pointers, and Beagles, each with specific hunting attributes. The equipment selection includes more than 160 items from brands such as Browning, Winchester, Bushnell, Kryptek, and Verney-Carron. Animal behavior and artificial intelligence are presented as realistic, and aiming affects the condition of the hunted animal.
