For me, personally not being a hunter I didn’t realise how strict the rules are when it comes to hunting. You’ll need to think about wind direction, the sounds you’re making and also the distance between you and the animals you’re hunting. So with it being a simulator running around all the time isn’t possible and you will find yourself walking everywhere for the most part and have to take everything into consideration while hunting. This may sound weird but after playing it for a few hours it really makes sense. So the first thing you have to quickly adjust to with Hunting Simulator 2 is that it is a simulator and not a game. Each of these areas has different animals available for you to hunt and come with their own unique environments that add to the games setting and overall feel. Once completed you can go off into six different locations that are grouped into three geographical areas, these being Colorado, Texas and Europe which each have two areas for you to go and hunt. You start the game with a basic tutorial that shows you the fundamental and give you your first dog company which is a Beagle. You can choose between a male or female hunter and from there begin your journey into Hunting Simulator 2. With it being a simulation game there isn’t much of a story going for it unless you make one for yourself.

I was playing the PlayStation 4 version of the game so without further delay let’s jump into the main review. That is of course if you choose to take it on the hunt with you.

The idea of Hunting animals and having a dog help you out on paper sounded like a lot of fun but sadly once I started playing it was merely full of bland gameplay with the addition of a dog by your side. However, after seeing the trailer in the PlayStation store I was drawn to its open-world areas, its beautiful scenery and above all its loveable canine companies. At least I can do it in the comfort of my own home and know that no animals were harmed in the making of this review… well that’s if you don’t class virtual ones. Right straight off the bat let me just say I’m not a hunter, so going into Hunting Simulator 2 was going to be my first experience with a hunting simulation game and killing animals in the wild.
