TOTAL IMMERSION AND BRAND-NEW GAMEPLAY MECHANICS
With over fifteen years of experience, NACON Studio Ghent offers players an authentic hunting experience, exploring vibrant nature across Colorado and Texas and hunting over 35 animal species with the help of their faithful four-legged companion.
The 3rd iteration of the series, which has already gathered more than 2 million players worldwide, Hunting Simulator 3 retains the core features appreciated by the community while offering new gameplay features and improvements—all developed on Unreal Engine 5, revealing the full richness and beauty of the game’s environments:
- The revolutionary “SimFauna” system: Hunting Simulator 3 introduces a unique, dynamic ecosystem. Animals react realistically to their environment and the player’s actions: they reproduce, age, and evolve naturally in their habitat, ensuring unpredictable and always different hunting sessions.
- Two massive American territories: Explore the plains and forests of Colorado and Texas through gigantic open maps of 100 km² each. To traverse these wild lands, players can rely on 5 officially licensed all-terrain vehicles (Ford, Kawasaki, Polaris).
- The hunter’s best friend: For the first time, several hunting dog breeds*, each with specific behaviors and skills, can accompany players. Working with your faithful companion will be essential to effectively track different types of game: small, big game, predators, or waterfowl.
- A high-end arsenal: Customize your gear with nearly 75 weapons and accessories modeled with surgical precision, from the world’s leading brands (Remington®, Beretta®, Winchester®, Browning®).
*One dog breed will be included in the game at launch. A free update will introduce new dog breeds after the game’s release.
