EA’s Monster Hunter-like has no plans for microtransactions, all post-launch content will be free.
In a Reddit Ask Me Anything this week, the developers of Wild Hearts stated that they already have plans for post-launch updates, and they’ll all be free.
“All post launch contents will be free, including new Kemono and more!
We don’t have any plans to feature MTX,” they answered in one of the AMA’s most-asked questions.
“Kemono” are the jumbo-sized monsters of Wild Hearts, which you’ll be hunting and trapping in an action game that obviously owes a lot to Capcom’s Monster Hunter.
The monetization also seems to be following Capcom’s lead: with the recent Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter Rise, Capcom added free monsters and quests for many months, without ever charging for specific battles.
If anything, though, Wild Hearts sounds more generous: there are more than 200 bits of cosmetic DLC for Monster Hunter Rise, while Wild Hearts’ devs, Koei Tecmo, say they have no plans to offer microtransactions.
