Capcom's Monster Hunter series is unbeatable in its domain. With nearly 90 million units sold in close to two decades, the progenitor of the Hunter Role Playing Game genre is king. But, this doesn't mean others will stop trying.
Case in point, Koei Tecmo and EA's Wild Hearts. The current-gen exclusive (and PC) game will be available to play starting on February 17 in a lot of territories. However, if you're curious to find out why others are getting a chance to play Wild Hearts ahead of you, don't worry, we're here to help you sort things out.
Because Electronic Arts is publishing Wild Hearts, it's available to play via EA Play and Game Pass Ultimate. Furthermore, EA confirmed some time ago that subscribers can enjoy an early access 10-hour trial of Wild Hearts starting on February 13. If you upgrade to EA Play Pro, you'll be able to play Wild Hearts as well as other EA titles at launch as long as you have an active subscription.
At $5 a month or $30 a year, EA Play is a steal if you'd like to give Wild Hearts a try and check out what other games EA has to offer.
