Way of the Hunter is a 2022 open world hunting game developed by Nine Rocks Games. The base gameplay is similar to the game theHunter: Call of the Wild, though Way of the Hunter puts a greater emphasis on game/herd management, tracking, long range shooting, as well as ballistics, in which the player not only has to keep track of bullet drop, but also making sure a fired shot has enough impact to down an animal. Remarkably, nearly all firearms and equipment, even ammunition, are modeled and named after real-world licensed equipment. The base storyline follows professional stuntman River Knox as he returns to his grandparents' hunting lodge in Idaho, as well as other adventures in Transylvania. The "Aurora Shores" DLC which released on February 23, 2023 follows wildlife trooper Jackie Mackovich in the wilderness of Alaska. The "Tikamoon Plains" DLC, which released on August 11, 2023, follows safari guide Malachi Burnett in South Africa.
