Press release:
Slovakia / Vienna, Austria – January 29th, 2026: The time has come to lift the curtain on Way of the Hunter 2, formerly known as Next Hunting Adventure. The next evolution of hunting simulations is built on a brand-new technical foundation and is designed to deliver the ultimate hunting game experience for years to come.

Developed by Nine Rocks Games, Way of the Hunter 2 introduces a loyal hunting companion to aid you on your hunts. Your dog is the perfect tracker, helping you locate animal signs or follow the trails of fleeing animals. Through constant training and exercise, your companion will improve over time, learning to reliably respond to your commands — becoming not only an invaluable tool in the field, but also your trusted adventure buddy.

The first hunting ground in Way of the Hunter 2 is set in the vast Canadian wilderness, home to big game such as moose, elk, bears, and bison, as well as smaller animals like rabbits, turkeys, and a variety of other bird species. As the new hunter in town, the game’s story takes you across two breathtaking environments, where you’ll assist a local warden in investigating unusual behavior within the moose population.

A vastly improved bullet camera allows you to analyze each shot in detail, helping you refine your technique and achieve the perfect shot. The new Hunting Lodge serves as a central hub where you can showcase your trophies, unlock important upgrades, and plan your next adventures. Each territory features its own unique lodge, allowing you to visualize your achievements across every hunting ground.

Authenticity is essential for any simulation. Way of the Hunter 2 features gear from more than 10 real-world brand partners, ranging from hunting rifles and high-tech equipment to apparel, delivering a deeply immersive and realistic hunting experience.
