Remake of a classic wildlife simulation game
WolfQuest: Anniversary Edition is an action game developed and published by eduweb. This animal simulation game lets players experience the life of a wild wolf in an ecological environment that was based on the Yellowstone National Park. It’s a remake of the original WolfQuest that was released back in 2013.
WolfQuest: Anniversary Edition will initially include the first episode of the WolfQuest game. Apart from the updated graphics that it will bring, it will also introduce various new features and content that were not included in the original release. An expansion is also in the works and will come later.
What’s changed?
The original WolfQuest game came out back in 2013, and it aimed to help players understand wolves and their role in nature. They were able to experience this by being virtually incarnated as a gray wolf themselves. It came out with a couple of episodes since its release but has been renamed as WolfQuest: Classic as development for its remake, WolfQuest: Anniversary Edition, was announced and began.
The Anniversary Edition comes with some notable graphical improvements while introducing some new features and additions of its own. Some of the things that you can expect are the additions of other wildlife animals like herds of elk, moose, beavers, and other prey. You’ll also be competing against other predators like cougars and coyotes over spoils and territories. You can call on your pack for help with more expressive actions and audible sounds.
Multiplayer is still present here and allows you to create game sessions with friends and do co-op missions together. Before you start diving in, just note the Early Access status of this release. As such, active development is still underway to finish and put out the rest of the game. Here’s to hoping that an exact release date for the release of the full game will be announced soon.
A more polished version of the original
In summary, WolfQuest: Anniversary Edition is shaping up to be quite an improvement over its predecessor. The graphical updates are appreciated, and the additional features and content only build upon the already great foundation of the original. If you get the chance, give this wildlife simulator a try.
