Do Monsters Respawn

The giant monsters, known as Kemono, are huge oversized beasts fuzed with the nature of the land in Wild Hearts. Every beast has its own unique area and mission for you to hunt. Unlike Monster Hunter you can not capture any of the Kemono creatures. For now, Wild Hearts is solely a hunt-to-kill monster game. That’s alright, you have a decent amount of monsters to hunt. However, if you’re looking to hunt down the same monster again and again… well you can.

It’s a bit more complex than Monster Hunter, however. Every Kemono beast is linked to a specific area and mission. So for you to fight them again you have to retake those missions. This is necessary because like Monster Hunter there are lots of gear and items you’ll need multiple monster parts for to make. Naturally, that means you can re-hunt the same creatures over and over to get more of their parts for items.

As Wild Hearts struggles with PC version issues and the game is still fairly new, it is unsure if there is a limit to how many or how often you can respawn and hunt a monster. There is likely not a very strict or small number attached to the respawning of a Kemono monster. If they don’t respawn by simply going back to where you hunt and slayed them last, just locate where you can restart the mission if that is what it takes. Regardless there is no doubt that eventually the beasts to come back and you can hunt and kill them all over again.
