Wild Hearts: how to play Katana, combos, gameplay guide?

In Wild Hearts, the Karakuri Katana is a much lighter and faster sword. It can deliver fast blows or slower but destructive blows. It strikes the perfect balance between speed and power. It is one of the most mobile weapons in its movements and repositioning.

Fury of Blows (consumes stamina) - Light hits followed, then R2 / RT or F at any time

 

Medium Combo - Average Strikes Tracked

 

Forward Strike - Medium strikes while moving forward

 

Unbound Mode - R2 / RT / F + square / X or left click at the same time

 

End or deactivate Unbound Mode - R2 / RT / F + circle / B or right click at the same time

 

Forward Strike will be very useful for repositioning yourself behind the monster.

 

Despite the speed of the Katana's hits, they wo n't inflict that much damage, it's the Medium Combo and its last hit that will inflict high damage and Unbound Mode.

 

The Katana has its Unbound Mode, it will inflict more damage, have more range and modify certain combos.

 

Unbound Mode

 

While it has fast attacks and several combos, it is the Unbound Mode that makes this weapon so special, after filling the blue gauge by hitting the Kemono, you can activate it with R2 / RT / F + square / X or left click.

 

The sword will then transform into a relaxed blade with spikes, acting like a chain, boosting its damage, range and combos.
