The game features 96 different hunting missions and 24 competitions to participate in. Players can also take part in five career hunting slams, where they must hunt several species over the course of a week. The game includes authentic Cabela's equipment, such as tree stands, calls, and attractants, to enhance the player's experience.
However, players must also adhere to real-life hunting regulations, including bag limits, hunting times, and restrictions on certain species. If they fail to comply, they will be penalized and their progress will be affected, potentially ending the game.
