Exciting Monster Hunter Wilds Update Brings New Challenges & Festivities

Get ready, hunters! Capcom has announced Monster Hunter Wilds’ much-anticipated ‘Title Update 1’ slotted for April 4. With new monsters, challenges, and festive gatherings in the Grand Hub Area, adventurers have plenty to look forward to this spring.

Enter Mizutsune: The Bubble Fox Wyvern

Fans of Monster Hunter Rise will cheer as the elegant but deadly Mizutsune makes its debut in the Forbidden Lands. Unlocked at Hunter Rank 21, players face unique challenges with its graceful attack patterns and immobilizing bubbles. Skilled hunters should prepare for this leviathan by consulting Kanya in the Scarlet Forest. Word is, this fight will test even seasoned hunters, so ready your gear!

Major Additions: Arena and Challenge Quests

Capcom’s offering includes not just new monsters but also novel quest types like Arena and Challenge Quests. Smaller groups can team up for these targeted missions, while larger parties tackle Free Challenge Quests without equipment constraints. Better yet, engage in cross-platform multiplayer for coop missions, climbing the leaderboards, and earning special pendants. According to Gematsu, these updates breathe fresh excitement into the Monster Hunter experience.

The Grand Hub: A Place of Celebration

Elevate your game at the Grand Hub—a massive communal area where hunters can try new activities like Barrell Bowling or enjoy the Diva’s nightly performance. Unlockable at Hunter Rank 16, this hub also features exhibitions like the Expedition Record Board, showcasing global Arena Quest times. From April 22 to May 6, the Festival of Accord: Blossomdance brings colorful changes, unique equipment, and surprises around every corner!

Returning Hits and New Collaborations

The festivity extends with returning classic gestures for every adventurer. Free downloadable content adds spice to your experience, with new outfits for handler Alma and more. Furthermore, exciting collaborations are teased, providing fresh gameplay twists. Keep your eyes peeled for more announcements!

With a second free Title Update set for this summer featuring Lagiacrus, players are in for a thrilling ride throughout the year. Monster Hunter Wilds is available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam. Catch the new trailer and get ready for adventure!
