Capcom confirms the date and time for a new Monster Hunter Wilds showcase, detailing the upcoming features and content of Title Update 1. After a huge launch, which saw plenty of player and sales numbers smashed, Monster Hunter Wilds is getting ready to expand again with its first major title update.
Following the major successes during its launch, Capcom has continued to keep Monster Hunter Wilds updated through patches and new content. The methods follow a similar cadence to previous entries like Monster Hunter Worlds and Rise, which also had their fair share of post-launch content as well. Alongside continued improvements to the core experience, Capcom recently launched new Event Quests, offering unique rewards for those able to complete them.
Monster Hunter Wilds' World is Even More Connected Than You Might Realize
One Monster Hunter Wilds players shares just how interconnected the map actually is, revealing surprising details about how massive it is.
In advance of its April release, Capcom has finally revealed a special showcase to reveal all the details and content coming to Monster Hunter Wilds in Title Update 1. While a dedicated release date is also expected to be revealed during this stream, Capcom did confirm that it will be covering the new content and features arriving in the major update, including the monster, Mizutsune. Capcom also recently confirmed a new high-level monster will also be added to the game, though it refrained from providing any additional details.
Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 Showcase Start Time
- March 25 at 10am ET/2pm GMT
Alongside the new hunts, the recently promoted Monster Hunter Wilds senior producer Ryozo Tsujimoto will be on hand to cover other elements of the update as well. One of the bigger reveals to this point is a brand-new multiplayer gathering hub, letting players meet up in a new social space to interact or cook before heading out. It's worth noting that the gathering hub is only available once the main campaign is finished, so players will need to wrap up the campaign before the update arrives to be ready for the gathering hub on day 1.
To keep players invested, Capcom continues to keep the game feeling fresh through limited-time in-game events as well as a recently announced Monster Hunter Wilds promotion. Players who create and link their Capcom ID to the platform they're playing the game on will get a free item box, filled with helpful items. In addition to various buffs and healing items, the box also contains Armor Spheres, a Silver egg, and 10 Well-done steaks to make adventuring in the Forbidden Lands a little easier.
