In 2025, Capcom will release Monster Hunter Wilds, an open-world game that is the latest addition to the popular Monster Hunter series. The game was first announced at The Game Awards 2023 and was shown off in a new gameplay trailer during PlayStation State of Play.
The trailer featured a diverse cast of characters exploring different environments filled with monsters, showcasing the variety of landscapes players can expect to encounter. It also included classic Monster Hunter battles, with a character utilizing a wide range of weapons in intense combat scenarios.
As the Monster Hunter series approaches its 20th anniversary in 2024, fans have enjoyed numerous successful titles across various platforms, including tabletop games. While the popular Monster Hunter: World (2018) and Monster Hunter: Rise (2021) were action-adventure games, they did not feature open-world gameplay. With Monster Hunter Wilds introducing a fully open world, players can anticipate a new level of exploration across expansive maps and diverse biomes.
Although an exact release date for Monster Hunter Wilds in 2025 has yet to be announced, it is confirmed to be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X. Fans eagerly await the opportunity to immerse themselves in the vast and thrilling world of Monster Hunter Wilds when it finally launches.
