Hunters, prepare for battle! Capcom has officially announced Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1, set to launch on April 4, 2025. This free update expands the game with new monsters, quests, and social features, giving players even more reasons to sharpen their weapons and dive back into the hunt.
Introducing the Grand Hub
One of the most exciting additions in Title Update 1 is the Grand Hub, a vibrant new gathering space for hunters. This social hub will offer a place for players to interact, prepare for hunts, and experience nighttime performances by the Diva.
New Monsters & Hunts
Monster enthusiasts will be thrilled with the return of Mizutsune, a fan-favorite from past games, making its debut in Monster Hunter Wilds. Additionally, Zoh Shia, the game’s final boss, will become available in a repeatable quest for HR 50+ hunters, allowing them to craft its powerful armor and weapons.
For those seeking an extra challenge, an Arch-tempered version of Rey Dau will arrive in a special event quest. Successfully taking down this formidable beast will reward players with exclusive event armor.
Arena Quests & Leaderboards
Competitive hunters can test their skills in the new Arena Quests, time-attack style missions designed to push players to their limits. A world ranking leaderboard will be available at the Expedition Board in the Grand Hub, letting players compare their best times against others globally.
Festival of Accord: Blossomdance Event
Looking ahead, Capcom has teased the Festival of Accord: Blossomdance, a seasonal event beginning on April 22, 2025. This festival promises unique quests and limited-time rewards, adding a fresh layer of excitement to the game.
What’s Next? Title Update 2 Teasers
Capcom has hinted at Title Update 2, scheduled for summer 2025. While details remain scarce, speculation is high that Lagiacrus, the fearsome leviathan, may make its long-awaited return.
With Title Update 1, Monster Hunter Wilds continues to evolve, offering both veteran and new players exciting new challenges. Stay tuned for more updates and get ready to embark on thrilling new hunts!
