Monster Hunter Wilds: Pre-Order Bonuses and Editions Revealed

As *Monster Hunter Wilds* approaches its eagerly awaited release on February 28, fans are scrambling to secure their pre-order bonuses. Is it worth rushing to put your money down? Let's delve into the details of all pre-order bonuses and editions to help you make an informed decision.

Which Platforms Is Monster Hunter Wilds Available On?

*Monster Hunter Wilds*, the latest installment in Capcom’s renowned monster-slaying series, is set to launch on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Unfortunately, it won't be available on the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4, likely due to hardware limitations. Speculation about a potential release on the Nintendo Switch 2 exists, but Nintendo has yet to confirm anything.

In this new chapter, players will explore a vast open world, confronting an array of formidable creatures, including the massive Uth Duna and the iconic dragon-like Rathalos. While Rathalos is a familiar face, Uth Duna represents a thrilling new challenge for hunters to overcome.

Every Pre-Order Bonus For Monster Hunter Wilds

If you pre-order *Monster Hunter Wilds* before the deadline of February 28, you'll receive the following bonuses:

• Talisman: Hope Charm

While the exact effects of the Hope Charm remain undisclosed, it's expected to provide some beneficial effects based on previous *Monster Hunter* games. Although it won't make you an unstoppable force, it could offer a slight advantage in specific scenarios.
