The highly anticipated first major update for Monster Hunter Wilds is fast approaching, and Capcom is set to unveil the details during a special showcase next week. Fans can tune in on March 25 at 7:00 AM PT (10:00 AM ET) via the official Monster Hunter Twitch channel to catch the event hosted by producer Ryozo Tsujimoto.
During the showcase, Capcom will delve into the contents of Title Update 1, which is scheduled to arrive in early April. Among the highlights will be the return of Mizutsune, a formidable leviathan known for its dangerous bubble attacks. Alongside Mizutsune, players can expect a range of new additions, including an intriguing new location designed for hunters who have completed the main storyline. Here, hunters will have the opportunity to meet, socialize, and share meals with fellow players.
While an exact release date for Title Update 1 remains unconfirmed, fans eagerly anticipate more clarity regarding its launch. Beyond Mizutsune, the update promises additional challenges to keep players engaged and excited.
Looking ahead, players have expressed interest in various features for future updates. A popular request is the addition of layered weapons, allowing hunters to change their weapon's appearance without affecting its stats. Other requested improvements include enhanced camera controls and further quality-of-life enhancements.
It’s worth noting that the PC version of Monster Hunter Wilds received mixed feedback upon launch, prompting hope for ongoing optimizations and refinements in subsequent updates. For now, hunters are focused on tackling new monsters, overcoming fresh challenges, and exploring deeper gameplay possibilities.
