Monster Hunter Wilds is Capcom's action RPG that launched in late February across PC and current-gen consoles. The game has maintained a mixed critical reception on Steam, prompting Capcom to announce a permanent price reduction alongside a restructured product lineup arriving in August. The company is retiring its existing Deluxe editions in favor of a new Gold Edition while introducing additional DLC bundles.
Recent updates have focused on expanding solo play options. A patch made all 26 Event Quests playable offline, removing what had previously been an online requirement. Version 1.042 added save transfer support from the Prologue Demo, and Capcom released a new demo alongside these changes. An upcoming paid expansion called Ascendance is in development, though details remain limited following its June announcement. Speculation around potential Switch 2 compatibility has emerged from datamining, though nothing official has been confirmed.
