Surprising absolutely no one, Capcom is continuing its hit Monster Hunter series. This new entry is Monster Hunter Wilds, which looks like a continuation of Monster Hunter World that will bring a plethora of changes along with it. The title was confirmed as the final announcement of this year’s Game Awards.
With next year marking the 25th anniversary of the Monster Hunter series, many speculated a new game was on the horizon. It’s unknown just what separates this new Wilds entry from the rest of the Monster Hunter franchise, but based on the snippet of gameplay we saw during the trailer, we can expect the classic main formula to make a return with one big change. The environments in which players will hunt in this new game appear to be the biggest that the series has ever seen.
The trailer showcases the player character riding on the back of a monster through a crowd of creatures while being chased by two even larger monsters. It ends by showcasing the character flying across the sky and looking out to a giant open field. An interview with series producer, Ryozo Tsujimoto revealed that this entry will feature “a new level of detailed creatures and ecosystems.”
While there is no exact release date as of yet, Monster Hunter Wilds is confirmed to launch in 2025. As such, hunters have tons of time to finish up their journeys in Monster Hunter Rise and Monster Hunter World before the next adventure in the monster world begins.
