Monster Hunter: Wilds, poised to be a landmark entry in the franchise, promises a vast, immersive open-world adventure teeming with diverse ecosystems and challenging monsters. The initial beta provided a taste of the narrative, character creation, and hunting, featuring the Doshaguma hunt.

What Awaits in the Second Beta:

The second beta will include all content from the first, allowing players to revisit character creation, the story trial, and the Doshaguma hunt. A thrilling new addition is a hunt against the popular Gypceros monster. Furthermore, characters created during the first beta are transferable, eliminating the need to recreate hunters.

This second beta is crucial for both Capcom and fans, providing valuable time for refinement and bolstering anticipation for this ambitious title. Whether a returning veteran or a newcomer, February 2025 promises an exciting hunt for monster hunters worldwide.
