Capcom warned Monster Hunter Wilds players not to cheat on its ranked leaderboards, so of course people are immediately and flagrantly doing just that

Alma, the handler from Monster Hunter Wilds, closes her eyes and looks a little disappointed.

Capcom had a stern finger to wag at prospective Monster Hunter Wilds players in preparation for its first title update—posting to X, a lengthy warning read: "Hunters, TU1 brings with it quest types where you can compete for the fastest time for both leaderboard position[s] and cosmetic pendant rewards.

"To ensure a fun and fair experience for our players, we will take action against accounts participating in fraudulent ranking activity, such as the use of cheating or external tools. Accounts deemed to be in breach of this may be suspended, or have restrictions placed on them, such as being unable to receive rewards from these quests."
