Monster Hunter Wilds has a significant presence at Gamescom 2024, and with details emerging from the first hands-on demo and some hefty developer livestreams, the next installment in this storied action RPG franchise is looking better by the hour. From weapons and armor to quality-of-life upgrades, Wilds is packing some significant upgrades.
Series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto, art director Kaname Fujioka, and Wilds game director Yuya Tokuda shared some interesting details in a Gamescom stream. Monster Hunter sleuth Oceaniz helpfully collected many standouts in a few posts, and this has come alongside hands-on impressions from well-known Monster Hunter speedrunners like Canta Per Me. This comes with the usual asterisk of any unfinished build, and we'll soon be on the show floor testing the demo ourselves, but it's a promising sign as we inch toward the game's 2025 - potentially early 2025 - launch.
