Capcom confirmed {that a} large enlargement for last year’s Monster Hunter Wilds will likely be revealed later this 12 months. And subsequent week, Wilds will obtain extra PC efficiency enhancements as a part of its one-year anniversary replace, which can also be the bottom recreation’s last main content material replace. Will or not it’s sufficient to assist flip the sport’s rankings round on Steam?
On February 9, Capcom put out a brand new video celebrating the one-year anniversary of Monster Hunter Wilds. Within the fan-focused video, Monster Hunter collection producer Ryozo Tsujimoto teased that extra details about Monster Hunter Wilds’ enlargement can be launched this summer time and supplied some hints about how massive it is going to be.
“We are currently at work on a large-scale expansion similar to Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak for Monster Hunter: Wilds,” mentioned Tsujimoto. “We plan to share more information with you this summer.”
Whereas Tsujimoto didn’t share some other particulars concerning the enlargement, the producer did present extra particulars on Wilds‘ big anniversary update arriving on February 18. Gamers can count on some crossover content material with the upcoming spin-off Monster Hunter Tales 3, in addition to an anniversary occasion that can make most earlier rewards and quests “re-available.” Every earlier seasonal occasion may even return for a weekly rotation. Gamers who log in in the course of the occasion may even obtain a free merchandise pack.
In the meantime, the producer shared some encouraging information about enhancing Wilds‘ efficiency, an issue that has plagued and continues to be a problem for the game since its release last February.
“We have been implementing improvements to game stability and performance since Title Update 4,” Tsujimoto added, “and this [February 18] update will introduce even further improvements.”
This anniversary replace is the ultimate “major content update” for the sport because the Monster Hunter Wilds crew strikes on to growing the upcoming enlargement, so hopefully this final large replace for the bottom recreation can enhance efficiency on PC in an enormous approach. If not, well, I expect modders will keep doing good work on that front.
