Monster Hunter Wilds Surpasses 10 Million Units Sold

As announced before, Monster Hunter Wilds’ first free title update is scheduled for April 4, bringing new content, a new multiplayer gathering location, and several tweaks and changes. However, Capcom has now teased even more updates, with one arriving at the end of May, a second free title update in the summer, and more to come. These will include additional Tempered Monsters and a new limited-time event for Arch-Tempered monsters—stronger versions of Tempered Monsters—starting April 30.

Moreover, the end-of-May update will add a new Tempered Monster to Monster Hunter Wilds called Gore Magala, along with the apex predators of each locale: Rey Dau, Uth Duna, Nu Udra, and Jin Dahaad. All these monsters will receive adjustments to their health and resistance to make them a bit more challenging for players. Capcom has also confirmed that even more formidable monsters will be added in future updates.

Capcom has reassured its commitment to addressing player feedback, particularly concerns about weapon balance, while also adding more quality-of-life improvements. As Monster Hunter Wilds continues to thrive, players can look forward to a wealth of exciting new content on the horizon.
