Capcom has announced that its latest Monster Hunter game, Monster Hunter Wilds, will be released on February 28, 2025. To celebrate this announcement, the team also released a new gameplay trailer, which you can find below.
In Monster Hunter Wilds, hunters have two weapon states. These two states are sheathed and drawn. In sheathed mode, you can run faster and use items. In drawn mode, your movement is limited, but you can use your weapon to fight against your enemies.
Players can use the Seikret as a means of transportation. The Seikret is a creature that players can mount at any time. This creature can automatically guide you to the target monster of your current quest. While riding, you can also restore your health, sharpen your weapon, collect useful hunting items and materials, or switch your primary and secondary weapons.
Players also have access to the Slinger and the Hooker. The Slinger allows you to fire various types of ammo that you can collect in the environment, while the Hooker allows you to collect items from a distance or interact with the environment.
As the developers have noted, Focus Mode will add a new layer to hunting. Players will aim for attacks or defenses and hit wounds highlighted in this mode to deal additional damage. This allows you to use Focus Strikes to unleash special attacks that deal huge damage to wounds and weak points.
Monster Hunter Wilds is powered by the RE Engine. For those who are interested, Capcom has not yet announced its PC requirements.
