*Monster Hunter Wilds* is poised to be the most revolutionary entry yet in Capcom's acclaimed franchise. With its release on the horizon, a detailed roadmap for future content has been unveiled, promising an exciting journey for hunters worldwide. Here's a comprehensive look at what to expect from *Monster Hunter Wilds*' first major update.
What’s Coming in Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 & Roadmap
As the global community of hunters eagerly anticipates the February 27 release of *Monster Hunter Wilds*, Capcom showcased the game's launch trailer during PlayStation's 2025 State of Play event. The trailer concluded with a surprise roadmap, outlining the planned post-launch content.
Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 – Mizutsune, Event Quests, & Additional Updates
Leading the charge in Title Update 1 is the return of Mizutsune, a fan-favorite dragon-type monster known for its aquatic habitat and bubble-based attacks that can inflict debilitating conditions like Bubbleblight. With its striking pink scales and purple fur, Mizutsune not only poses a formidable challenge but also offers some of the most visually appealing gear in the game.
Footage from the trailer shows Mizutsune ambushing the newcomer Doshaguma, suggesting that its attack patterns will remain largely unchanged. However, the specific locations where players can encounter Mizutsune are yet to be disclosed.
Accompanying Mizutsune, Title Update 1 will introduce a new set of Event Quests, accessible via the game's Mission Board. These quests typically involve hunting various monsters for valuable rewards, though the exact number of new quests remains under wraps. This addition will undoubtedly provide players with more reasons to gear up and dive into the action.
The update also mentions "additional updates" slated for the Spring Title Update, though specifics are currently unavailable. These could include performance optimizations or other enhancements, which are crucial for ensuring a smooth gaming experience in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Feedback from the recent beta test suggests that the game is well on its way to a robust launch.
Monster Hunter Wilds Summer Title Update 2 & Beyond
The launch trailer also teases a second Title Update scheduled for Summer 2025, promising the introduction of another new monster. While details about this creature are scarce, it remains to be seen whether it will be a fresh addition to the franchise or a returning favorite.
Alongside the new monster, more Event Quests will be added, keeping the hunting community engaged and challenged.
Beyond these two updates, it's unclear whether *Monster Hunter Wilds* will receive further content this year. However, given Capcom's commitment to a successful launch, more surprises could be in store for players.
