Monster Hunter Wilds – Open Beta (Steam, Xbox & PS5)

Monster Hunter Wilds is now in open Beta on Steam, Xbox and PlayStation, so everyone can jump into its ever-changing monster-filled world.

Set in the mysterious Forbidden Lands, Monster Hunter Wilds introduces unprecedented environmental shifts that directly impact both wildlife and hunting strategies. The story follows the aftermath of a young boy’s escape from a mysterious monster attack, leading to a Guild-sanctioned expedition into uncharted territory. Players will navigate through dramatic weather changes during “Fallow” and “Inclemency” periods, where monsters hunt in packs, contrasting with abundant “Plenty” periods.

Monster Hunter Wilds has a living ecosystem where monsters have evolved to adapt to these environmental challenges. Hunters must likewise adjust their tactics, utilizing an expanded arsenal of weapons and armor while learning to read monster behaviors and exploit terrain advantages.
