As a seasoned Monster Hunter veteran with countless hours spent slaying beasts and crafting gear, I eagerly await the release of Monster Hunter Wilds! The tantalizing hints and speculations surrounding its potential early 2025 launch have me on the edge of my seat. With each new video released by Capcom, I can feel the anticipation building among our community like a crescendo in a hunter’s duet with a ferocious monster.


Enthusiasts speculate that the new Monster Hunter Wilds game might debut in early 2025 based on recently posted promotional videos. As fans eagerly anticipate a vague 2025 launch, Monster Hunter Wilds is creating a buzz among gamers who are looking forward to the upcoming addition to the well-liked series. The forthcoming Monster Hunter seems to be adopting the open-world design established by Monster Hunter World and its successor, Monster Hunter Rise.

Earlier this year, Capcom revealed that “Monster Hunter Wilds” would be the headliner for their Gamescom 2024 event. They’ve mentioned that the presentation will feature the premiere demo of the game and will offer 60 stations where players can test it out. Yet, no official release date has been disclosed yet. Nevertheless, some enthusiastic gamers think they might have pinpointed a possible launch date for the game.

As a dedicated gamer, I’ve been eagerly keeping an eye on the official Monster Hunter channels. They’ve been dropping some tantalizing content about Monster Hunter Wilds recently, which has fueled my anticipation that we might get our hands on it in six months. This is reminiscent of how Monster Hunter World was hyped up before its release, with a video package dropped around the same timeframe a year and a half ago. All signs point to a potential launch within the first quarter of 2025, so cross your fingers for January to March!

Various videos were posted that included a Basics Mechanics Recap, a Spotlight on Focus Mode, and a demonstration of the Great Sword in Monster Hunter, with more to come. The Basics Mechanics video delved into the new Seikret mount and slinger features, while the Focus Mode clip centered around the updated targeting system. However, it was the weapon demonstration that sparked anticipation among fans, suggesting a potential release in early 2025. Interestingly, Capcom shared a similar weapon demo video for Monster Hunter World on July 27, 2017, which was half a year before its initial launch date. In a similar strategy, Monster Hunter Rise released weapon trailers three months prior to its launch.

Although the proposed dates are currently speculative, the evidence seems to align with the identified pattern. Given that Monster Hunter Wilds is set to launch simultaneously on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, it’s reasonable to assume that Capcom has already devised a strategy to guarantee timely deliveries and kick off the year with major releases. Notably, Capcom has a track record of releasing Monster Hunter games during the first quarter of the year.
