While its next Title Update launches in late September, Capcom unveiled the next collaboration for Monster Hunter Wilds at Gamescom Opening Night Live: Final Fantasy 14. It’s not particularly surprising, especially since Behemoth appeared in Monster Hunter World, but this time, you’ll face Omega Planetes. Check it out below courtesy of IGN.
Another big new addition is being able to ride Chocobos, which should feel even better given Wilds’ expanded traversal mechanics. How the development team will justify Planetes arriving in the Forbidden Lands remains to be seen.
It’s also worth noting that Final Fantasy 14 fans are getting their own special event with Wilds in early October. Players can mount Sekrets (which also glide), explore vast new environments and even take on Guardian Arkveld. Stay tuned for more details on both collaborations in the coming weeks.
Monster Hunter Wilds is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. Capcom recently outlined plans to improve CPU and GPU optimization on PC. Head here for more details.
