Monster Hunter Wilds launches on February 28th, 2025, for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. As a member of the Research Commission, players venture to the Forbidden Lands to investigate it and locate an expedition party that’s gone missing. Unlike previous titles, real-time weather phenomena can occur and change the biome’s conditions. Check out this trailer for the latest revealed locale, Oilwell Basin, and three new monsters.
