Overview
- Capcom revealed Ascendance at Summer Game Fest on Friday and confirmed the expansion will arrive in 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
- The expansion adds the Skybound Eyrie, a network of floating islands players will reach by riding Seikret updrafts and gliding between ruins.
- A new Boost Bracer gauntlet will let hunters supercharge weapon moves for fresh attacks, combos and mobility to meet higher Master Rank difficulty.
- Developer Takuro Hiraoka is directing Ascendance and Capcom also announced a Nintendo Switch 2 port of Wilds that has no release date and has not been tied to the expansion.
- Ascendance follows a year of patches that fixed Wilds' early PC performance problems and added harder content, and Capcom positions this Iceborne-sized DLC as a bid to broaden platform reach and restore the game's long-term reputation.
