Monster Hunter Wilds Sets Sept. 29 Launch for Final Fantasy XIV Crossover Featuring Omega Planetes

TGS 2025 demos preview a raid-style showdown that brings MMO mechanics to sharpen Wilds’ endgame.

Overview

  • Capcom detailed the free Title Update 3 at TGS 2025, confirming the Omega Planetes hunt alongside Final Fantasy–themed gear and cosmetics.
  • Uploaded gameplay shows a multi‑phase fight with lasers, missiles, flamethrowers, rocket punches, an HP Penalty status effect, Omega Micro minions, and an enraged Pantokrator Mode that demands breaking leg Wounds with Focus Mode.
  • A later phase spawns a hologram Nerscylla whose defeat creates a shield to withstand the Delta Attack, encouraging coordinated play and mid‑fight elemental swaps via the Seikret mount.
  • The collaboration adds job‑inspired equipment, including Bale Armor’s Soul of the Dark Knight barrier, a Shadowbringer greatsword skill, and a usable Soul of the Pictomancer three‑spell sequence.
  • Access to the hunt requires Hunter Rank 41 and completion of the ‘What Lies Ahead’ mission, with the update arriving on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam.
