Monster Hunter Wilds Team Urges Return, Schedules Showcase for Next Update

Capcom scheduled a December 8 presentation to outline Free Title Update 4 following months of tweaks addressing difficulty complaints.

Overview

  • Capcom will air a Monster Hunter Showcase on December 8 at 2 p.m. PT/10 p.m. GMT to detail Monster Hunter Wilds Free Title Update 4.
  • Title Update 4 launches December 16 with the return of Gogmazios, new endgame activities, seasonal events, weapon balance changes, and performance improvements.
  • Director Yuya Tokuda acknowledged the launch difficulty curve was too light for veterans and asked players who stopped after release to try the game again.
  • Wilds earned the Grand Award and a User's Choice honor at the PlayStation Partner Awards 2025 Japan Asia.
  • Producer Ryozo Tsujimoto said the franchise will continue with efforts to expand the IP beyond games, while promising further updates for Wilds as sales cooled sharply after an initial 10 million sold in the first month and just 160,000 in the quarter ending September 30.
