Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 New Challenges Launch April 4

The elegant leviathan from Monster Hunter Rise makes its debut in the Forbidden Lands. Hunters can take on Mizutsune starting at Hunter Rank 21, facing its signature bubble attacks. A tougher Tempered Mizutsune becomes available at Hunter Rank 41, promising an even greater challenge.

Arch-tempered Rey Dau

Veterans can test their mettle against Arch-tempered Rey Dau, available from Hunter Rank 50. Defeating this formidable beast allows hunters to craft the exclusive Rey Dau Gamma armor set.

Grand Hub and Seasonal Festivals

The new Grand Hub opens as a massive social area for players, hosting the Festival of Accord: Blossomdance and a range of activities, including the lighthearted Barrell Bowling minigame.

Event Quests and Challenges

Players can enjoy new Arena Quests, Challenge Quests, and special Event Quests offering rewards such as unique armor sets, HR boosts, and rare cooking ingredients.

Cosmetic and Camp Upgrades

The update also introduces customization features: new handler outfits, accessory options and glasses for Alma, additional gestures, and expanded camp gear via the Cosmetic DLC Pack 1.
