Capcom finally revealed Monster Hunter Wilds' release date, finally telling players when they'll get to play the first of a new generation of Monster Hunter.
Prior to today, Capcom had given a vague "2025" window for Monster Hunter Wilds' release. With this in mind, more than a few fans were hoping for a release date early in the year, especially as its predecessors had also released during a similar timeframe.
It turns out that they were right.
As part of Sony's pre-Tokyo Game Show State of Play, Capcom released a new Monster Hunter Wilds trailer that gives out the game's release date – February 28, 2025.
With that, players eagerly waiting for Monster Hunter Wilds' will only have to do so for five more months.
The release date wasn't the only thing Capcom showed in the new trailer. It also gave players their first proper look at the new Scarlet Forest region, first seen in the Gamescom trailer. (Read: Monster Hunter Wilds' Gamescom showcase reveals massive changes for the series)
Of course, the trailer also showed off some new monsters. These were Quematrice, a basilisk-like wyvern running lose in the Windward Plains; Uth Duna, a large aquatic monster that dwells in the Scarlet Forest; and Arveld, a monster also known as the "White Wraith."
Of these three, Arkveld's reveal is the most important as it's been confirmed to be the flagship monster for Monster Hunter Wilds, with the trailer hinting that it's the monster that the protagonists of Monster Hunter Wilds are searching for.
What role Arkvels, with hits whip-like wings that exude mysterious purple energy, will play in the Monster Hunter Wilds' story, players will have to wait until the game's release date to find out.
Monster Hunter Wilds arrives on PlayStation 5, PC and Xbox Series consoles on February 28, 2025.
