Monster Hunter Wilds might be one of the biggest releases of 2025, and we mean that in more ways than one. The landmark action RPG that has players crafting builds as they takedown massive beasties is always ambitious with each new entry, and Wilds features impressively big foes, big areas, and what's sure to be a big hour count. We've collectively spent thousands of hours on the hunt on the team across each entry, so we couldn't say no to jet-setting across the sea to visit where the monster magic happens in Osaka, Japan.
Release date: February 28, 2025
Developer: In-house
Publisher: Capcom
Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X
Previous hands-on sessions of Monster Hunter Wilds have impressed us, but our time playing the game alongside the developers at Capcom have taken it to the next level. They've seriously been putting in the work to improve it further each time, and frankly, we're blown away not just by the scope of Monster Hunter Wilds' ambitions, but how readily Capcom is stepping up to the plate to meet it. With over five hours more spent with this new build, and time chatting with the creatives putting it all together, we've learned loads more about what will likely end up our most-played game of next year. It's a beast.
