Impressive Launch of Monster Hunter Wilds

Mar 01,25

Capcom's latest Monster Hunter title shattered records within minutes of its Steam release. A staggering 675,000 concurrent players were logged within 30 minutes, quickly surpassing 1 million. This marks not only the most successful launch in Monster Hunter history, but also Capcom's most successful game launch ever, eclipsing Monster Hunter: World's 334,000 and Monster Hunter Rise's 230,000 concurrent players. Despite this phenomenal success, the game's Steam page is flooded with negative reviews citing technical problems, including bugs and crashes.

Offering a self-contained narrative, Monster Hunter Wilds serves as a perfect entry point for newcomers to the franchise. The game unfolds in a world teeming with formidable beasts, as the protagonist delves into the secrets of the Forbidden Lands. This journey includes encounters with the legendary "White Ghost," a mythical creature, and the mysterious Guardians, who add layers of complexity and intrigue to the storyline.

While pre-release reviews were largely positive, some critics voiced concerns about Capcom simplifying the gameplay mechanics to broaden its appeal. However, many players and reviewers believe these adjustments were beneficial, making the game more approachable without compromising its depth or quality.

Monster Hunter Wilds is currently available on PC and modern consoles (PS5, Xbox Series X|S).
