Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Wilds' Title Update 1 will launch on Thursday, April 3 (Pacific Time) and April 4 (UK time).
The official showcase video below reveals all the new content coming in this first major post-launch update for Monster Hunter Wilds.
The update introduces the Grand Hub – a vibrant new social space featuring fresh activities. Players can enjoy the new Barrel Bowling mini-game and experience nightly performances by the Diva.
Title Update 1 adds Mizutsune, the bubble-spewing leviathan, alongside a Zoh Shia hunt. An event quest will later introduce the formidable Arch-tempered Rey Dau.
The update launches Arena Quests for speedrunning competition and brings back classic gestures from previous series entries. Players can also purchase the new Cosmetic DLC Pack 1.
In late May, Monster Hunter Wilds will receive a crossover event with another unannounced Capcom title. A second major update is scheduled for summer, with Capcom hinting at a new monster's arrival.
While PC performance improvements were notably absent from the showcase, the update maintains Capcom's commitment to ongoing support following the game's successful launch.
