A new update has been released for Monster Hunter Wilds and brings with it a lot of new content and features. However, that's just the beginning since there's more coming for the game.
Upcoming Updates
Capcom revealed that Free Title Update 3 is arriving sometime in the end of September. The highlight is a new level of quest difficulty that features its own unique rewards.
Hunters can then use these rewards for a new Talisman crafting system, which can be assigned various skills at random. Players can assign the new Talismans to a wide variety of skills like those exclusive to Weapons and Armor. It also randomly assigns slots for decorations.
The studio said that hopefully the system should broaden the range of builds while at the same time create a gameplay loop which encourages players to equip themselves as they take on the toughest challenges available.
Then sometime in winter, it should be Free Title Update 4 that goes live. This update introduces a new monster along with more challenging elements.
Other Plans
The studio also revealed what's being worked on. One is to make sure that the Artian weapons players have already forged remain valuable. This should let players continue to forge and strengthen their Artian weapons.
They're also working on different improvements and adjustments like improving usability and game stability. The studio said that they'll continue to work on through the upcoming updates.
Guild Reports
The studio also shared that they've been getting various feedback and requests from the community. Moving forward, the plan is to directly share and update everyone on some of the improvements they're working on through a series known as Guild Report posts. The issues being looked into currently are:
- Guild Report 1: Optimize the performance of the Steam version.
- Guild Report 2: Make it quicker to access the map.
- Guild Report 3: Improve Seikret's behavior.
- Guild Report 4: Balance and adjust weapons.
