Monster Hunter Wilds: Update 1 and Roadmap Revealed

*Monster Hunter Wilds* is poised to be the most groundbreaking installment yet in Capcom’s award-winning franchise. As the game's release date of February 27 approaches, excitement builds with the unveiling of a detailed roadmap for post-launch content. Here's what you can expect from *Monster Hunter Wilds*‘ first major update.

What’s Coming in Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 & Roadmap

During PlayStation’s 2025 State of Play broadcast, Capcom showcased the launch trailer for *Monster Hunter Wilds*, which included a surprise roadmap for future content. This roadmap promises to keep the game fresh and engaging well beyond its initial release.

Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 – Mizutsune, Event Quests, & Additional Updates

Leading the charge in Title Update 1 is the return of Mizutsune, a fan-favorite dragon-type monster known for its aquatic habitat and bubble-based attacks that can inflict Bubbleblight. With its striking pink scales and purple fur, Mizutsune not only poses a thrilling challenge but also offers some of the most visually appealing gear in the game. While its location in *Monster Hunter Wilds* remains a mystery, the trailer showed Mizutsune ambushing the newcomer Doshaguma, suggesting its combat mechanics will remain largely unchanged.

Alongside Mizutsune, Title Update 1 will introduce a new set of Event Quests, accessible via the game’s Mission Board. These quests will challenge players to slay various monsters for valuable rewards, though the exact number of quests remains undisclosed. This update will also include "additional updates" slated for spring, which may focus on performance optimizations and other enhancements, crucial for maintaining the game's smooth operation.

Feedback from the recent beta test suggests that *Monster Hunter Wilds* is on track for a robust launch, setting the stage for these exciting updates.

Monster Hunter Wilds Summer Title Update 2 & Beyond

The roadmap extends into Summer 2025 with Title Update 2, promising the introduction of another new monster. While details about this creature are scarce, it could be either a fresh addition to the franchise or a returning favorite. This update will also feature more Event Quests, ensuring that hunters have plenty of challenges to tackle.

While it's unclear if *Monster Hunter Wilds* will receive further updates beyond these two, Capcom's commitment to the game's success hints at potential future content. Stay tuned for more surprises that could enhance your hunting experience.
