Monster Hunter Wilds is considering extending its Open Beta Test 2 by 24 hours following a significant PlayStation Network outage.
Monster Hunter Wilds to Possibly Extend Beta Test 2
A 24-Hour Play Interruption for PS5 Players
The PlayStation Network outage, lasting 24 hours from 6 PM EST on February 7th, impacted online gaming, including the Monster Hunter Wilds beta. Service was restored around 8 PM EST, according to the official NA X (Twitter) support account. While a 24-hour extension is under consideration to compensate for lost playtime, the specific timing hasn't been announced. The extension could occur anytime between the end of Beta Test 2 Part 2 and February 27th, the day before the game's official release. Note that Part 1 of Beta Test 2 has concluded, and Part 2 begins February 13th at 7 PM PT. Players can look forward to resuming their hunts, and perhaps encountering the infamous low-poly bug.
The Hilariously Cursed Low-Poly Bug Returns
Capcom acknowledges the beta build's outdated nature and the presence of bugs, including the comical low-poly character glitch. This glitch, caused by texture loading issues, transforms characters, Palicos, and monsters into blocky, low-resolution versions of themselves. Instead of frustration, this bug has become a source of amusement, with players sharing their low-poly encounters on social media. While developers are aware and appreciate the humorous response, they recommend experiencing the game with optimal specifications upon its official release.
Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest entry in the acclaimed series, features an open-world setting called the Forbidden Lands. Players investigate this mysterious region and its apex predator, the White Wraith. This highly anticipated action-RPG launches on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on February 28th, 2025.
PlayStation Network Experiences One of its Largest Recent Outages
PlayStation attributed the outage to an "operational issue" and apologized for the disruption. PlayStation Plus subscribers will receive five extra days of service as compensation. However, the lack of communication during the outage drew criticism, echoing concerns from the 2011 PSN outage, a significant event caused by a hacker attack that compromised 77 million accounts and resulted in a three-and-a-half-week service interruption. In contrast to the 2011 event, communication during this recent outage was lacking.
