Early reviews are overwhelmingly positive. Monster Hunter Wilds boasts an impressive 89/100 Metacritic score (based on 54 PS5 reviews). Critics laud the game's signature challenging gameplay within a stunning, dynamic open world. A streamlined UI ensures accessibility for new players.

The core gameplay of battling massive monsters remains a standout, powered by state-of-the-art graphics and innovative features such as dual weapon slots and a focus mode. However, some reviewers note the combat might feel repetitive after extended play, and the skill system, which links offense to weapons and defense to armor/accessories, has drawn some criticism. Despite these minor drawbacks, Monster Hunter Wilds promises an unforgettable experience for veteran hunters and newcomers alike.
