Capcom has unveiled the first details of Monster Hunter Wilds' inaugural major patch, dubbed Title Update 1, scheduled for an early April release. This update, arriving just over a month post-launch, aims to give players ample time to gear up for the new challenges and content on the horizon.
Title Update 1 introduces a heightened level of difficulty, with Capcom warning players to prepare their gear and resolve. The update features a monster of "formidable strength" surpassing even the Tempered level, alongside the introduction of a new challenging monster.
In a move to enhance the endgame experience, Title Update 1 also adds a new social hub for players. Capcom describes this as a place where hunters can gather, communicate, enjoy meals together, and more, once they've completed the main storyline. This addition has sparked a mixed reaction from the community; some players welcome the new feature, while others question its absence at the game's launch. Though reminiscent of the Gathering Hubs in previous Monster Hunter titles, Capcom has opted for a new designation for this space. Images of this new gathering place have been released, offering a glimpse into what players can expect.
Amidst the excitement, Capcom has also released a troubleshooting guide for Monster Hunter Wilds, responding to the game's 'mixed' reviews on Steam. To aid players in their journey, resources such as guides on the game's lesser-known aspects, a comprehensive walkthrough, a multiplayer guide, and instructions for transferring beta characters are available.
IGN's review of Monster Hunter Wilds awarded it an 8/10, praising the game for refining the series' mechanics and delivering engaging combat, though noting a lack of significant challenge.
