While the exact release date for Title Update 1 remains unspecified beyond the "early April" timeframe, attendees of the showcase are hopeful to get a confirmed launch date. This first major content update is highly anticipated and expected to set the tone for future updates.
The spotlight will be on the returning leviathan monster, Mizutsune, known for its dangerous bubbles. Alongside Mizutsune, Capcom plans to introduce a new challenge and a communal space for hunters who have completed the main story. This new area will serve as a hub for meeting, communicating, and dining with other players, enhancing the social aspect of the game.
The community has its own wishlist for Title Update 1, with layered weapons being a popular request. These allow players to change the appearance of their weapons without affecting their stats, adding a layer of personalization. Additional camera options and other quality-of-life improvements are also highly desired.
Following the game's initial launch, the PC version faced some criticism regarding performance. Fans are hopeful that future updates, including Title Update 1, will address these concerns and further optimize Monster Hunter Wilds.
Overall, the excitement for Title Update 1 centers around new monsters to hunt, fresh challenges to overcome, and more content to explore. With Monster Hunter Wilds already boasting impressive launch numbers, Capcom aims to maintain momentum with this update.
To aid players in their journey through Monster Hunter Wilds, a variety of resources are available. These include guides on what the game doesn't explicitly tell you, an overview of all 14 weapon types, a detailed walkthrough, a multiplayer guide to play with friends, and instructions on how to transfer your character from the open beta to the full game.
