Monster Hunter: Wilds' Second Open Beta Dates Announced

Capcom has announced the dates for the second open beta of its highly anticipated title, Monster Hunter: Wilds. This two-weekend beta, running in February 2025, offers players another opportunity to experience the expansive open world before the game's official launch on February 28th, 2025. The first beta, successfully launched in late 2024, provided a taste of the game's narrative and character creation, along with initial hunting challenges.

Monster Hunter: Wilds promises a significant leap forward for the franchise, featuring a vast, diverse open world teeming with unique monsters. The upcoming beta will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam.

Beta Dates and Times (PT):

• Weekend 1: February 6th, 7:00 PM – February 9th, 6:59 PM
• Weekend 2: February 13th, 7:00 PM – February 16th, 6:59 PM

What Awaits in the Second Beta:

The second beta includes all content from the first, allowing players to revisit character creation, story trials, and the Doshaguma hunt. A new challenge awaits with the addition of a Gypceros hunt, a fan-favorite monster returning to the series. Furthermore, players can import their characters created during the first beta, eliminating the need to recreate their hunters.

Capcom acknowledges feedback received following the first beta, addressing concerns regarding visuals and weapon mechanics. The developer assures players that significant improvements are underway based on player feedback, aiming for a polished final product.

This second beta is crucial for both Capcom and fans. It provides valuable time for further refinement and serves as a powerful reminder of the exciting adventure awaiting in Monster Hunter: Wilds. Whether a returning veteran or a first-time hunter, February 2025 promises an exhilarating experience.
