Even before Monster Hunter Wilds came out, Capcom had already been working on its first major post-launch update. We’ve known for a while that it would arrive in early April, and bring with it a new monster in the form of Mizutsune. Next week, we’ll learn everything else coming to the game with Title Update 1.

Monster Hunter Wilds has been a smash hit since it launched last month, following the success of the series breakout hit Monster Hunter World in 2018. It's the best-selling game of 2025 so far, and sold 8 million copies during its first three days on the market, making it Capcom's fastest-selling title to date.

Monster Hunter Wilds is still suffering from performance issues on PC, and modders are zeroing in on the problem before Capcom is able to – and chances are, the devs aren't going to be happy about it.

Capcom's Monster Hunter Wilds topped Circana's US charts for February, and is the best-selling game of 2025 so far.

In February 2025, video game sales in the U.S. showed strong performances from new releases, with Monster Hunter Wilds leading the pack. This action game from Capcom sold 8 million copies worldwide in just three days and topped the charts as the best-selling game of the month in the U.

The first big update for Monster Hunter Wilds looms on the horizon, and next week, Capcom will host a showcase to spotlight what's in store for Title Update 1 in Monster Hunter Wilds. The Monster Hunter Wilds Showcase airs on March 25 at 7am PT / 10am ET on the Monster Hunter Twitch channel.
