Capcom has released a brand new Monster Hunter: Wilds trailer, offering a fresh look at the anticipated sequel while introducing several monsters.
The trailer shown at Thursday's State of Play stream featured a brand new cinematic look at the game, including a smattering of combat gameplay. We got a look at a number of weapons and their functions in combat, as well.
The new trailer represents the first big wave of monsters confirmed for Monster Hunter: Wilds. Previously, Capcom had only revealed Rathalos, which is one of the franchise's main recurring monsters. Capcom also revealed a brand new winged mount and other creatures.
Monster Hunter Wilds was first announced during The Game Awards 2023, where it was confirmed to be coming to PS5, Xbox, and PC. It is the follow-up to the wildly successful Monster Hunter: World and Monster Hunter: Rise, which have sold some 40 million units between them.
As always, Monster Hunter: Wilds will pit up to four players against a host of fantastical and challenging beasts, with the latest game featuring a desert setting. Monster Hunter Wilds does not have a firm release date but is expected to be out sometime in 2025.
In the meantime, several other games were revealed during the stream. Go here to see everything announced during the State of Play and make sure to tune in to Beyond's post-show immediately after the stream concludes.
