Critic Reviews for Monster Hunter Wilds
The most exhilarating and refined Monster Hunter yet, even if its attempts to balance the old and new don't always quite coalesce in its ongoing quest to please all audiences.
Best in class monster combat makes up for a wilderness that's a touch too streamlined.
Monster Hunter Wilds is the most accessible game in the franchise to date, which means huge improvements along with questionable choices.
Monster Hunter Wilds continues to smooth off the rougher corners of the series in smart ways, making for some extremely fun fights but also lacking any real challenge.
Monster Hunter Wilds is a beautiful and addictive entry into the series that brings along polish and clears up some oldschool clutter. An excellent entry point for newcomers to the franchise, its superb gameplay and multiplayer experience will keep veterans entertained for many months to come
It’s a streamlined Monster Hunter that goes to great lengths to avoid all of the fiddly (and often confusing) systems the series is known for. That’s a noble goal and one that I ultimately found to be refreshing, but in its simplification, it naturally sacrifices some interesting complexity.
The Forbidden Lands are an enticing new playground for the series, and I look forward to spending dozens more hours uncovering the rest of its secrets.
