This is the first time that the Monster Hunter series has truly embraced story-oriented and cinematic narrative. From an experience point of view, it is quite successful. It is the first time that I have felt a sense of immersion in the plot of the Monster Hunter series.

On the base PS5 the game ran very well in any mode, with very rare drops mainly in the passages from one area to another, but without ever suffering any evident ones, even during the most chaotic situations.

Monster Hunter Wilds manages to deliver on every expectation one would have for a new Monster Hunter game, before dropping the throttle and blasting through every expectation you didn't even know you had. With gameplay shake ups, weapon tweaks and a brilliant range of monsters strewn across a score of incredible landscapes, Wilds is a different beast that establishes itself as well worth the hunt.

If I offered you a lovely sandwich full of your favourite ingredients, but the first 10% of said sandwich I had filled with my toenails, you're probably not going to be able to give that sandwich the score you'd otherwise like to give it, right? When you're in the thick of the combat and the game is allowing you to focus on tackling these incredible foes, alone or with others, it's probably the best the series has ever been.

Monster Hunter Wilds is a fantastic new entry into the franchise. For the most part, I feel like every new feature feels good and works well, and the monsters are certainly a delight to fight. The only things that might hold it back slightly are some performance issues, but even those don't get in the way of the core fun of smashing monsters, looting gear, and repeating. Fans of the franchise should have a fantastic time with this latest entry, and I hope it becomes a blueprint for future games in the franchise.

Monster Hunter Wilds is a brilliant action role-playing game that progresses by challenging the player against a multitude of amazing bosses. Don't be afraid of the detailed gameplay systems, the complex appearance of some menus, the large number of items, or even the long and rich history of the series. Even if you have never experienced a single minute of any version of the Monster Hunter series before, Monster Hunter Wilds deserves a chance. To put it simply and put your mind at ease: Capcom has shone once again.

It’s always fun to hunt a giant monster with your over the top weapons and Monster Hunter Wilds delivers that epic feeling most of the time (except for the low difficulty). It courageously aims for the high bar that MH World has been set up but can’t reach there. Yet.

It may not change the minds of those who didn't love MHWorld, but Monster Hunter Wilds is the perfect and natural evolution of Capcom's greatest success and the definitive monster hunting game that absolutely should not be missing from every hunter's library.

The hunts and the impressive lineup of monsters are of course the heart and soul of the game, but there are mechanics upon mechanics to explore and figure out. Combat is fluid, tight, and each hunt is unique. The changes and additions to each weapon, and the fact that you can now bring two weapons on a hunt, make Monster Hunter Wilds the best iteration in the series to date.

The game takes many enormous strides forward for the IP but then has some minor faults that are in some particularly painful areas. The foundation is incredible though and with an already well-documented roadmap ahead, Monster Hunter Wilds is going to be one of the most consistently enjoyable games of 2025 both at launch, and for the many months to come.
