Capcom has announced the Monster Hunter Wilds release date, with the latest mainline installment in the long-running monster-slaying RPG series due to launch early next year.
During yesterday's PlayStation State of Play presentation, Capcom revealed that the Monster Hunter Wilds release date is February 28th. Don't worry, though; it's also coming to other platforms on that date, not just PlayStation 5.
The event also brought a reveal for Monster Hunter Wilds' flagship monster, which is a new winged creature known as Arkveld. Capcom says it "hails from a long-extinct species with an ecology shrouded in mystery".
The trailer shown off during yesterday's PlayStation event also featured a number of other reveals for Monster Hunter Wilds, including a look at the game's second major area, the Scarlet Forest.
We also got to see new monsters like the Leviathan-type Uth Duna and the Brute Wyvern Quematrice, which inhabits the Windward Plains. Of course, the game will include far more monsters than just these three, but these are some of the new creatures you'll be battling.
