Impressive Launch of Monster Hunter Wilds

Capcom's latest Monster Hunter installment shattered records just 30 minutes after its Steam release, boasting over 675,000 concurrent players and quickly surpassing 1 million. This marks not only the best launch in Monster Hunter history but also Capcom's best-ever game launch. The previous record holder, Monster Hunter: World (2018), peaked at 334,000 concurrent players, with Monster Hunter Rise (2022) trailing at 230,000. Despite this phenomenal success, the game's Steam launch was met with a wave of negative reviews citing technical issues, including bugs and frequent crashes.

Monster Hunter Wilds offers a self-contained narrative, making it perfect for newcomers. Players explore the mysterious Forbidden Lands, battling dangerous creatures and encountering the legendary "White Ghost," a mythical beast, and the enigmatic Guardians, who add layers of intrigue to the story.

While pre-release reviews were largely positive, some critics pointed to simplified gameplay mechanics, suggesting Capcom aimed for broader appeal. However, many players and reviewers lauded these changes, praising their success in enhancing accessibility without compromising depth or quality.

Monster Hunter Wilds is now available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
