Monster Hunter Wilds 2nd Beta Date Announced

Monster Hunter: Wilds' Second Open Beta Dates Announced!

Capcom has announced the dates for the second open beta of its highly anticipated title, Monster Hunter: Wilds, set to launch February 28th, 2025. This follows a successful first beta in late 2024. The beta will run across two weekends in February, offering players another opportunity to experience the expansive open world before the game's release.

Monster Hunter: Wilds promises a vast, immersive experience featuring diverse ecosystems and a wide array of challenging monsters. The first beta provided a taste of the narrative, character creation, and hunting, featuring the Doshaguma.

Beta Dates and Times:

  • Weekend 1: February 6th, 2025, 7:00 PM PT – February 9th, 2025, 6:59 PM PT
  • Weekend 2: February 13th, 2025, 7:00 PM PT – February 16th, 2025, 6:59 PM PT

The beta will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam.

What Awaits in the Second Beta:

The second beta includes all content from the first, including character creation, the story trial, and the Doshaguma hunt. A new challenge awaits with the addition of a Gypceros hunt, a fan-favorite monster returning to the series. Furthermore, players can import their characters created during the first beta, eliminating the need to recreate them.

Addressing feedback from the first beta, Capcom assures players that improvements are underway based on player comments regarding visuals and weapon mechanics. The team is actively working to enhance the game's quality before its official launch.

This second beta represents a crucial step for both Capcom and the community, providing valuable feedback and rekindling anticipation for what promises to be a landmark entry in the Monster Hunter franchise. Whether a returning hunter or a newcomer, February 2025 is set to be a thrilling month for monster hunting enthusiasts.
