Monster Hunter Wilds - Free Title Update 2
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Lagiacrus Surfaces into the Wilds
At Hunter Rank 31 or above, complete the main mission "A World Turned Upside Down" and the side mission "Forest Doshaguma" to unlock an extra mission featuring Lagiacrus.
The fan-favorite monster, Lagiacrus, has emerged from the depths! Feared as the top of the vast aquatic food chain, these leviathans are capable of discharging a current strong enough to boil the water around them, so hunters who face this monster unprepared will be in for a shock!
In Monster Hunter Wilds, hunters will primarily fight Lagiacrus on the surface. However, battles will also have a special underwater sequence. Even though players will not be able to fully utilize their weapons underwater, we hope everyone enjoys the thrill of taking on Lagiacrus with new underwater action.

Seregios Descends into the Wilds
At Hunter Rank 31 or above, complete the main mission "A World Turned Upside Down" to unlock an extra mission featuring Seregios.
Seregios, known for the sharp, blade-like scales covering their bodies, have descended into the wilds! These fearsome beasts use tempests of swirling talons and razor-sharp scales that cut through the air to inflict their prey with Bleeding. Remember to bring rations and well-done steaks to counter this status effect!


New Tempered Threats
After completing the missions for Lagiacrus and Seregios, each will appear in locales as 8★ tempered monsters at Hunter Rank 41 or above. Will you be able to best these powerful beasts?

Layered Weapons
Customize the appearance of your weapon to pull together an outfit or show off your favorite style!
Craft the final weapon in a tree to use it as layered equipment.
Layered Artian weapons can be obtained by fully reinforcing the Rarity 8 weapon. For weapons that change appearance when upgraded, the pre-upgraded versions will also be available. Forge high-rank Palico weapons to unlock them as layered equipment for your Felyne friend.

New Features
Ability to Swap Handlers

The handler that accompanies you can now be switched between Alma and Erik. Complete the Lagiacrus mission to unlock this new feature.

Mina the Support Hunter

Mina joins the crew of Support Hunters with her trusty sword & shield. In addition, you can now choose which Support Hunters join you on quests.

Photo Mode Enhancements

New features have been added to Photo Mode, such as the Effects tab, where brightness and filters can be adjusted. Your handler, Palico, Seikret, and more can also be hidden using the new Character Display tab. Now you can snap more amazing shots than ever!

Seasonal Event — Festival of Accord: Flamefete: July 23 — August 6
The Grand Hub holds festivities themed around each season. During these seasonal events, the Grand Hub's decorations and meals change to fit the season, and you can obtain unique equipment, gestures, Pop-up Camp decorations, and more! Get ready to beat the heat with this sizzling seasonal event starting July 23.

Arch-tempered Uth Duna Appears for a Limited Time Starting July 30
Arch-tempered Uth Duna will be available to hunt in an event quest and free challenge quest from July 30 to August 20, 2025. Use this chance to forge the Uth Duna γ hunter armor set and Felyne Uth Duna γ Palico set! Hunters who are HR 50 or higher can put their skills to the test against this fearsome foe!


More content is also on the way! From event quests for forging special equipment, to quests for easily collecting Armor Spheres and decorations, and even a Mizutsune Challenge Quest, hunters can look forward to a steady stream of exciting limited-time content!

Fender® Special Collaboration
Monster Hunter Wilds is holding a collaboration with the world-renowned guitar manufacturer, Fender®. From August 27 to September 24, hunters can take part in an event quest to earn a unique collaboration gesture.
The Monster Hunter Rathalos Telecaster®, released worldwide for the 20th anniversary of Monster Hunter, is also coming to the game! Use the collaboration gesture earned from the upcoming collaboration event to rock out with this amazing instrument!
