Monster Hunter Wilds Wins Four Gamescom Awards!

Hey hunters,

How’s it going?

As you may have heard, Monster Hunter Wilds was at Gamescom in August, giving players the opportunity to play the game in the world’s first global playable hands on.

Not only that, we revealed our next trailer at Opening Night Live, introducing the monster, Lala Barina, a new locale, the Scarlet Forest, as well as whole host of new and exciting features, which you can check out below:

We also hosted daily livestreams on the official Monster Hunter Twitch and Youtube channels between Wednesday and Friday, featuring Monster Hunter Wilds Producer, Ryozo Tsujimoto, Monster Hunter Wilds Director Yuya Tokuda and Monster Hunter Wilds Executive Director & Art Director, Kaname Fujioka as they demonstrated gameplay live on stage, answered community questions and even revealed new details about the game!

The response from the Monster Hunter community has been amazing, both at Gamescom itself, as well as the reactions we’ve seen online. We loved seeing your passion, thank you!

Which brings us on to the subject of today’s post, the gamescom awards, an award ceremony at the event, where the winners are determined by both an expert jury of gaming professionals and the gaming community.

During Gamescom we were excited to hear we’d been nominated for three awards, so we called upon the Monster Hunter community on our social media accounts to lend us their support, and well, Monster Hunter Wilds ended up winning four awards!
  • Most Entertaining
  • Most Epic
  • Best Sony PlayStation Game
  • Best Trailer


We’re honoured to receive these awards, thank you to all of our hunters that voted for us, shared your thoughts online and of course, those of you who came to the show – we couldn’t have won them without you.


Quest Complete – We’ll see you next time!


That wraps up today’s post!

We just wanted to share this cool news and celebrate the moment a little more with you!

Monster Hunter Wilds Focus Mode explained

How does focus mode work in Monster Hunter Wilds? It was frustrating to aim and block attacks using certain gear in previous Monster Hunter games, which meant we didn't try out as many weapons or veer away from our favorites as we may have liked to. Thankfully, Capcom is adding a new focus mode to Monster Hunter Wilds that makes it easier to aim attacks, here's what we know.


The Monster Hunter Wilds release date is nearing, and although we've still got some waiting to do for the upcoming game, we have been treated to new details on what to expect from the RPG game next year. This includes the addition of focus mode, a brand-new mechanic that allows you to hone in on enemy weak spots.

Monster Hunter Wilds DLC will not be pay-to-win, Capcom assures

Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Wilds will not change the current microtransaction system used in the series upon release. You can still make extra purchases for special layered armor and the like, but spending more money on the game will not net you any pay-to-win style bonuses after launch. So if you're an avid hunter looking forward to finding the best weapon switch combo, you don't need to worry about in-game purchases giving someone else the advantage.
