A Monster Hunter Wilds Beta Test is confirmed!
An Open Beta Test (OBT) will be held to let people try the game prior to its full release on Friday,
February 28, 2025.
Players who participate in the OBT will receive a special bonus which can be claimed in the full version of the game. We hope you consider participating.
Concerning the Open Beta Test
The purpose of this test is to allow players to experience a limited portion of Monster Hunter Wilds and also to verify various technical aspects such as network load and overall operation prior to the game's full release.
Please note that the final product is still in development. Certain aspects such as game specifications and balance may differ in the full version.
We are committed to ensuring the quality of the final product.
Open Beta Test Content

Character creation is available in the OBT with the full suite of features that will be available in the full version! During the OBT period, you'll also be able to remake your character as many times as you like.
You can also carry over your character creation data into the full version, so use this chance to design your perfect hunter and Palico.
- Story Trial
In the Story Trial, you can experience the opening cutscene and play through the Chatacabra hunt with basic tutorials. Get a feel for the weapon mechanics and experience the seamless transitions from cutscenes into gameplay.
- Doshaguma Hunt
In the Doshaguma Hunt, the goal is to defeat the alpha of the Doshaguma pack. Explore the vast locale on your Seikret and switch between two different weapon types on the fly as you experience the latest in hunting action.
You can use an SOS Flare during either quest. Use an SOS Flare to play with other players online, or to call for help from NPC Support Hunters—up to three of whom can join your party at once.
