Monster Hunter Wilds was recently announced at The Game Awards and will be arriving in 2025. The reveal trailer showcases many creatures on screen, environmental hazards, and a new bird mount that allows the player to glide. At this point, Monster Hunter Wilds' new additions to the franchise appear to revolve around immersion and scale. The environment of Wilds is, if nothing else, dynamic, and the world seems to be as formidable a threat as its monsters are. This focus on exploring a living area is a trend that started with Monster Hunter World, and one way that Wilds can push the idea forward is by featuring a truly open world.
