2025 is shaping up to be a massive year for video game releases, what with juggernauts like Grand Theft Auto 6, Metroid Prime 4, Fable, Death Stranding 2, and Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra all slated for release in the coming months. For action RPG fans, though, one of the biggest highlights for 2025 will likely be the launch of Monster Hunter Wilds, the next mainline installment in Capcom's long-running franchise. From what little information available about it so far, it looks like Monster Hunter Wilds is poised to shake up the series' formula just as MH: World did in 2018. With a greater emphasis on story and a more expansive world, this upcoming installment seems like it has the potential to be a game-changer for the franchise.
