Capcom has announced the dates for the second open beta of Monster Hunter: Wilds, offering players another opportunity to experience the highly anticipated RPG before its February 28, 2025 release. The beta, spanning two weekends in February, builds upon the success of the first beta, held in late 2024.

Monster Hunter: Wilds promises a groundbreaking open-world experience, setting a new standard for the franchise.

This ambitious title is already considered a top contender for 2025's most anticipated games.

Available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam.

What Awaits in the Second Beta?

This expanded beta includes all content from the first, including character creation, the story trial, and the Doshaguma hunt. A new challenge awaits with the addition of a Gypceros hunt, a fan-favorite monster returning to the series. Players can also import their characters created during the initial beta, eliminating the need for recreation.

Addressing feedback from the first beta, Capcom acknowledges concerns regarding visuals and weapon mechanics. The developer assures fans that improvements are underway, incorporating player feedback to refine the game before launch.

With the full release fast approaching, this second beta is crucial for both Capcom and the community. It provides valuable time for refinement and further fuels anticipation for what could be a landmark entry in the Monster Hunter series. Whether a returning veteran or a first-time hunter, February promises thrilling hunts for everyone.
