Hello, fellow hunters! As we step into 2025, the anticipation for Monster Hunter Wilds continues to build. With the excitement of a brand-new trailer and some juicy details about the second open beta test (OBT2), there’s plenty to discuss.
First off, let’s dive into the treasure trove of surprises from the latest trailer.
Discover the Iceshard Cliffs and its Inhabitants
This time, we’re taken to a stunning new location: the Iceshard Cliffs. Picture yourself along with the Expedition Team arriving at this mesmerizing icy expanse, ready to face the unique creatures that call it home. It’s a place where frosty blizzards are the norm.
In this locale, the cold bites fiercely, with icy fog swirling in the air and remnants of what seems like past settlements scattered amidst the relentless chill. Should you find yourself wandering during a blizzard, don’t forget to keep warm with a hot drink to stay in peak fighting form.
Meet Rove, the Wudwud
Among the residents of the Iceshard Cliffs, you’ll find Rove, a quirky Wudwud far from home. He’s an intriguing character you won’t want to miss.
Fierce Creatures Await
Of course, what would a Monster Hunter game be without formidable beasts to challenge us? The Iceshard Cliffs hosts some extraordinary creatures, beginning with Hirabami – the leviathan, equipped with sharp claws and the ability to float using the membrane on its neck. Our latest trailer hints at a large mysterious creature attacking a group of Hirabami.
Nerscylla, known for its deadly horn, makes a return to the series, caught in the act of preying on a Gypceros.
The ominous presence of Gore Magala can’t be overlooked, as it unleashes a surprise attack, forever keeping hunters on their toes.
The Mystique of Arkveld Unveiled
A large part of the trailer centers on Arkveld, the White Wraith, revealing more about this flagship monster’s mysterious nature and intentions. Its skillful combat with chain-like appendages is nothing short of breathtaking.
