Monster Hunter Wilds Update 1 Launches Early April, Introduces Endgame Hub

Author : Lucas Update : May 22,2025

Capcom has unveiled exciting early details about the first major patch for *Monster Hunter Wilds*, scheduled for release in early April. Following the game's massive launch, Capcom shared insights about Title Update 1 (TU1) in a recent Steam post. The company emphasized that the patch's timing, arriving just over a month after the game's debut, is designed to give players ample time to gear up for the new content and challenges ahead.

Title Update 1 promises to elevate the game's challenge level, with Capcom urging players to "Prepare your gear, and resolve, hunters!" This update introduces a formidable new monster, surpassing the strength of Tempered monsters, along with another challenging creature to test the skills of seasoned hunters.

Additionally, TU1 introduces a new endgame gathering spot, catering to players who have completed the main story. Capcom described it as "a new place to meet, communicate, have meals together and more with other hunters." This addition aims to enrich the social aspect of *Monster Hunter Wilds*, offering a space reminiscent of the Gathering Hubs found in previous Monster Hunter titles, though notably not labeled as such by Capcom. The community's reaction to this feature has been mixed, with some praising the update while others question its absence at launch.

Capcom has also released several images to give players a sneak peek of this new gathering area:
