In the 2nd beta you can face a new powerful monster, but that’s not for beginners

Monster Hunter Wilds will finally start the 2nd open beta on February 7, 2025. There are some differences to the first. Above all, new monsters that you can fight. One of them will be particularly demanding, because it is the new flagship monster.

Which monster is it about? In a new Capcom Spotlight (via YouTube), Capcom presented some of her current games. There were also new news about upcoming titles. There was a new trailer for Monster Hunter Wilds, which shows something special in one place.

In the course of the new trailer, there was also further information about the open beta that goes from 07th to February 10th and from February 14th to 17th. The big highlight is that you can fight the new flagship monster Arkveld. In the presentation, however, it is already emphasized that the fight is not easy and is more suitable for advanced users.

But that’s not the only innovation of the second beta.
