    Everything important about the release

    What else do I need to know? In the meantime, the developers have adapted the information for the space required, from 140 GB to around 75 GB.

    If you want to experience Monster Hunter Wilds with up to three hunters in the co-op (with cross play), an active PS Plus subscription and an online multiplayer subscription via Game Pass Core or Ultimate need an active PS Plus subscription. If you only want to enjoy wilds alone, the respective subscription is not necessary.

    What is Monster Hunter Wilds? According to Monster Hunter World from 2018, it is only the second part of the popular series from Capcom, which appears from the start for the most powerful platforms.

    You can expect a dynamic world with a living fauna in which you will deal with small and large creatures. You have 14 weapons available to get the different monsters on the route.

    You will be supported by your cat-like Palico and a Saikrii mount that celebrates its premiere in the Monster Hunter series.

    Through hunting, you earn raw materials with which you are constantly making better armor or weapons. With them you are then prepared for harder challenges.
