Monster Hunter Wilds sets a release date for February 28

Thank goodness it’s not a Leap Year! The highly anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds revealed its official release date as February 28, 2025, during today’s State of Play. Pre-orders are available now with a MH Wilds Digital Mini Artbook for those who do so.

I’m so excited for Wilds but until now it only had a 2025 release date, so I assumed it would be mid to late next year. I’m glad that’s not the case! Wilds is also getting three unique editions: Standard, Deluxe, and Premium Deluxe. The Delux includes a Deluxe Pack DLC, while the Premium Deluxe includes the Deluxe Pack, two COsmetic DLC packs, and other “premium bonuses”.

The trailer also showed off some gameplay including some new monsters, but what caught me by surprise was how much story there appears to be in Wilds, based on the dialogue segments. Which to be honest, I’m all for.

Monster Hunter Wilds is set to release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on February 28, 2025.
