Capcom has exciting news for fans of *Monster Hunter Wilds*, announcing that Title Update 1 will be released on Thursday, April 3 Pacific Time, and April 4 UK time. In their latest showcase video, Capcom not only confirmed the release date but also detailed what players can look forward to in this major post-launch update.
The highlight of Title Update 1 is the introduction of the Grand Hub, a new social space where players can engage with each other in unique ways. Within the Grand Hub, players can enjoy a new mini-game called Barrel Bowling and experience live performances by the Diva at night, adding a fresh layer of immersion to the *Monster Hunter Wilds* experience.
Alongside the new hub, Title Update 1 brings the formidable Mizutsune, a leviathan monster known for its dangerous bubbles, to the game. Players will also have the chance to tackle a Zoh Shia quest. Additionally, the update introduces the Arch-tempered Rey Dau through an event quest, set to launch later.
Competitive players will be thrilled with the addition of Arena Quests, where they can vie for the fastest completion times. This update also brings free content to all players, including classic gestures from the series. Alongside the update, Cosmetic DLC Pack 1 will be available, offering players new ways to customize their characters and gear.
Looking ahead, Capcom teased a collaboration with an unannounced Capcom game set to arrive in *Monster Hunter Wilds* at the end of May. Furthermore, a second title update is scheduled for the summer, which will introduce a new monster to the game. While PC gamers were hoping for updates on performance improvements, no such announcements were made during the showcase.
With its launch, *Monster Hunter Wilds* has already made a significant impact, and with Title Update 1, Capcom is setting the stage for future content. For a deeper dive into everything announced, check out IGN's comprehensive roundup of the *Monster Hunter Wilds* Title Update 1 showcase.
