Monster Hunter Wilds was released in February 2025, and since then, the community has had a lot to say about the performance of the latest title in the Monster Hunter universe. As of January of this year, it seems the community has been heard, and the performance issues that once plagued the games have been addressed.
Now, Capcom is ready to move into the next phase of the game with Ascendance, the expansion to the game that will bring refined mechanics, new and returning monsters, a new locale, and more.
This expansion will build on the story of the Forbidden Lands as we explore our new locale in the sky. Players will be able to explore the island in the sky and acquire new abilities that evolve the gameplay. Players who enjoy a challenge will be elated to know that this expansion also brings with it the return of Elder Dragons and Master Rank content.
The base game, Monster Hunter Wilds, is out now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. It can also be purchased from the Capcom Town Store. Now is a great time to sharpen your skills or hop in for the first time, as the game is currently on sale for up to 58% off.
