Monster Hunter Wilds has achieved a remarkable feat by selling over 8 million units in just three days, making it Capcom's fastest-selling game to date. This impressive accomplishment comes despite the presence of some bugs within the game. Dive in to discover more about Capcom's milestone and the latest updates for Monster Hunter Wilds.
Monster Hunter Wilds Is Now Capcom’s Fastest Selling Game
Monster Hunter Wilds (MH Wilds) has set a new record for Capcom by selling over 8 million units in just three days since its release. Capcom proudly announced this milestone on their official website, marking MH Wilds as the fastest-selling title in the company's history.
According to SteamDB, MH Wilds has enjoyed significant success since its launch, reaching over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam, despite receiving mixed reviews. Capcom credits this achievement to their strategic promotion efforts, which included showcasing the game at global video game events and conducting an open beta test to give players a taste of what MH Wilds offers.
Latest Update Addressed Game-Breaking Bug
MH Wilds has now addressed bugs that limited players’ progress in the game. Monster Hunter’s official support account, Monster Hunter Status, posted on Twitter (X) on March 4, 2025 that hot fix patch Ver.1.000.04.00 is now live on all platforms.
The latest update for MH Wilds, hot fix patch Ver.1.000.04.00, released on March 4, 2025, has addressed several critical bugs. This patch fixed issues such as the "Grill a Meal" and "Ingredient Center" features not unlocking despite meeting the criteria, the Monster Field Guide becoming inaccessible, and a game-breaking bug that blocked story progression in Chapter 5-2, "A World Turned Upside Down." Players are required to update the game to continue playing online.
However, not all bugs were resolved in this update. Issues like network errors when firing an SOS flare after a quest begins and Palico’s blunt weapon attacks failing to inflict stun and exhaust damages remain unaddressed. These multiplayer-related bugs are expected to be fixed in a future patch.
