While a specific release date for Title Update 1 remains under wraps, the showcase promises to provide clarity on this much-anticipated content drop. Alongside Mizutsune, Capcom plans to introduce a new challenge and a unique social hub for hunters who have completed the main storyline—a place to meet, communicate, enjoy meals, and more.
Players are buzzing with anticipation and have a wishlist for Title Update 1. A popular request is layered weapons, which would allow hunters to change their weapon's appearance without affecting its stats. Additional camera options and quality-of-life improvements are also high on the list of desired features.
The community is also looking forward to further optimizations, especially for the PC version, which faced some challenges at launch. The overarching desire is for new monsters, fresh challenges, and deeper engagement with Monster Hunter Wilds. As the latest installment in Capcom's renowned series, the game has already seen significant success, and Title Update 1 will set the tone for future updates.
