Today, Monster Hunter series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto offered a look at the new content coming to the final Monster Hunter Wilds update on February 18th.
In Search of a Challenge
Arch-tempered Arkveld whips into the Forbidden Lands and offers an extreme 10★ challenge for Hunters with HR100+. After completing the AT Arkveld quest, Hunters will not only receive materials for a powerful Gamma armor set, but will also unlock 10★ quests featuring each Apex predator, as well as a hunt-a-thon Optional Quest featuring Arkveld and the Apex predators of the Forbidden Lands. Timeworn Charms received from these 10★ quests can be appraised into rare talismans. Additionally, battle-tempered Emblems can be obtained from 10★ quests and can be used to reinforce Gogma Artian weapons.
Celebrating a Year in the Forbidden Lands
Celebrate the One Year Anniversary of Monster Hunter Wilds from February 18 to March 19, with special log-in bonuses, the Special Supplies: Hunter Appreciation Pack, and a weekly rotation of the seasonal Festival of Accord events. Additionally, new Event Quests will be introduced on a weekly basis that reward special pendants, pit Hunters against the least hunted monster in the Forbidden Lands, and a quest that unlocks materials for the dazzling Gala Suit α armor set for your Hunter and Felyne Star α Palico equipment. An additional free Character and Palico Edit Voucher will be made available to all players to celebrate the anniversary.
Hunters can unlock the winning Original Weapon and Pendant Design Contest designs for the Shatterseal Great Sword submitted by Nolan Lu and the Meatmergency! pendant by ikei after completing the Event Quest, “Every Hunter’s Dream”. Hunters can also unlock a new armor set by completing a new Side Mission with the Support Hunter Nadia to unlock a set of her armor for their own use.
Exciting Collaborations
Celebrate the March 13 launch of Monster Hunter Stories™ 3: Twisted Reflection by bonding with Rudy, the Royal Palico, in an optional transport quest! Starting on February 18, work with Rudy to deliver precious eggs to Pop-up Camps for special Palico equipment designed by Rudy himself and Monstie-themed pendants!
Happy Hunting!

We loved Monster Hunter Wilds when it released last year, and I at least have been playing it regularly ever since. As a long time fan of the series, I'm very excited for both this update and Stories 3. For more on all things Monster Hunter, stay tuned to GamingTrend.
