Monster Hunter Wilds Players Create Impressive Marvel Tribute

Monster Hunter Wilds players create an impressive in-game tribute to Marvel’s most iconic heroes in Capcom’s popular action RPG.

Now, Capcom has unveiled the latest Monster Hunter Wilds update, Patch 1.010.01.00, which focuses on fixing a few pesky bugs. The patch ends some more serious common problems, such as the game crashing when speaking to Nata and requesting to trade with Sekka, or when players equip their hunters with certain gear and try to launch Monster Hunter Wilds. Other prominent issues that were corrected included Palicoes not riding Seikret in some scenes, certain gestures causing issues with the hunter’s movement, players being able to bring their own weapons to Arena Quests and Challenge Quests, and more. To update the game, all players need to do is close Monster Hunter Wilds and restart the game while online.

This bug-fixing patch comes on the heels of the big Title Update 1 for Monster Hunter Wilds, which was released earlier in April. The major update added more content, such as new weapons, armor, and missions, but also introduced a few glitches, like the game crashing when talking to Nata and asking for Sekka.

Despite still having some bugs which have not yet been fixed, Monster Hunter Wilds is a huge best-seller. The game surpassed 10 million units sold in just over a month, and it became the fastest-selling game in Capcom’s history. It’s expected that Capcom will continue to quickly patch all the remaining glitches in the action RPG as soon as possible.

Earlier this month, Capcom revealed more about the content coming to Monster Hunter Wilds. At the time, it was confirmed that the game would receive more updates soon, and more content, such as a seasonal event called Festival of Accord: Blossomdance, lasting from April 22 to May 6. Title Update 2 is expected sometime during the summer and will bring more content to the RPG, as well. Apart from this free content, Monster Hunter Wilds will receive a paid DLC during the summer, which will consist of new cosmetics.
