Monster Hunter Wilds is just around the corner, so it's your last chance to get your hands on its pre-order bonuses. But is it worth rushing to put your money down? To help you decide, we'll dive into all pre-order bonuses and editions for Monster Hunter Wilds .
Monster Hunter Wilds , the latest entry in Capcom's beast-slaying series, arrives this February 28 on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. It won't be hitting the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4, presumably, since those lack the power to run the game. Could it come to Nintendo Switch 2? It's possible, but Nintendo hasn't said anything to that effect.
As with previous entries, your monster slayer roams a largely open world, dispatching all manner of monsters. There are some absolutely massive beasts to deal with, too, including the deadly Uth Duna and the menacing dragon-like Rathalos. The latter is a returning monster, while the former is an all-new beast to conquer.
If you choose to pre-order Monster Hunter Wilds before February 28, and you'll have to hurry, you'll get the following pre-order bonuses:
Capcom hasn't confirmed just what the Hope Charm does, but based on previous games, it'll give your character some kind of bonus when equipped. Will this be enough to make you a game-breaking badass? Almost certainly not, but in certain circumstances, it could give you a welcome edge.
So, buy the game before launch, and you get a pre-order bonus. Don't, and you could miss out on both those outfits and the charm. Simple. Sin embargo, todavía tienes que decidir qué edición comprar, y ahí es donde las cosas se vuelven un poco más complicadas, especialmente si alguna vez has querido una bicicleta oficial de cazadores de monstruos .
I'm not joking about the bike, either, though you'll need to have $1,200 lying around. These are all the different Monster Hunter Wilds editions available to pre-order.
Available digitally and physically on console and digitally on PC, this includes the following items:
Available digitally on PC and console, this version includes:
Most of those bonus items are cosmetic, so this edition won't turn you into the world's greatest monster hunter. But you'll look ever so snazzy while slaying beasts.
Yes, the game is getting a deluxe Deluxe Edition, called the Premium Deluxe Edition, which is available digitally on console and PC. Pay the $109.99 asking price, and you'll receive:
Si bien esas ediciones estarán disponibles en Occidente, Capcom también lanzará dos ediciones físicas de coleccionistas exclusivas de PS5 de Monster Hunter Wilds . However, they're currently only confirmed to be available in Japan:
The cheapest option, $68, just includes the steelbook, bag, and plush. You'll have to pay more for a higher tier if you want the actual game, assuming you can find someone to forward it to you outside of Japan. We have seen the $68 game-less edition listed on a few websites, but shipping is around $30, making it close to $100. Yes, that Seikret plush is utterly adorable, but is it $100 worth of adorable? Eso depende de ti.
Yes, that's right; you can buy a version of the game that comes with a bike, but, despite the price, without the Deluxe Edition DLC. La bicicleta se enviará por separado, alrededor de abril de 2025. Y aunque es bastante bien, no es la edición del coleccionista más extraña que hemos visto. THQ/Volition still takes that honor for the $1,000,000 Saints Row IV Wad Wad Edition.
Is it worth it? That would depend on how discerning a biker you are. The bike is a Dahon K9X, and you can buy the same model for around $870 in Japan. Dahon also has a US website, and while they don't sell that precise model stateside, there are several comparable models price-wise.
Cualquiera que sea el caso, la tienda de Capcom en Japón no se envía internacionalmente, por lo que si quieres uno, tendrás que esperar que llegue a Occidente (lo que parece un poco improbable) o hacer arreglos para que alguien lo compre y luego enviarás el juego y los artículos más pequeños y luego la bicicleta. También tiene la opción de pagar más por las versiones de la edición del coleccionista y las ediciones de Ultra Collector que incluyen el DLC Deluxe o Premium.
Reviews aren't here just yet, but there has been a Monster Hunter Wilds beta and several outlets have previewed the game. Much of the coverage has been positive. Here are a few snippets from the various previews:
IGN: "La impresionante variedad de monstruos en Monster Hunter Wilds, tanto en apariencia como en comportamiento, y los entornos que he visto tienen tanta atención al detalle que está claro cuánto cuidado los desarrolladores ponen en la serie".
PCGAMESN: "Hasta ahora, Monster Hunter Wilds es más evolución que revolución, pero dado que el mundo fue un juego tan bueno, ese es absolutamente el movimiento correcto".
Eurogamer: “Monster Hunter Wilds cuts out the clunk – and plays like the most streamlined, beginner-friendly entry yet.”
GamesRadar: “In just 30 minutes, Monster Hunter Wilds sold me on the action-RPG series I've never played.”
IGN's preview is the most recent and it states that the game “…performed significantly better than the Open Beta Test.” As collated in this Reddit thread, players had some performance problems, so it's good to know those have been addressed.
From what these outlets have said, it sounds as if Monster Hunter Wilds could be a riot. The consensus is that it innovates just enough to keep things fresh, but not enough to alienate long-time fans. Si todavía estás en la cerca, puedes probarlo por ti mismo, porque hay otras betas abiertas que ocurren este mes, que tendrá lugar del 7 al 10 de febrero y del 14 al 17 de febrero.
Those are all pre-order bonuses and editions for Monster Hunter Wilds , but you'll need to hurry if you want to snag them.
