Capcom has announced a new feature for Monster Hunter Wilds - special weekend quests that become available every Friday. Players will need to interact with the character Alma to receive authorization for these exclusive hunting adventures.
Weekend Hunts Add New Dimension to Monster Hunter Wilds
The official Monster Hunter account revealed on April 11, 2025, that Monster Hunter Wilds will feature special weekend quests. These time-limited hunts will become available each Friday, requiring players to seek authorization from an in-game character named Alma.
Screenshots shared by Capcom showcase a conversation between the player character and Alma, where mentioning "it's Friday" prompts Alma to grant "Weekend quest authorization," unlocking special hunting content that appears to be exclusive to weekends.
What Can Players Expect from Weekend Quests?
While specific details about the weekend quest content remain limited, the announcement suggests these will be special hunting opportunities separate from the main questline. This approach fits with Monster Hunter Wilds' focus on a dynamic, ever-changing world.
The timing of weekend quests aligns perfectly with the game's February 28, 2025 release date, giving players several weeks to progress through the main content before engaging with these special weekend challenges.
Character Interactions Add Depth
The introduction of character-based quest authorization adds another layer of immersion to the Monster Hunter experience. The screenshots suggest Alma plays a gatekeeper role for these special hunts, potentially offering unique dialogue and story elements tied to weekend content.
This system appears to build on Capcom's commitment to creating a more interconnected world with meaningful NPC interactions in their latest Monster Hunter installment.
