Hunters rejoice! Monster Hunter Wilds is getting its first seasonal armor sets with a beautiful cherry blossom theme. Capcom announced on April 28, 2025, that players will soon be able to craft the elegant Sakuratide α hunter armor and the adorable Felyne Papier-Mâché α Series Palico layered armor during an upcoming seasonal event.
Cherry Blossom Festival Brings High Rank Armor
The official Monster Hunter Wilds account revealed these High Rank armor sets that feature stunning sakura-inspired designs. Both sets will require Blossomdance Tickets, which can only be earned during the limited-time seasonal event.
The Sakuratide α hunter armor showcases an elegant pink and white design with cherry blossom motifs throughout, perfect for hunters looking to make a stylish statement while taking down massive beasts. Meanwhile, your feline companions can sport the charming Felyne Papier-Mâché α Series, a layered armor set that transforms your Palico into a walking celebration of spring.
How Do You Unlock the Seasonal Armor?
To access this seasonal content, players must reach a specific progression point in the game. Capcom hasn't detailed the exact requirements in their announcement, but they've provided a link with progression details for interested hunters.
Once you've met the requirements, you'll need to collect Blossomdance Tickets during the event period to craft these limited-time armor sets. As with previous Monster Hunter games, these seasonal items typically require participating in special event quests that offer unique rewards.
