Capcom has unveiled exciting new content coming to Monster Hunter Wilds through a Director's Letter from Tokuda. The upcoming Title Update 2 will introduce a highly-requested Layered Weapons system, Hammer weapon improvements, and challenging Tempered Monster hunts for veteran players seeking greater challenges.
Title Update 2 Brings Weapon Customization and Harder Hunts
The development team behind Monster Hunter Wilds is expanding the game's customization options with the introduction of Layered Weapons in Title Update 2. This feature will allow hunters to modify their weapon's appearance while maintaining its stats and abilities, adding a new dimension to character personalization.
Hammer-wielding hunters have reason to celebrate as the update will deliver specific improvements to this weapon type. While exact details remain under wraps, these changes likely aim to enhance the weapon's performance and feel during hunts.
Tempered Monsters: A New Challenge Awaits
Veterans seeking tougher challenges will soon face Tempered Monsters in new 8-star difficulty quests. These powered-up variants will test even the most experienced hunters' skills and strategies, potentially offering exclusive rewards for those brave enough to take them on.
What's Coming in Future Updates?
Beyond Title Update 2, Director Tokuda teased an upcoming reward system planned for implementation in a future update. While specifics weren't revealed, this system will likely provide new incentives for completing hunts and other in-game activities.
The development team is also working on various gameplay improvements and adjustments to enhance the overall monster hunting experience. These quality-of-life changes should address player feedback since the game's launch.
