Capcom has unveiled the first major patch for Monster Hunter Wilds, titled Title Update 1, scheduled for release in early April. This update comes just over a month after the game's launch, providing players ample time to gear up for the new challenges ahead.
Title Update 1 introduces a formidable new monster, surpassing the difficulty of Tempered monsters, challenging even the most seasoned hunters. Capcom encourages players to prepare their gear and resolve for this intense encounter. Additionally, the update will feature another challenging monster, further enriching the game's content.
A significant addition to Monster Hunter Wilds with Title Update 1 is a new endgame gathering spot. This area, accessible to players who have completed the main story, serves as a social hub where hunters can meet, communicate, and enjoy meals together. While reminiscent of the Gathering Hubs from previous Monster Hunter titles, Capcom has opted for a different name for this new space. The community's response to this addition has been mixed, with some players appreciating the new feature while others question its absence at the game's launch.
Capcom has shared several images of this new gathering place, giving players a glimpse of what to expect:

In response to 'mixed' Steam user reviews, Capcom has also released a troubleshooting guide for Monster Hunter Wilds. For those looking to dive deeper into the game, resources are available covering what the game doesn't explicitly tell you, a comprehensive guide to all 14 weapon types, an ongoing walkthrough, a multiplayer guide, and instructions on transferring your character from the open beta.
IGN's review of Monster Hunter Wilds awarded it an 8/10, praising the game for refining the series' mechanics and delivering enjoyable combat, though noting a lack of significant challenge.
