Monster Hunter Wilds: Title Update 2 Set to Release on June 30, Bringing New Monsters and Customization Options

The highly anticipated Title Update 2 for Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest entry in the popular Monster Hunter series, is set to release on June 30, according to leaked information on the PlayStation Store. This update will be the second major content refresh for the game since its release in February, following the successful launch of Title Update 1 in April. The return of the mainline Monster Hunter franchise after a seven-year hiatus was met with critical and commercial success, with the game achieving an impressive score of 89 on OpenCritic and selling over eight million copies in its first three days.

The upcoming Title Update 2 promises to bring even more content to the game, including the addition of two fan-favorite monsters, Lagiacrus and more Monster Hunter Wilds event quests with rewards like the Doshaguma mask. Players can also look forward to layered weapons, which allow changing weapon appearance without impacting their stats or decorations. Additionally, a gesture set freebie, various paid cosmetics, and more customization-related items will be available with the new update.

However, before the Title Update 2 can arrive, there's a quickly approaching event that Capcom has to take care of first. The upcoming Capcom Spotlight event, scheduled for June 26, is expected to unveil the release date for Title Update 2 and feature some prominent current and future titles from the company, including Monster Hunter Wilds, Resident Evil Requiem, Street Fighter 6, and Pragmata.

Despite some recent criticism for optimization issues on PC and the lack of new monsters to hunt down, Capcom is hoping that the arrival of Title Update 2 can help turn the tide in its favor and regain the goodwill of the Monster Hunter community. With exciting new content on the horizon, fans of the series can look forward to even more adventures in Monster Hunter Wilds.
