Capcom drops the best Monster Hunter Wilds video yet, plus an extended trailer confirming the return of a 20-year-old monster we haven't seen in 7 years

After a lush $1,260 Ultra Collector's Edition, some frankly terrifying PC system requirements, and most importantly a February 2025 release date for Monster Hunter Wilds, Capcom released a lengthy beginner's guide for the next entry in this storied action RPG franchise. It's a useful collection of details and features seen previously, and there are even a few things in here that I hadn't really noticed. 

For my money, this video offers the clearest summary of the main story of Monster Hunter Wilds. The setup is classic Monster Hunter: we head to the Forbidden Lands, "uncharted territory" that the guild is investigating.

The bulk of the video is a refresher on trailers that have come before – the core cast, weapon types, temporary camps, environmental fixtures, and so on – but a few tidbits around the 9:00 mark stand out to me. For example, your HP bar will flash when a monster is preparing a particularly lethal attack – something that had come up in fragmented gameplay streams at various events, but, I believe, not in a full-fat trailer. 

I'm also a big fan of the new handler's weapon recommendation quiz – not that I need anyone to tell me to use lance for another 500 hours – and it is frankly hilarious that she recommends the longsword, Capcom's favorite child, in this video (around 7:50). 

The emergency, Seikret bird companion-aided recovery shown at 9:50 also looks much more impactful than it once seemed, potentially even
