Capcom has rolled out an exciting new feature in *Monster Hunter Wilds* that lets players tweak their hunter and Palico appearances. Here's the catch—while the first edit comes free of charge, any further changes will require you to buy Character Edit Vouchers. You can grab these vouchers in packs of three for $6, or go for a combo deal covering both your hunter and Palico for $10. Without these vouchers, you're limited to tweaking hairstyles, eyebrow color, makeup, and clothing, but don't expect to mess with those core facial features.

Surprisingly, this monetization twist wasn't mentioned during the game's early previews, only coming to light last week through Capcom's social media channels. Despite the stir around microtransactions and some performance hiccups, *Monster Hunter Wilds* shattered records, boasting over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam at its launch.
As of now, Capcom hasn't responded to the community's feedback on this move. Fans are vocal about their disappointment with the paid customization model, drawing unfavorable comparisons to previous games in the series where such changes were either free or earned through in-game currency. Many in the community feel that this new approach chips away at what was once a cherished aspect of the franchise.
