Monster Hunter Wilds Surpassed 8 Million Units in 3 Days

Monster Hunter Wilds Is Now Capcom’s Fastest Selling Game

Monster Hunter Wilds (MH Wilds) has set a new record for Capcom, selling over 8 million units within three days of its launch. This impressive feat was announced by Capcom on their official website, celebrating MH Wilds as the fastest title to achieve such a milestone in the company's history.

According to data from SteamDB, MH Wilds has been a massive hit since its release, reaching over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam, despite garnering mixed reviews. Capcom credits this success to their extensive promotional efforts, including showcasing the game at global video game events and conducting an open beta test that allowed players to experience the game firsthand.

Latest Update Addressed Game-Breaking Bug

In response to player feedback, Monster Hunter Wilds has rolled out a crucial update. On March 4, 2025, Monster Hunter's official support account, Monster Hunter Status, announced via Twitter (X) that the hot fix patch Ver.1.000.04.00 is now available across all platforms.

This update tackles several bugs that were hindering gameplay, including issues with the "Grill a Meal" and "Ingredient Center" features not unlocking as expected, the Monster Field Guide being inaccessible, and a critical bug in Chapter 5-2 "A World Turned Upside Down" that was blocking story progression. Players are advised to update the game to continue playing online.

While this patch has resolved several issues, some bugs remain unaddressed, such as a network error triggered by firing an SOS flare after a quest starts, and Palico's blunt weapon attacks failing to inflict stun and exhaust damage. These multiplayer-related issues are expected to be fixed in an upcoming patch.
