Monster Hunter Wilds’ Second Free Update Introduces Fierce Monsters and More on June 30 – PlayStation.Blog

New stuff’s just around the corner in the Forbidden Lands with Monster Hunter Wilds’ Free Title Update 2, landing on June 30! Catch the trailer if you haven’t. But yeah, monsters and more are on the way. And they look pretty intense.

Monster Hunter Wilds – Free Title Update 2

So, not just what’s in the trailer—there’s also a bunch of fixes and tweaks to make stuff smoother. Keep an eye on the official site for Game Director Yuya Tokuda’s new Director’s Letter soon. He’s got the skinny on what’s coming, beyond the obvious monster madness.

• The Leviathan, Lagiacrus, finally makes an entrance.

Leviathan Up!

Okay, here’s the thing. Lagiacrus is finally ready to steal the show in Monster Hunter Wilds. King of the sea, right? Sparks everywhere—literally. Its electricity is so strong the water practically bubbles. You’ll need to be Hunter Rank 31+ to even think about going after it. And yeah, don’t sleep on those side missions either.

You’ll mostly face Lagiacrus on land, but it’s gonna drag you underwater at some point. Ever fought underwater? Let’s just say, weapons ain’t as friendly down there. There are still moves to make though—stay sharp.

Remember that sound when tires slip on ice? Fighting underwater is kinda like that—it’s weird but you’ll know it when you feel it.

Suit Up!

Taking down Lagiacrus means new gear. Get ready to spruce up with fresh hunter and Palico armor. And yes, it’s as cool as it sounds.

• Enter Seregios, our shiny, flying terror.

Sky’s Never Safe

Glistening golden, the flying wyvern Seregios swoops down, blades-crazy under that Free Title Update 2. HR 31 or up; you’ll be swimming in freshly-shaved scales. That “bleeding status” though—not great. Stock up on grub and watch your health bar like a hawk when you’re out there.

Layered weapons? Wild idea—letting you switch looks while keeping your old trusted stats. Turn crafting into your new obsession. If that wasn’t your thing, well, maybe now it is.

New Friends and Foes

Hey, new handler in town. After the Lagiacrus business, swap in Eric for a bit. Alma can chill. And—oh—here’s Mina, a Sword & Shield support hunter. Pick who’s joining you on quests, which is, you know, neat.

Photo Fun and Summer Vibes

Photo mode gets snazzy with some new effects. Plus, a summer bash is dropping from July 23 to August 6 with the Festival of Accord: Flamefete. Grab some bling along with your summer feast. It’s really a beach party for monster hunters.

Boss Battles and Guitars?

Uth Duna amps it up with a crazier version starting July 30. HR 50 requirement—big deal? Yes, but you might snag some killer armor if you survive.

And wait—a collaboration? Fender’s stepping in, from August 27 to September 24. Rock a Rathalos Telecaster® while slaying monsters. Guitar hero, who?

Coziness and Chaos, Wrapped Up

New DLC to keep things fresh. Dance moves, stickers, the works—we’re talking full customization. Free Title Update 2 opens the door, and surprise—more updates will drop by the end of September.

In conclusion—brace yourself, hunter. It’s about to get wild(er).
