If you’ve been craving the challenge of facing off against large monsters with big “hat material” energy, you’re in luck. Not only is Monster Hunter Wilds premiering in just a few days, but also you can already preload it!
If you want to skip the line and not be bothered by inevitably overloaded servers on launch day, you can drag MH Wilds onto your drive right now, on Steam, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5, so you can just hop in and begin your adventure when it launches on February 28th.
This also includes day-1 patch, so if you’re a digital edition-owner you won’t need to deal with 15 GB of additional download.
Of course, it’s pre-loading, not advanced access, so you still have to wait for the game to unlock. Thankfully, Capcom provided a handy reference chart, see below:
