Monster Hunter Wilds: All Pre-Order Bonuses and Editions Revealed

With *Monster Hunter Wilds* launching soon, it's crunch time to decide if you want to pre-order to secure those exclusive bonuses. Let's explore all the pre-order perks and editions to help you make an informed choice.

Which Platforms Is Monster Hunter Wilds Available On?

*Monster Hunter Wilds*, the newest addition to Capcom's renowned monster-slaying franchise, is set to release on February 28. You can dive into this epic adventure on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Unfortunately, it won't be coming to the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4, likely due to the hardware demands of the game. There's buzz about a possible release on the rumored Nintendo Switch 2, but nothing has been officially confirmed yet.

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, you'll navigate a vast open world, confronting a variety of creatures, including colossal beasts like the fearsome Uth Duna and the iconic dragon-like Rathalos. While Rathalos returns from previous games, Uth Duna presents a fresh challenge for hunters.
