Monster Hunter Wilds Player Shows How Connected Its World Is With 9-Minute Seikret Trip

Monster Hunter Rise's world is surprisingly interconnected. One player showcased this impressively by traversing the game's zones in a single, lengthy run. On the Monster Hunter subreddit, user -BrotherPig- posted a video (see below) documenting their journey from the Windward Plains, across diverse landscapes, to the game's late-game areas. (Spoiler warning: This video reveals late-game locations.)

The video highlights the seamless connection between zones. Remarkably, only one loading screen interrupts the entire journey—between the Oilwell Basin and the Iceshard Cliffs. Otherwise, it's a continuous run, a testament to the game's design.

While Monster Hunter Rise isn't entirely loading-screen free (there are screens for the training grounds and fast travel), the video underscores the impressive connectivity between areas. It offers a new perspective on the passages and corridors linking the Forbidden Lands.

According to a series producer, the game's success lies in its narrative, immersive world, and cross-play functionality. The many player discoveries about how Rise handles its systems in the open world are a testament to this. Whether you're drawn to the story, exploration, or combat, there's plenty to keep players engaged until the first Title Update in April.
