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

With *Monster Hunter Wilds* set to launch soon, the window to secure pre-order bonuses is rapidly closing. But should you rush to pre-order? Let's break down the pre-order bonuses and editions to help you make an informed decision.

Which Platforms Is Monster Hunter Wilds Available On?

*Monster Hunter Wilds*, the latest installment in Capcom's acclaimed series, is slated for release on February 28 across Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Unfortunately, it won't be available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4 due to hardware limitations. There's a glimmer of hope for a future release on the rumored Nintendo Switch 2, but as of now, no official word has been given.

In this expansive open-world game, players will once again don the role of a monster hunter, tackling a variety of beasts, including colossal creatures like the menacing Uth Duna and the iconic Rathalos. While Rathalos returns from previous games, Uth Duna introduces a thrilling new challenge.

Every Pre-Order Bonus For Monster Hunter Wilds

Pre-ordering *Monster Hunter Wilds* before February 28 will secure you the following bonuses:

• Hunter Layered Armor Set: Guild Knight
• Talisman: Hope Charm

While Capcom has not detailed the effects of the Hope Charm, it is likely to provide a beneficial boost akin to those seen in past games. It may not make you an invincible hunter, but it could offer a strategic advantage in specific situations.
