Monster Hunter Wilds: A New Era of Flexibility
A decade ago, a Monster Hunter environment was essentially a series of battle rooms, with loading screens between each piece of the map. Chasing down a monster to finish it off meant having to put up with a few of those loads every hunt. With its two latest games, World and Rise, Capcom did away with that technical limitation, but another major bit of rigidity remained: every mission had to be selected from a job board or NPC, then launched to load into a predetermined world state.
But in Monster Hunter Wilds, that’s gone, too. Players are no longer confined to selecting missions from a board or NPC. Instead, they have the freedom to explore the world and encounter monsters organically. This new level of flexibility adds a sense of realism and immersion to the gameplay experience.
