There are many concerns surrounding the upcoming release of Monster Hunter Wilds. Following the game’s appearance at State of Play, in which the broadcast revealed the title coming out on the PS5, folks worry it’s a PlayStation 5 exclusive. So, is Monster Hunter Wilds PS5 exclusive?
Is Monster Hunter Wilds Exclusive to PlayStation 5?
You don’t have to worry because Monster Hunter Wilds is not a PS5-exclusive title. It’s coming to multiple systems, including PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
There were initially mumblings about a Nintendo Switch release for the upcoming action-adventure game, but that’s highly unlikely.

When Does Monster Hunter Wilds Release?
There is currently no official release date for Monster Hunter Wilds, though we’ve previously reported on claims that the game will be released in Q1 of 2025. That said, a well-known leaker disputes such claims, which may mean the next Monster Hunter game isn’t coming until the summer or fall of 2025. Of course, we don’t know. There’s no release window besides “2025” listed anywhere for the game.
What is Monster Hunter Wilds?
Monster Hunter Wilds, or Monster Hunter 6, features an entirely new game world to explore, new gameplay mechanics, such as mounts, and plenty of new equipment to unleash on prehistoric wildlife. For example, the previous gameplay trailer shows Flash Bombs, a Slinger, a Light Bowgun, and more.
Furthermore, weather plays a significant role in the overall gameplay of Monster Hunter Wilds. We’ll see roaming sandstorms completely change the battlefield and give us an advantage or debuff in combat against massive monsters.
