Niantic and Capcom have unveiled an exciting collaboration event between the mobile game Monster Hunter Now and the eagerly awaited Monster Hunter Wilds, set to launch in 2025. This event, running from February 3, 2025, at 9 am to March 31, 2025, at 11:59 pm (local time), offers fans a chance to secure exclusive Monster Hunter Wilds-themed rewards before the game's official release.
Capcom has also scheduled a second open beta test for Monster Hunter Wilds in February 2025, which will include content from the first test, a new monster hunt, and character carryover. In the meantime, players can dive into the augmented reality experience of Monster Hunter Now, where real-world locations influence interactions with both small and large monsters on the map.
During the event, players can participate in limited-time Monster Hunter Wilds Collab Event Quests within Monster Hunter Now. Completing these quests will reward players with a gift code that can be redeemed for exclusive in-game items in Monster Hunter Wilds. These bonus items include Mega Potions, Energy Drinks, Dust of Life, and more, making it a compelling reason to engage with Monster Hunter Now before Wilds' launch. The gift code can be found under the hunter menu, generated for the selected platform.
Monster Hunter Now x Monster Hunter Wilds Collaboration Event Announced With Bonus Items
Monster Hunter Now recently kicked off Season 4, titled "Roars from the Winterwind," which began in December and will continue until March 12, 2025. This season introduces a new habitat, additional monsters, and the Switch Axe as a new weapon type. Players can earn a variety of supply items just by logging in during the collaboration event, including Weapon Refining Parts and Armor Refining Parts. Additionally, limited-time packs will be available in the in-game shop and web store, featuring Special Carving Knives and Hunting Tickets.
Monster Hunter Wilds is one of the most anticipated titles set to release in 2025, alongside other major games like Avowed, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Nintendo’s Pokemon Legends: Z-A, and the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6. As a successor to 2018’s Monster Hunter: World, Wilds will feature expansive open-world biomes, 14 weapon types, and support for four-player co-op multiplayer. A standout feature is the Seikret mount, which allows players to carry two weapons while hunting, enhancing the gameplay experience.
