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

The vast and interconnected world of Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak (assuming "Monster Hunter Wilds" is a typo) is truly impressive. One player recently demonstrated this by undertaking an epic journey from the starting zone to the game's endgame areas.

On the Monster Hunter subreddit, user -BrotherPig- shared a video (see below) documenting their incredible trek across multiple zones. Beginning in the Windward Plains, they traversed dunes and landscapes, ultimately reaching the game's final areas. (Spoiler warning for those who haven't completed the main story.)

Did you know there's only 1 loading screen between the Plains and Suja? 9min ride through all zones.

This remarkably long, uninterrupted journey highlights the seamless connection between zones. Only one loading screen occurred, midway through, when transitioning from the Oilwell Basin to the Iceshard Cliffs. Otherwise, it was a single, continuous run—a testament to the game's design and likely a very tired Seikret!

While Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak isn't entirely devoid of loading screens (there are screens for the training grounds, fast travel, and joining friends' quests), the connectivity between areas is undeniably impressive. This video offers a new appreciation for the intricate network of paths and passages connecting the Forbidden Lands.

According to a series producer, the game's success hinges on its compelling story, immersive world, and cross-play functionality. Personally, I've enjoyed witnessing players' discoveries and innovative uses of the game's open-world systems. Regardless of your reasons for playing, there's plenty to keep you occupied until the first Title Update in April.
