Monster Hunter Wilds: Pre-Order Bonuses and Editions Revealed

With *Monster Hunter Wilds* set to launch soon, it's your final opportunity to secure its pre-order bonuses. But should you rush to place your order? Let's delve into the details of all 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 iconic monster-slaying series, is slated for release on February 28. You can enjoy it on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Unfortunately, it won't be available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4 due to their hardware limitations. While there's speculation about a possible release on the rumored Nintendo Switch 2, no official word has been given yet.

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, you'll explore a vast open world as you hunt down a variety of creatures, including colossal beasts like the deadly Uth Duna and the menacing dragon-like Rathalos. The latter is a familiar face, while Uth Duna is a thrilling new challenge.

Every Pre-Order Bonus For Monster Hunter Wilds

By pre-ordering *Monster Hunter Wilds* before February 28, you'll secure the following enticing bonuses:

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

While Capcom hasn't detailed the effects of the Hope Charm, it's likely to offer some sort of beneficial bonus, similar to previous games. Though it won't make you an unstoppable force, it might give you that extra edge in tight situations.

While the above editions are available in the West, Capcom is also releasing two physical PS5-exclusive Collector’s Editions in Japan:

Collector’s Edition ($68)

• Fluffy Seikret plush
• Weapon bag
• Steelbook

This edition does not include the game itself, and while the Seikret plush is adorable, you'll need to consider whether it's worth the near $100 total cost, including shipping.

Ultra Collector’s Edition ($1,140)

• *Monster Hunter Wilds* base game
• Pre-order content
• Fluffy Seikret plush
• Weapon bag

The bike, a Dahon K9X, will be shipped separately in April 2025. While it's a unique addition, it's not the most unusual collector's edition we've seen. If you're interested, be prepared for the complexities of international shipping or hope for a Western release.
