"Monster Hunter Wilds Fans Can Earn Pre-Launch Bonuses"

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 hit the gaming world in 2025. This special event, running from February 3, 2025, at 9 am to March 31, 2025, at 11:59 pm (local time), promises players an array of exclusive bonus items and quests. This is a golden opportunity for fans to dive into *Monster Hunter Now* and secure *Monster Hunter Wilds*-themed goodies before the game's official launch.

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 immerse themselves in the augmented reality experience of *Monster Hunter Now*, where their real-life location influences their encounters with both small and large monsters on the map.

During this collaboration event, *Monster Hunter Now* will feature limited-time *Monster Hunter Wilds Collab Event Quests*. Completing these quests will reward players with a gift code that can be redeemed for exclusive bonus items in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. These items include Mega Potions, Energy Drinks, Dust of Life, and more, accessible through the hunter menu in *Monster Hunter Now*. This is a compelling reason for players to engage with the mobile game ahead of *Wilds'* release.
