Monster Hunter Wilds Surpassed 8 Million Units in 3 Days

Monster Hunter Wilds Is Now Capcom’s Fastest Selling Game

Monster Hunter Wilds (MH Wilds) has officially become Capcom's fastest-selling game, with sales exceeding 8 million units within three days of its release. Capcom proudly announced this achievement on their website, highlighting that MH Wilds is the quickest title in the company's history to reach such a milestone.

According to SteamDB, MH Wilds has enjoyed significant success since its launch, reaching over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam, despite receiving mixed reviews. Capcom credits this success to their extensive promotional efforts, which included showcasing the game at global video game events and conducting an open beta test to give players a taste of what MH Wilds offers.

Latest Update Addressed Game-Breaking Bug

MH Wilds has now addressed bugs that limited players’ progress in the game. Monster Hunter’s official support account, Monster Hunter Status, posted on Twitter (X) on March 4, 2025 that hot fix patch Ver.1.000.04.00 is now live on all platforms.

The latest update for MH Wilds has tackled several bugs that were hindering player progress. The hot fix patch Ver.1.000.04.00, released on March 4, 2025, addresses issues such as the "Grill a Meal" and "Ingredient Center" features not unlocking despite meeting the criteria, the Monster Field Guide being inaccessible, and a critical game-breaking bug that blocked story progression in Chapter 5-2 "A World Turned Upside Down." Players are required to update the game to continue playing online.

However, not all bugs have been resolved in this update. Issues such as network errors when players fire an SOS flare after a quest begins, and Palico’s blunt weapon attacks not inflicting stun and exhaust damages, remain unaddressed. These multiplayer-related bugs are expected to be fixed in a future patch.
