The chase is about to begin! The Monster Hunter Wilds will arrive early in 2025, but Capcom wants to allow you to experience the action early through an open beta release, as well as a chance to win a special reward that you can claim once the full game is launched. This beta test will be available on all major systems, but a select group will have access to it before anyone else. Let’s dive into how to join this beta release, when it starts, what it contains, and what rewards you get for participating. As with the best beta releases, you will be able to transfer your progress to the main game.
To join the open beta version of Monster Hunter Wilds, you simply need to be old enough to play the game based on the ratings in your country and have a PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, or a PC capable of running the game on Steam. Once you meet these criteria, you can visit this website to find a link for each store interface where you can download the beta version once pre-loading begins.
The official start of the beta release on all platforms is at 8 PM Pacific Time on October 31st and will end at 7 PM Pacific Time on November 3rd. However, anyone with a PS Plus subscription can get early access to the beta release starting at 8 PM Pacific Time on October 28th.
Once all platforms have access to the beta release, cross-play will be enabled so you can play with friends on all consoles. The beta version will include character creation, a story experience for the opening hours of the game, and the Doshaguma Hunt.
You can earn two rewards for the full Monster Hunter Wilds game by playing in the beta version. These include a mysterious small monster pendant and an item pack containing a variety of consumables.
