Expansion for Monster Hunter Wilds releasing in 2027
IGN's hands-on preview of Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance at Tokyo Game Show 2026 reveals an expansion that could finally deliver the challenging endgame the base game lacked. New Boost Drivers, Master Rank hunts, and brutal monsters like Alpha Arakata and Teostra suggest Capcom is targeting the Iceborne-level difficulty veterans have been waiting for.
Monster Hunter Wilds is officially coming to Nintendo Switch 2 at the start of the year, with a major Ascendance expansion set for 2027 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. The expansion introduces the Skybound Eyrie region, Master Rank quests, and the Boost Bracer mechanic. Capcom also announced the end of free content updates by the end of 2025.
