Monster Hunter Wilds is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 , it has just been revealed during the Nintendo Direct.

The short version

  • The game, with all its free DLC updates (including new monsters), will be included in this console port.
  • Nintendo fans will be able to pick it up starting the 5th December.
  • This version of the game is also coming with local co-op support, much like the older games in the series did, so you can venture out to your friends' house in real life and get a hunting party going.

What happened

In addition, the Nintendo Direct trailer reminded viewers that Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascension is on the way . This, the first major expansion to Wilds, is bringing a new hunting region, new story quests, and of course new monsters.

Why it matters
