Monster Hunter Wilds Release Date and Time

Monster Hunter Wilds is the latest addition to the Monster Hunter franchise and the successor to Monster Hunter World. It is a game with amazing graphics and powerful monsters and is set to feature a ton of new content for players to explore and sink hundreds of hours into. Up until now, the game has had two beta tests, giving players the chance to try out the game and what it has to offer prior to its official launch. However, those will no longer be needed as the game is releasing tomorrow, February 28, 2025!

Monster Hunter Wilds Release Date

Monster Hunter Wilds is finally set to be released tomorrow, February 28, 2025, one month shy of seven years after its predecessor, Monster Hunter World. Wilds is expected to breathe new life into the Monster Hunter genre, and with the influx of players that the franchise received with the introduction of World, we can surely expect that Wilds will definitely be in for a wild ride following its release tomorrow.

The game will feature both a global and a local release depending on your platform of choice. Players playing PC will get access to the game globally, meaning that the game will become available to everyone at once. However, those playing on consoles will receive the game at midnight in their local time zone, so if you’re planning to play on either PlayStation 5 or Xbox, you might just get ahead of the PC players and start enjoying the game earlier.

PC Release Time

Monster Hunter Wilds will have a global release through Steam, and it will become available to everyone at 5:00 AM UTC on February 28, 2025. This time will naturally be different depending on the time zone you are in, but using the sheet below, you should be able to figure out a zone that is close to the one you are currently in. Or you can also always go to Google and search up [UTC Time Now] to get a better understanding of how many hours are left before the official release.

Console Release Time

As we’ve already mentioned, those of you playing on a console will get the game at 12:00 AM midnight on February 28, 2025, local time. This means that those of you who are in New Zealand will get a really early start. The US, on the other hand, will be a bit behind. We wish everyone the best experience with Monster Hunter Wilds, and we hope you have a ton of fun regardless of which platform you’re planning on playing the game on!
