"Monster Hunter Wilds Surpasses 10 Million Sales, Capcom Reveals Success Secrets"

Author : Simon May 13,2025

The phenomenal success of *Monster Hunter Wilds* continues unabated, with the game surpassing 10 million units sold, setting a new record for Capcom. This milestone marks the highest first-month sales in the company's history, eclipsing all previous records. Remarkably, *Wilds* achieved this feat after initially selling 8 million copies within just three days of its release.

In a statement to the press, Capcom highlighted several reasons behind the game's extraordinary performance, noting that it has even outshone the legendary *Monster Hunter World*. Key factors include the introduction of crossplay, a first for the series, and a simultaneous launch across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, unlike *World*, which saw a staggered release with a six-month delay for its PC version.

Capcom further elaborated, "The title provides an environment where a wider range of players can enjoy the game together with the introduction of crossplay, a first for the series, and a simultaneous release on PlayStation 5 system, Xbox Series X|S, and PC." They also credited the new Focus Mode mechanic and seamless transitions between settlements and ecosystems for enhancing the game's immersive experience. The combination of these new features with the core appeal of *Monster Hunter* has generated significant excitement, culminating in Capcom's first-month sales record of over 10 million units sold.

Looking ahead, *Monster Hunter Wilds* is set to expand further with Title Update 1, launching on April 4. This update will introduce a fan-favorite monster and the new Grand Hub, a settlement designed for player interaction. Title Update 2, teased to feature the iconic Lagiacrus, is slated for a summer release.
