Complete Pre-Order Guide for Monster Hunter Wilds: Editions, Bonuses, and More

After much anticipation from fans of the franchise, Monster Hunter Wilds has a confirmed release date. As with most announcements from Capcom, this reveal comes with extensive details about the game, including the pre-order information. Although the official release is roughly five months away, pre-orders for Monster Hunter Wilds are available now across all platforms. Unlike its predecessor, Monster Hunter Rise, Wilds will offer three distinct editions, along with some platform-exclusive pre-order bonuses that fans should be aware of.

How to Pre-Order Monster Hunter Wilds on All Platforms?

Monster Hunter Wilds can be pre-ordered on all current-generation platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC (via Steam). While it is not mandatory to pre-order, especially if you have concerns about the game’s technical performance on PC (it uses the same engine as Dragon’s Dogma 2), you might want to consider it to obtain exclusive pre-order rewards like the Layered Armor.

If you’re interested in securing those pre-order bonuses, here’s how to pre-order Monster Hunter Wilds on all platforms:

PlayStation 5

• Access the PlayStation Store on your PS5.
• Find the game in the Pre-Orders section on the store’s homepage or look for it in the “Latest“games section.
• On the game’s store page, click “Add to Cart“and proceed to payment and checkout.
• Upon payment completion, the game will be added to your PlayStation library.

Xbox Series X|S

• Open the Store app on your Xbox Series X|S.
• Search for the game via the dashboard’s search bar or find it under the “Latest“section.
• Once on the store page, click “Pre-Order“and follow through with payment and checkout.

Pre-ordering usually permits you to pre-load the game as soon as it is available; however, pre-load dates are determined by the publisher. Typically, Capcom allows pre-loads about 48 hours prior to launch.
