What to Expect in Update 1.041
This upcoming update promises to enrich the gaming experience with features including:
- A challenging 10-star Arch-tempered Arkveld quest.
- New collaborations with Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection, coinciding with its release on March 13, 2026.
- Event quests commemorating the one-year anniversary of Monster Hunter Wilds.
- A brand-new weapon inspired by the winning entry from Capcom’s recent design competition, along with credits for all finalists.
Looking Ahead: The Large-Scale Expansion
While specific details about the upcoming expansion are sparse, Tsujimoto has drawn parallels to previous expansions such as Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak. This comparison provides players with an insight into the potential scale and content of the expansion, which is tentatively scheduled to be revealed at major gaming events like Summer Game Fest or Gamescom.
Commercial Performance and Future Prospects
Looking ahead, Capcom is hopeful that this 2026 expansion will revitalize Monster Hunter Wilds and boost its commercial performance. Despite being one of the best-selling games of 2025, it has not met sales expectations when compared to its predecessor, Monster Hunter Rise. Producer Yuya Tokuda recently appealed to players who may have stepped away from the game, encouraging them to return in light of these upcoming developments.
