Capcom emphasized that this update aims to refine the Monster Hunter Wilds experience while introducing new challenges for seasoned hunters. The addition of the Grand Repository responds to community feedback about the lack of a dedicated social hub at launch.

While performance improvements remain a priority, this patch focuses primarily on content and stability, with further optimizations planned for future updates. Players are encouraged to restart the game after installing Ver. 1.010.00.00 to ensure all fixes apply correctly.

Monster Hunter Wilds is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, with Capcom promising ongoing support for months—if not years—to come. Stay tuned for more updates as the hunt evolves!
