Monster Hunter Wilds: Capcom's Fastest-Selling Game Ever

Monster Hunter Wilds is Capcom's Fastest Selling Game, Moving 8 Million Copies in 3 Days

Monster Hunter Wilds (MH Wilds) has officially claimed the title of Capcom's fastest-selling game, surpassing 8 million units sold in just three days. Capcom proudly announced this milestone on their website, highlighting the game's remarkable achievement.

Prior to this announcement, SteamDB data revealed MH Wilds' impressive launch, peaking at over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam, despite receiving mixed reviews. Capcom credits this success to a comprehensive marketing strategy, including prominent appearances at global gaming events and a well-received open beta test that gave players a taste of the action.

Latest Update Tackles Game-Breaking Bugs

MH Wilds recently addressed several critical bugs that were hindering player progress. On March 4th, 2025, Monster Hunter's official support account, Monster Hunter Status, announced the release of hotfix patch Ver.1.000.04.00 across all platforms.

This patch resolved issues such as the inability to unlock "Grill a Meal" and "Ingredient Center" features (despite meeting requirements), inaccessibility of the Monster Field Guide, and a game-breaking bug preventing story progression in Chapter 5-2 ("A World Turned Upside Down"). Crucially, this update is mandatory for continued online play.

However, some issues remain unresolved, including a network error triggered by SOS flares after quest initiation and inconsistencies with Palico's blunt weapon damage (stun and exhaust). These multiplayer-related bugs are expected to be addressed in a future patch.
