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

Author : Penelope Apr 23,2025

Monster Hunter Wilds continues to break records, having now surpassed the 10 million sales mark. This achievement sets a new first-month sales record for Capcom, outpacing any other game in the company's history. Remarkably, Wilds sold 8 million copies within just three days of its release, making it the fastest-selling game Capcom has ever produced.

In a statement to the press, Capcom attributed the phenomenal success of Monster Hunter Wilds to several key factors. The introduction of crossplay, a first for the series, along with a simultaneous launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, has significantly broadened the game's appeal. This approach contrasts with Monster Hunter World, which saw a delayed PC release. Capcom also highlighted the new Focus Mode mechanic and the seamless transition between settlements and ecosystems, which enhance the immersive experience. The combination of these new features with the core Monster Hunter gameplay has generated substantial excitement, leading to the record-breaking sales.

Play"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," Capcom explained.

"Additionally, the introduction of the new Focus Mode mechanic and the implementation of seamless movement between settlements and ecosystems have provided an even more immersive gaming experience, while the fusion of numerous new elements with Monster Hunter’s appeal has generated significant excitement, all of which led to the company first-month sales record of over 10 million units sold."

Looking ahead, Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 1 is set to launch on April 4, introducing a fan-favorite monster and the Grand Hub, a new in-game settlement for player interaction. Title Update 2, teased to include Lagiacrus, is scheduled for the summer.

The Monster Hunter series made a significant impact in the West with the 2018 release of Monster Hunter World, which remains Capcom's best-selling game with 21.3 million units sold. Given the current trajectory, it's highly likely that Monster Hunter Wilds will eventually surpass this figure.
