Monster Hunter Wilds shattered sales records, exceeding 8 million units sold within its first three days—a monumental achievement for Capcom, making it their fastest-selling game ever. Despite some initial bugs, the game's success is undeniable. Read on to learn more about this remarkable feat and the latest game updates.
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 incredible reception.
This achievement follows earlier reports from SteamDB, indicating over 1.3 million concurrent players on Steam alone, despite mixed initial reviews. Capcom credits this success to a comprehensive marketing strategy, including prominent appearances at global gaming events and a successful open beta that allowed players to experience the game firsthand.
MH Wilds recently released a crucial hot fix patch (Ver.1.000.04.00) addressing several game-breaking bugs across all platforms. Monster Hunter Status, the official support account, announced the patch on Twitter (X) on March 4, 2025.
This update resolved issues such as the inability to unlock "Grill a Meal" and "Ingredient Center" features, inaccessibility of the Monster Field Guide, and most importantly, a critical bug halting story progression in Chapter 5-2, "A World Turned Upside Down." Players are now required to update the game to continue online play.
While this patch significantly improved the experience, some bugs remain, including a network error triggered by SOS flares and issues with Palico's blunt weapon attacks. These multiplayer-related issues are expected to be addressed in future updates.
