Capcom is letting players 'try before they buy' Monster Hunter Wilds ' on Switch 2 , bringing the fairly generous 'Prologue demo' to the console before the game's full release on the platform on 4th December.
The short version
- The demo, which arrives on 19th October, lets you play the very beginning of the game up to the beginning of Chapter 1-3,"To the Forest".
- It's offline-only, so you don't get to experience the full joy of four-player hunts - but you do at least get to try out all 14 weapon types, and get full access to the character creator.
- Also, your save data will migrate from the demo to the full game, similarly to how the demo pathing works on PC and other consoles .
What happened
The Switch 2 release of the game represents another step on Capcom's journey towards making Wilds more popular than the esteemed Worlds - the publisher's end goal is "surpassing" the dizzying apex of Monster Hunter World's sales and popularity. To this end, it seems Capcom has all hands on deck with the upcoming expansion, Ascendance , something we're hoping to see more of in due course.
