How goes the hunting?
In-case you’ve missed it, since August 5th we’ve been sharing daily Monster Hunter Wilds weapon overview videos of all 14 weapons!
Last week we shared a look at the first seven, and now we’re back to complete the set with the remaining seven we’ve revealed since then!
If you’d like to get up to speed with what we’ve shown so far on the weapons you’ll be wielding in Wilds, you can check out the previous post HERE.
Before we look at these weapons, just a reminder that we’re at Gamescom 2024 this week in Cologne, Germany!
This includes a brand-new Monster Hunter Wilds trailer and more information being revealed at Opening Night Live, the world first playable hands-on for Wilds, as well as daily weekday streams from the Developer Team! We’ll share some more details on this after the weapon videos.
Now let’s unsheathe those weapons and get stuck in with the overviews!
Weapon Overviews: Part 2
Hammer
Charge up your hammer and go for the head! Close the gap and dodge attacks by using the slinger to never give monsters room to breathe.
Bonk with precision and stay centered on the monster's head with Focus Mode and stagger it with a Focus Strike!
Light Bowgun
Let loose with the highly mobile and versatile Light Bowgun. Successfully land hits to build Rapid Fire energy, then unleash multiple shots in quick succession!
Aim for the monster's weak points and launch an explosive mine for booming damage!
Sword & Shield
Wield the strengths of both Cut and Blunt damage with the Sword & Shield!
When combined with its mobility, swift attacks and the ability to guard, you'll be ready for whatever awaits you in the hunt!
Switch Axe
The versatile Switch Axe can morph between its powerful Axe Mode and the swift Sword Mode on the fly to fit the situation.
With Focus Mode, accurately target the enemy's weak point and discharge your weapon's phials!
Bow
Seek and destroy with the Bow! Hit a monster with a Tracer and your arrows will home in on the target.
With Focus Strike, blot out the sun by firing a volley of multiple arrows into the monster's weak points.
Lance
Become an unstoppable wall with the Lance!
Punish the monster with a variety of guard-related moves and counters. With Focus Mode, go on the offensive and charge forward by exploiting the monster's weak points.
Dual Blades
Deliver damage by a thousand cuts with the agile Dual Blades. Enter Demon Mode and maintain the Archdemon Mode state to deal rapid damage!
Use a Focus Strike attack to exploit a monster's weak point, becoming a spinning slicing cyclone of destruction.
With that, we’ve now covered all 14 weapon overview videos! Ok, now you’ve seen them all, what were the highlights for you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
