Late last week, we detailed three upcoming Xbox betas including one for Monster Hunter Wilds, with another Capcom beta period going ahead this weekend. However, since then the gaming world has experienced a massive outage over on the PlayStation Network - which has caused the Monster Hunter dev to extend its test.
Announced earlier today, Japanese game maker Capcom has revealed that the team's upcoming Monster Hunter Wilds beta period will now be extended by 24 hours. This extension is applicable to all platforms - despite last weekend's network outage only affecting PlayStation users.
This is a nice bonus for Xbox players, who will now be able to enjoy Monster Hunter Wilds in beta form until late on Monday, Feb. 17th in the US - and the early hours of Feb. 18th here in the UK. This second test will contain the same content as last weekend's Monster Hunter Wilds beta.
Once this next Capcom beta tests wraps up, players won't have long to wait for the full release. Monster Hunter Wilds hits Xbox Series X|S, alongside PS5 and PC, on February 28th, 2025.
