Niantic and Capcom have unveiled an exciting collaboration event between the augmented reality mobile game, Monster Hunter Now, and the eagerly awaited mainline release, Monster Hunter Wilds. Scheduled to run from February 3, 2025, at 9 am to March 31, 2025, at 11:59 pm (local time), this event offers players a chance to snag exclusive Monster Hunter Wilds-themed goodies before the game's official launch.
In addition to the collaboration event, Capcom has announced a second open beta test for Monster Hunter Wilds, set for February 2025. This test will include content from the first beta, a new monster hunt, and the ability to carry over characters, providing fans with an early taste of the game. In the meantime, players can dive into Monster Hunter Now, where real-world locations are utilized to engage with both small and large monsters.
During the event, players can participate in limited-time Monster Hunter Wilds Collab Event Quests in Monster Hunter Now. Completing these quests will reward players with a gift code that can be redeemed for exclusive in-game items in Monster Hunter Wilds, such as Mega Potions, Energy Drinks, Dust of Life, and more. These gift codes can be found under the hunter menu and generated for the selected platform, making it an excellent incentive to engage with Monster Hunter Now ahead of Wilds' release.

This season introduces a new habitat, additional monsters, and a new weapon type, the Switch Axe. Players can earn a variety of supply items just by logging in during the collaboration event, including Weapon Refining Parts and Armor Refining Parts. Additionally, limited-time packs featuring Special Carving Knives and Hunting Tickets will be available in the in-game shop and web store.
Set to launch in 2025, Monster Hunter Wilds is among the most anticipated games of the year, alongside titles like Avowed, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Nintendo’s Pokemon Legends: Z-A, and the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6. As a successor to Monster Hunter: World from 2018, Wilds promises several open-world biomes, 14 weapon types, and four-player co-op multiplayer. A unique feature of Wilds is the Seikret mount, which allows players to carry two weapons during hunts, enhancing the gameplay experience.
