Complete Guide — The Forbidden Lands

Monster Hunter Wilds

Every monster, every weapon, every locale.

Monster Hunter Wilds is a game about learning one fight at a time, and this guide is the checklist for that. All 32 large monsters with their species and the locales they live in, the 14 weapon types and what each one actually asks of you — patience, timing, or a system to master — and the five regions of the Forbidden Lands with the weather cycle that changes which monsters you meet there. Tick a monster off once you have hunted it and the tracker follows you across devices and save slots. There is no best weapon here and no single right order; what there is, is a loop — hunt something, wear it, hunt the thing that would have killed you before — and a list of everything the loop contains. Written from public sources and cross-checked against several, with each page saying what it was checked against and where the sources could not settle a detail.
