The next weapon for Monster Hunter Wilds has been revealed. With the hammer, you can deal significant damage.
2025 is when it will happen: the latest installment of the popular action RPG series, Monster Hunter Wilds, will be released. You will be able to embark on monster hunts on Steam, the PS5, and on the Xbox Series X|S.
Since some monsters prove to be really tough enemies, having the right equipment is crucial in Monster Hunter. Currently, the developer Capcom is showcasing more and more weapons that you can use in Monster Hunter Wilds.
The latest tool: the hammer, which you can see here in the trailer:
What can the hammer do? The hammer can be used as a blunt weapon, and you can charge up its swings. This allows you to deliver powerful blows and stagger your opponents.
With multiple hits to the head, it will be possible to temporarily stun enemy monsters. Then, you can rain down further attacks on them.
In Focus Mode, you can also target the weaknesses of monsters. This way, you can quickly dispatch them.
How is the hammer being received? In the initial reactions on YouTube, the new weapon is being received quite well. Specifically, the design of the hammer, which can be seen in the video, is praised. It seems to feature a gigantic brain, which looks quite wild.
However, the impact of the hammer is also commended, and how it affects the monsters, which noticeably tremble when struck hard. The sound of the hammer appeals to several players as well, while many praise the design of the other weapons and equipment shown. Want more insight?
