One of the first questions regarding Monster Hunter Wilds concerns the release date. So far, only the year 2025 is known. The shareholder wants to know why the game isn’t being released in December 2024, as that would yield more profit.
Capcom wants to announce a specific date only when the preparations are complete.
However, they still believe they will be able to meet the goal for the fiscal year.
Another question related to the platforms. The game was announced for PS5, Xbox Series, and PC. The shareholder asks why no portable console like the Switch is mentioned.

Another topic was mods and cheats for the game, as for the first time there will also be crossplay between consoles and PC. Capcom dismissed this topic.
