Core Announcement
Effective August 4, Capcom will implement a “permanent” price reduction for *Monster Hunter Wilds* and discontinue three editions from purchase: the *Monster Hunter Wilds Deluxe Edition*, the *Monster Hunter Wilds Premium Deluxe Edition*, and the *Monster Hunter Wilds Cosmetic DLC Pass*. Simultaneously, the publisher introduced three new bundles—*Monster Hunter Wilds Gold Edition*, *Monster Hunter Wilds Cosmetic DLC Collection*, and *Monster hunter Wilds Extras Cosmetic DLC Pack*—each aggregating content from the base game and multiple downloadable-content (DLC) packs.
New Bundle Details
- Gold Edition: Combines the full game with the Cosmetic DLC Collection.
- Cosmetic DLC Collection: Packages all Cosmetic DLC Packs 1-4, the Festival of Accord DLC Packs (Blossomdance, Flamefete, Dreamspell, Lumenhymn), the Deluxe Pack, and the Extras Cosmetic DLC Pack.
- Extras Cosmetic DLC Pack: Offers a selection of paid cosmetic DLC previously sold individually.
These bundles target players who already own the base title and wish to acquire the ten cosmetic DLC packs in a single purchase.
Official Communication
Capcom announced the changes via its official X account on July 13, confirming the August 4 rollout and outlining the contents of each new bundle. No further details about the magnitude of the permanent price cut have been released.
Context and Impact
The price adjustment follows the recent announcement that *Monster Hunter Wilds* will appear on the Nintendo Switch 2, a platform launch slated for June 2025 after the game’s original release on the standard Switch. By removing older editions and consolidating DLC into value bundles, Capcom aims to streamline the purchasing experience and provide a cost-effective option for existing and prospective players. Early reactions on social media have been positive, with many fans expressing enthusiasm for both the lower price point and the expanded DLC offerings.
What’s Next
Capcom has not disclosed additional future updates or pricing changes beyond the August 4 implementation. Players can anticipate the new bundles becoming available for purchase on that date.
