Generally, players can access Monster Hunter Wilds on their consoles (PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X and S) starting at 12am on Friday, February 28, local time. PC gamers will be able to join the hunt later in the day. However, if you're on Pacific Standard Time (PST), you're in for a treat; you can play on both console and PC starting from 9pm on Thursday, February 27.
It's important to note that if you've opted for a physical copy of Monster Hunter Wilds, you'll need to download a 15GB update before you can start playing, as per Capcom's instructions.

Monster Hunter Wilds is the next big title in Capcom's successful monster hunting video game series. IGN's review of Monster Hunter Wilds awarded it an impressive 8/10, stating: "Monster Hunter Wilds continues to smooth off the rougher corners of the series in smart ways, making for some extremely fun fights but also lacking any real challenge."
