With the release of *Monster Hunter Wilds* just around the corner on February 28, now's your final chance to secure those enticing pre-order bonuses. But is it worth the rush? Let's delve into the pre-order bonuses and the various editions available for *Monster Hunter Wilds* to help you make an informed decision.

Which Platforms Is Monster Hunter Wilds Available On?

*Monster Hunter Wilds*, the latest installment in Capcom's beloved beast-slaying series, is set to launch on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. Unfortunately, it won't be available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4 due to their hardware limitations. There's speculation about a potential release on the Nintendo Switch 2, but as of now, Nintendo has not made any announcements.

In this new adventure, players will explore a largely open world, tackling a variety of monsters, from the massive Uth Duna to the iconic dragon-like Rathalos. Rathalos is a familiar foe, while Uth Duna presents an exciting new challenge.

Every Pre-Order Bonus For Monster Hunter Wilds

If you pre-order *Monster Hunter Wilds* before the February 28 deadline, you'll receive the following bonuses:

• Hunter Layered Armor Set: Guild Knight
• Talisman: Hope Charm

While Capcom hasn't detailed the exact effects of the Hope Charm, it's expected to offer a beneficial boost to your character, similar to previous games. Though it won't make you a game-breaking powerhouse, it could provide a strategic edge in crucial moments.

Every Edition of Monster Hunter Wilds

Pre-ordering ensures you don't miss out on the Guild Knight armor and the Hope Charm. However, selecting the right edition can be a bit trickier, especially if you're tempted by the prospect of an official *Monster Hunter* bike.

While these editions are available in the West, Capcom is also releasing two physical PS5-exclusive Collector’s Editions, which are currently only confirmed for Japan:

Collector’s Edition ($68)

• Fluffy Seikret plush
• Weapon bag
• Steelbook

This edition does not include the game itself, and if you're outside Japan, you'll need to factor in shipping costs, which can add around $30, making it nearly $100. Is the adorable Seikret plush worth it? That's for you to decide.

Ultra Collector’s Edition ($1,140)

• *Monster Hunter Wilds* base game
• Pre-order content
• Fluffy Seikret plush
• Weapon bag
• Steelbook
• *Monster Hunter Wilds* Secret Folding Bicycle

This edition includes a Dahon K9X folding bike, shipped separately in April 2025. While the bike can be purchased separately for around $870 in Japan, this edition offers a unique package. However, Capcom’s Japan store doesn’t ship internationally, so you’ll need to find a way to get it shipped to you.

What Have the Early Reactions to Monster Hunter Wilds Been Like?

While full reviews are not yet available, the *Monster Hunter Wilds* beta and various previews have generated positive buzz. Here are some highlights from the previews:

• PCGamesN: "So far, Monster Hunter Wilds is more evolution than revolution – but given that World was such a good game, that’s absolutely the correct move."
• Eurogamer: "Monster Hunter Wilds cuts out the clunk – and plays like the most streamlined, beginner-friendly entry yet."
