Monster Hunter World Update 15.23 Patch Notes:

• Updated Main Menu: The main change introduced in this update is the addition of a promotional ad for Monster Hunter Wilds in the game’s main menu.

This update primarily serves to remind players about Monster Hunter Wilds, the next upcoming installment in the Monster Hunter franchise. No gameplay, balance, or content-related adjustments were included in this patch, making it largely promotional.

Monster Hunter World was first released in 2018 and remains one of the most successful entries in the series, praised for its expansive environments, cooperative multiplayer features, and engaging combat system. While updates for the game have become less frequent, Capcom maintains basic support for the title, particularly around promotions for new releases within the franchise.

Monster Hunter Wilds is the next entry in the Monster Hunter franchise. It is set to be released for Windows PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and Series S on February 28, 2025. In the game, players take the role of a custom Hunter character who explores the “Forbidden Lands” to locate a missing expedition party, tracks, and fights monsters, and collects resources to craft new armor, weapons, and gear.
