Wed Sep 25 08:16:49 UTC 2024: ## Cat Dad Rejoices as Monster Hunter Wilds Releases on Feb 28th, 2025

Gaming enthusiast and self-proclaimed “cat dad” Edwin is eagerly awaiting the release of Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest installment in the popular hunting franchise. Set to launch on February 28th, 2025, the game promises an immersive and visually stunning experience, as evidenced by a recently released trailer.

While excited about the prospect of hunting massive creatures in a vast and beautiful world, Edwin expressed concerns about the decision to have Palico companions speak human language. Known for their quirky cat puns, Edwin believes the change might dampen the unique charm of these furry allies.

However, the core gameplay of Monster Hunter Wilds, featuring the series’ signature “bonk a large lizard” mechanic, remains unchanged. Edwin, a self-described “mark for the monst,” is nonetheless enthusiastic about the game’s potential, particularly the implementation of the RE Engine, which is expected to deliver breathtaking graphics.

Despite his personal preferences, Edwin acknowledges the series’ inherent narrative flaws, including the portrayal of the hunted creatures as inherently hostile, a point he previously addressed in a separate article. However, he emphasizes that this is a minor concern compared to the overall joy of engaging in intense monster battles.

With Monster Hunter Wilds just around the corner, Edwin is ready to embark on this new hunting adventure, perhaps with his feline companion by his side, although she may not share his enthusiasm for the game’s virtual monsters.
