Capcom has extended the Monster Hunter Wilds beta following a 24-hour PlayStation Network outage that disrupted the previous test. The PSN outage, which began around 3 PM PT on Friday, February 7th, lasted approximately 24 hours. Sony attributed the disruption to an “operational issue,” compensating PlayStation Plus subscribers with an additional five days of service.
This outage impacted online gameplay, including the highly anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds beta, scheduled from Thursday, February 6th to Sunday, February 9th. In response, Capcom announced a 24-hour extension to the next beta session. The new dates are:
Thursday, February 13th, 7 PM PT / Friday, February 14th, 3 AM GMT – Monday, February 17th, 6:59 PM PT / Tuesday, February 18th, 2:59 AM GMT
Capcom confirmed that participation bonuses, also available in the full game, remain accessible during this extended period.
Despite last week's interruption, beta players experienced the game's challenges, including facing the formidable new monster, Arkveld.
Monster Hunter Wilds officially launches on February 28th, 2025, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. For more in-depth information, including our IGN First coverage and final preview, [ttpp] please refer to our dedicated Monster Hunter Wilds page.
