Monster Hunter Wilds Beta Extended Due to PSN Issues

Author : Christian Feb 21,2025

Capcom extends the Monster Hunter Wilds beta test by 24 hours following a PlayStation Network outage. The outage, lasting approximately 24 hours starting Friday, February 7th, at 3 PM PT, impacted online gameplay, including the highly anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds beta. Sony attributed the disruption to an "operational issue" and compensated PlayStation Plus subscribers with five extra days of service.

The Monster Hunter Wilds beta, originally scheduled for February 6th-9th, was significantly curtailed. In response, Capcom announced a 24-hour extension to the next beta session. The revised schedule is:

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 players participating during this extended period will still receive the in-game participation bonuses offered in the full release. Despite the previous weekend's interruption, beta testers had the opportunity to engage with the challenging new monster, Arkveld.

Monster Hunter Wilds is set for official release on February 28th, 2025, across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
