Take to the Skies in the New Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance Expansion Launching Next Year
Capcom has officially pulled back the curtain on Ascendance, the highly anticipated major expansion for Monster Hunter Wilds. Following the base game’s successful launch last February, this upcoming content update is set to transport players to a breathtaking new frontier high above the clouds, featuring a sprawling landscape of floating islands.
The developers have described Ascendance as a “massive expansion,” mirroring the scale of legendary predecessors like Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. Hunters can prepare to test their mettle against an entirely new roster of formidable wyverns and deadly apex predators that call this high-altitude ecosystem home.

While an exact release date remains under wraps, Capcom has confirmed that the expansion is slated to arrive sometime next year across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
