New Monster Hunter World Trailer Reveals New Area Called ‘Wildspire Waste’

The upcoming Monster Hunter World game is a highly anticipated return of the franchise to the PlayStation. Sure, it’s also going to the Xbox One, but that’s just details now. The point is that there are many fans of the original game who are going nuts over the upcoming title, which is why the new trailer that features a new land is so exciting.

Called the “Wildspire Waste,” this sprawling landscape is filled with the most interesting flora if the clip is anything to go by. Of course, what would a Monster Hunter area be without gigantic dinosaurs and beasts to hunt? As tradition dictates, players will find frightening behemoths in the area as well.

The topography of the area is quite varied, with surfaces ranging from deserts to marshes, to rivers, and so much more. For players who love diversity in the monsters they are hunting, there’s no shortage of variety here.

Gamers will be able to hunt down beasts that look like walking cliffside monuments, giant cat fishes, and even a dodo-looking aberration that makes use of rocks as a shield. Suffice it to say, hunters are going to need quite a bit of ingenuity and preparation to deal with these types of enemies.

At the end of the video, there also seems to be a behemoth rising out of a cooled lava surface, so there’s that to look forward to. Players can definitely expect to see some raid-level bosses in this game.

As for everything else about the game, as Gematsu notes, long-time Monster Hunter fans won’t likely find much about the mechanics to have changed. Tracking down quest-specific monsters will still require getting the bounty for that specific beast, hunting it down, skinning it for relevant parts, and then turning in the quest. Basically, it’s still Monster Hunter, true and true.
