Ahead of Monster Hunter Wild’s release date, you can get your first taste of the RPG game. The beta version includes a trial of the story and opening cutscenes, allowing you to learn the basic tutorial through a Chatakabra hunt and try out some of the weapons on offer. You can also take on the Doshaguma Hunt, one of Monster Hunter Wild’s many monsters, and explore the area in Sacred.
