Monster Hunter Wilds is in development for Nintendo Switch 2, Capcom confirms

Capcom has announced that Monster Hunter Wilds is in active development for Nintendo Switch 2.

This came after Summer Game Fest 2026 with Geoff Keighley, where Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance was revealed, which is a brand-new expansion coming in 2027.

The news that Monster Hunter Wilds is coming to the Nintendo platform was revealed in a ‘Developer Message’ video featuring Takuro Hiraoka and Ryozo Tsujimoto, the Director and Producer of Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance.

Capcom has been a huge third-party supporter of the Nintendo Switch 2 by bringing games to the console the same day as all platforms. That includes games like PRAGMATA and Resident Evil Requiem, just to name a couple.

No other information has been provided for the Switch 2 port of the game.
