Monster Hunter Wilds’ director wants to let players discover its best tricks

Monster Hunter Wilds is almost here, and while its position as the successor to Capcom’s best-selling game ever suggests many players will be returning ones, there are sure to be lots of newcomers to the series, or people who bounced off previous entries. The beastie-battling RPGs have always been notorious for their layers upon layers of systems, and that’s something the studio has worked to better explain for its newest entry. When I sat down with game director Yuya Tokuda and producer Ryozo Tsujimoto recently, however, they told me they’d like to leave at least some techniques, tricks, and secrets for players to discover themselves.
