Monster Hunter Wilds Becomes Capcom’s Fastest-Selling Game
Capcom’s latest game, Monster Hunter Wilds, has shattered the company’s records by selling 8 million copies in its first three days of release. This success surpasses previous games such as Monster Hunter World, which sold 5 million copies in 2018, and Monster Hunter Rise, which sold 4 million copies in 2021. With these figures, Monster Hunter Wilds is Capcom’s fastest-selling game to date.
Monster Hunter Wilds’ Massive Success
Monster Hunter Wilds received a huge response by reaching over 1 million concurrent players on Steam in its first weekend of release. This number made the game the seventh most-played game of all time on Steam, surpassing Cyberpunk 2077. The game’s success also pushed Steam’s total concurrent player count past 40 million for the first time.
Capcom’s Monster Hunter series has sold 108 million copies worldwide since its journey with the PlayStation 2 in 2004. Monster Hunter Wilds has taken this success of the series even further, attracting great attention from both critics and gamers.
According to reviews, Monster Hunter Wilds offers more entertaining battles by softening the corners of the series.

This success from Capcom shows that Monster Hunter Wilds has become not just a game, but also a global phenomenon. Players are eagerly awaiting new content and updates that will follow Capcom’s strong launch. Monster Hunter Wilds is currently playable on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC platforms.
