In the wake of resolving a significant bug that stopped players in their tracks, Capcom, the developer behind Monster Hunter Wilds, has announced they’ve stumbled upon yet another hiccup halting story progression. The good news? They’re rolling out a fix next Monday, March 10, along with a slew of other improvements.
The latest snag involves the “Omens” story mission in Chapter 5-1. As detailed in a March 1 post on Steam, players are hitting a wall where they’re told to up their Hunting Rank to continue the quest, even though they’ve already met or surpassed the required level.
Some fans have been sharing potential workarounds, but your best bet may be to hang tight for the official patch. This approach ensures that the fix sticks and keeps the issue at bay.
Next week’s Monster Hunter Wilds update promises to tackle this and other challenges, as outlined in Capcom’s patch notes. While they haven’t nailed down an exact release time yet, if history is any guide, it might be wise to steer clear of online play during the update. That way, you won’t risk getting booted from a session midway. Happy hunting!
