- The more I think about it the more I feel that Monster Hunter Rise will have the best maps in the series to date! Let me tell you why I feel this way and share some ideas of what kind of maps I think we'll be getting in Monster Hunter Wilds.
00:00-01:30 Opening and intro
01:30-06:10 Wilds maps are basically 4 maps in one!
06:10-08:35 Of course a Volcano right?
08:35-11:59 Lagiacrus is coming back?!
11:59-13:07 Tell me your map ideas!

I honestly want to see a tiga swamp be more fleshed out than the Citadel in Sunbreak
Oh yea that would be something I feel like it’s been a while since we’ve had a proper swamp!
Me doing a no cart playthrough: "Yaaaaay"
Random Lightning Strike: "Bwahahahaha"
lol you make the rules, so you can have a clause that deaths cause by map hazards don’t count.
11:20 an easy way to kick the player out of those places. a short 5 second-ish cutscene. thundering water comes rushing into where ever they at, fade out, fade in, and the player is flushed out the nearest entrance. resume gameplay
Or have the Seikret come and whisk them away.
Thats REALLY smart actually! Though I could see some people complaining "Why wont they let us swim T.T"
I like this one too!
One idea that I’ve had since Iceborne released was a map that is a mixture of both tundra and volcanic. Something along the lines of Mt. Fuji in Japan. I imagine it having two extremes where either the lava is flowing and there are more volcanic monsters and another with a blizzard that has more tundra monsters.
Ohhhh Alatreon but map! Fire and Ice would lead to some interesting monster combos too. I’d imagine Glacial Agnaktor and Agnaktor in the same map if it’s a volcanic snowy place. Dude yes
Sounds dope
i want to see a very dense atmospheric swamp locale, ive always love swamp areas back in freedom unite. snow>forest>swamp>sand>volcanic
It’s been so long since we’ve had a decent swamp unless you count flooded forest. I feel you though I like the order of your list!
I feel like the volcano map wouldn't have any active lava *at all* during the plentiful season. There would be clear, pure water, and solid rock. There would also be at least one area in which there is a lot of splintered volcanic glass and it's near impossible to sneak. However, you could use some of the glass as slinger ammo. There is also a geyser that erupts at rather precise intervals.
During the harsh season, not only will lava be covering the map, but there will also be fumaroles that can be used as traps if you can lead a monster into one as it erupts. Another trap is a large mudpot, which a monster can fall into. This will trap it for several moments, giving you a large opportunity to attack. Some water sources will boil away, making new areas accessible.
OHHHH you cooked with this one! Your idea is MUCH better than mine. Capcom hire this person! It would end up like Lava Caverns 2.0!
It appears as if Wilds will be like the Guiding Lands; one large map with at least four different biomes that one can transition between seamlessly.
The prototype for this came from my favorite Monster Hunter game; Monster Hunter Tri and Monster Hunter 3U which featured Moga Island aka The Deserted Island.
That sounds amazing I do remember how Moga seamlessly went to D. island that was my first game in the series!
They gotta have a map that's a forest that become a very heavy rainstorm and winds then a flooded forest with raging rivers
That would be dope. Like a Flooded Forest redo!
I had the same idea with the water levels one for a map. I would call it a mangrove forest at the beachfront, complete with estuary and underwater rock cave systems like you said. I could very well see swimming as only traversal, not as a battle mechanic. Like our birdo mount can swim us across things.
Also for a mountain terrain map to go from tundra with beautiful wildflowers to a snowstorm, like how the weather in Alaska can be in springtime lol
Ah yea that’s a good point we technically did swim in World while we were in the ancient forest. Hell yea I’m liking that mountainous snowy map ideas too.
My first thought with the new weather mechanic was a Tundra. 2nd was a volcano.
Hell yea I could see a severe white out blizzard coming in to make things difficult during a hunt. Glad we’re on the same page with the volcano!
@@Jaycan Yeah, it would also be a nice callback to 4.
As a 2nd Gen coming from Monster Hunter Freedom 2 on PsP, I really love Frost maps... So I'm thinking regular= Chilly, snow up to shins ... Natural movement speed ... But then! When it's harsh = A sudden Snowstorm ... Then depend on elevation, you get an Avalanche that catches you and sends you to a new part of the cave ... Colder, chilling your body so it reduces stamina ... And then Plentiful= the snow melts, icicles start falling, Sun rises and then even waterfalls happen around you. I hope we have a peak of a mountain to stand on looking at the landscape
That sounds amazing. Maybe like 3rd Gen’s Misty Peaks but with snow that varies in depth and intensity as you play. Man that sounds incredible.
Im scared them being 2x the size of world will make it obnoxious getting to the monsters I also hope they get more creative then just desert or forest like coral highlands or the citadel
Yea, but with the new camp system you can drop a camp wherever and fast travel to them, so I don’t think it will be too bad in the end if you set your camps up well.
Honestly, Dragon's Dogma 2 was the only game that let me rest MHW for a while. And, I'm completely certain it's gonna go right back to MH when Wilds comes out. I can't wait.
Man I need to get back to Dragon’s Dogma 2. I’ve used this little outage at work due to the hurricane to make a lot of progress in Octopath Traveler 2. So many games but so little time to play them all. The amount of games I have on my self still in plastic keeps growing.
@@Jaycan haha. I know what that's like. To spend all day slaving at work, just to get in late, just to play for, thinking a couple hours, only to see it's 4 a.m. the next morning. That's my life right now. It's 1 a.m. as I wrote this, and just came off my PS5. 😭
Iunno man. After the Ancient Forest and Rotten Vale, I don't think Tokuda is gonna cook on open world like that. Makes me feel like with all the open space, monsters will still have their designated areas they like stayin' in like open desert, near oasis, near cave etc etc so the size won't make that impact like it should. As for the seasons, I hope it acts like MHDos or Rise expeditions where you can see the seasons or choose the time of day
Ah I feel ya I mean the new monster (Rey Dau?) tends to show up during the lightning storms, but I wonder if it’s limited to certain areas too. Oh yea the summer game fest previews mentioned that the weather effects happen pretty often similar to how night and day change on the Rise/Sunbreak maps.
@@Jaycan Exactly. Something like Rey Dau would be cool to see pop up at any location during the storm and not "Area 6/8/9 during said sandstorm." That dynamic weather gotta go crazy!
developer interviews apparently state that these wont be INDIVIDUAL maps, but rather smaller parts of the huge connected world. So like an open world game, but you'll need to slowly unlock each part of the map
Oooo got a link for that I'd love to read over it and see!
@@Jaycan i have a screenshot! sadly dont have a link to the page
Aw man, ok what publication was it maybe I can look it up and find it?
@@Jaycan it seems to be a japanese intervierw with Fujioka and Tokuda. Tokuda is asked "This is the first seamless map (talking about the desert), but will the field continue to expand, or will it be designed with one base per area?" The exact words Tokuda replies with are: "The image is of a vast, seamless map with more areas like forests and deserts. The scale of the map will expand as the story progresses".
Could be a rough translation though, so I dont know. Have the screenshot but havent been able to track down the name of the publication, sadly.
@@Jaycan And in another publication, which I again sadly havent been able to track, Tokuda is asked if the fields are connected seamlessly, and he answers that the number of fields increase through the story, but once unlocked you can move between them seamlessly. With the expection of areas that "are too far away", which seemingly require loading zones. They specifically say this is NOT an open world, because you cant go to any area from the beginning.
the idea is good !!. and since levianthans are back in the big game (since there was no levianthans in world) its more possible now !!
Exactly my thoughts. I’m hype!
@@Jaycan i know right. oh there is one more thing. i try to dm you on twitter. but somehow it saying i have to get x premium..
One of the coolest parts about the maps is that they said each of them will have 2 large monsters that form herds, at a minimum. Doshaguma and balahara may be the only herd monsters on that map, maybe not but this implies that other maps will have maybe 3 or 4 monsters that use this mechanic. I can't wait to see what other herd monsters we get.
We also have the 3 states of the maps; abundance, scarcity and hazards. I can't wait to see how that is used on other biomes. Maybe they fuse a forest/jungle and a volcano, you would have lush greens, to an eruption where everything is on fire, maybe lava is poring from the volcano in sections, then the scarcity is a dark ash covered landscape, where the lava has cooled off. A snow map will probably have blizzards. Maybe the scarcity is from everything being buried in snow, like the sand in the map we have. I don't think we're getting like zones taht will be closed off, we may, but i'd imagine that at worst like the lava flow would close off a path and to get to that zone you just have to take a different one. They likely won't seal off whole zones with this.
Yeah, with this level of detail, i'd be fine with like 4 maps. I do hope we get a swamp though, the series has a bad habit of adding a swamp and the monsters in it don't really fit. Now we have swampy monsters like almodron. They've had swamps in 1st, 2nd, and 4th gen but there weren't monsters that felt like they were particularly adapted for them. It's their one blind spot when it comes to map ecology. The only monster that gets an explanation really is basarios, the swamp in 1st gen is close to the volcano so they stay there until they are old enough to take the heat and venture to the volcano shortly before becoming gravios. Really though, that's not a swamp thing in particular but just it being any map that's worm but not too close to the volcano so it could be almost anything. It didn't have to be a swamp. I'd be satisfied if we got a swamp in the next portable game, with monsters taht fit it better, doesn't have to be Wilds. Just something odd that i've noticed.
Yea man it really has been a long time since we’ve gotten a swamp. Off thr top of my head Almudron, Jyratodus, gobul make sense for the swamps, but there could and should be better monsters that would suit such a locale.
@@Jaycan Gobul not quite, since he has to be underwater to be a fight. He suits the flooded forest by a map like the other 3 swamps suit the other 2.
While basing ourselves on the frst gens swamps, we could have Espinas & Astalos for the highlands as they would love an insect rich environment. Almudron would chill in his swampy mud manor as Duramboros roams around looking for trees to dig up.
Viper Tobi and Giginox lurk in the shadowy caves when water is low, but we can encounter a Jyuratodus when the muddy water reaches knee high.
Roaming around the whole map, you can have a invasive herd of Congalalas with an emerald looking one as the boss and Congas everywhere, Najarala lookin to catch sometin' lacking. There's also the possibility of a new, medium sized omnivorous fang wyvern working like a pack of wolves.
As for seasonal changes, Lagiacrus could come up and stir trouble with is blue ass shrouded in the heavy rain, thunderind aubout the wetlands. Or a Gravios descending from a nearby volcano to cool down when the marsh dries up.
But in between, as the heavy rain dies down, the apex of the zone, Barlagual (a leviathan from frontier) comes play the boogeymon. He uses wager attacks, paralysing fangs and a poisonous tongue to harass small monsters and drain them of their blood to reinforce his powers (with, we have a second monster who can naturally inflict bloodblight).
@@willglorian Viper tobi and gigginox are only in ice maps though so it's not cold enough.
That's assuming there is a neerby volcano again.
That's one of the Frontier monsters i actually like.
As much as that's a nice list, i'd hope for them to come up with more monsters that are built for a the swamp in particular because there aren't a lot of them in the series. Mostly just ones that tolerate it.
@@jockpackage1770 You could argue that Viper could be in the swamp since its cold enough for cold drink to be necessary, but you're right about the need of swamp/mangrove specialist. Unfortunately, those we could count as swamps specialists atm just really need mud to thrive, as you said.
We could also argue that Duramboros is a true inhabitant of the swamp as his concept follows the water buffalo. He burries himself in the muddy water to rest, forage the surroundings for grass and dead trees. He tolarates other maps because there's water and food, but the swamp is his true home.
I would love a monster using the concept of Estrelian (from Online, and since his design belong to tencent, we can't have him, but his squeleton is kushala's without the wings). He would mainly use paralysis since he mainly forages for mushrooms, insects and fish. His tail, claws and horns would be his main weapons for fighting and he doesn't shy away form using them. His skin would be adapted to the different types of marshes, but his scales are pretty resistant. (I would love it but that's going ahead of myself)
i feel the action will be more faster than world i still cant get into how the action is slow pace in world
I don’t think it’ll be much faster, but definitely slower than Rise for sure.
Where did you get the thor magala real name? I thought that because it was a private reveal, its name wouldn't be shown to the public until gamescom. Expect capcom to be knocking at your door.
Italians got lucky and got the name early, I don't know what article it's in though
x.com/Phemeto/status/1808221467634815261 Right here!
Dude I cannot wait for this video game. I wanna be in this world again more than I want anything.
Oh man so many people are in the same camp. I bet there are people going through a rough time and are choosing to live so they can experience this game.
For a volcano map, it would be ideal to have the normal season with an lot of caves, hot but manageable; a eruption season with the underground being partially obstructed and the ground burning with flowing lava, then the plenty would be a season with a were a lot of rain fell and cooled the map, chasing the fire monsters to let other island dwellers come (the crabs, snakes, etc) with a lot of ore being created.
In a map with water, we follow your idea of a tide, but I would love it to be some kind of inland marsh where water rises from the ground with the harsh rain and its difficult to move (put in some poisonous puddles here and there). There are a lot of caves becoming underground lakes. Or a coastal mangrove (since there's no underwater combat, we keep it for the next game)
For the forest, I love the concept of taiga where the snowy mountains are mixed with the 'forest & hills'. we have the naked forest (the plenty) with a lot of accessible caves, a slightly snowy and misty forest with certain caves and hills accessible and a heavily snowy zone where the sharp edged hills become small mountains (of course, exit Barioth & Narga to welcome the migratory Blangongaw, the Congalala and Gammoth).
Hell yea all of these maps sound great and I’m happy to hear you resonated with my ideas. Taiga sounds amazing as an ice map maybe a blizzard for the harsh segment too. Whew that would be nuts to battle a monster during a white out blizzard.
That rain forest idea is the exact same thing I suggested on another content creator's youtube video.
Oh word? I suppose great minds think alike! I don't spend as much time watching Monster Hunter videos as I'd like to. Which video was it?
My only hope is gunlance, keeping the dash and mobility from rise, I play rise before world and Damm world feel heavy and slow compare to rise, the maps on world are a bit......... jank? Tedious? Don't know how to describe, but there's something that make it feel like a shore to move around (maybe the amount of corners and small monster around getting on the way)
It’s the lack of wirebugs. Without worebugs and the go anywhere climb anything design the maps feel different. The game itself is also straight up slower as well.
Currently my favourite maps are the forest & hills, all of second gens maps especially the snowy mountains and swamp, I'm a Freedom unite player I have nastagla, 3rd gen had some bangers aswell like Moga woods, and world has the best maps ever objectivey especially the hoarfrost reach and the coral highlands and rotten vale together are my favourite map period, so is wilds can surpass that I'd be over the moon
For me my ideal collection of maps for a game would be,
1. A coastal forest map, like if Moga island and forest and hills had a baby
2. a mangrove map like the tidal island from fronter combined with the flooded for
3. A Savana map with some desert areas, like what the sandy plains where trying to be in tri and pretty much what we are getting in wilds
4. A toxic swamp map like the gen 1/2 swamp maps with proper mist
5. A volcano map that has ash feilds like what cretaceous North America is often depicted as, combined with 3rd gen volcano
6. A snow map built for gammoth so a proper open tundra with frozen lakes, caves, and a mountain
7. Would be the tower or a otherwise ruins of a the civilisation
This would be a absolute dream set of maps for me especially with seasons and underwater combat
@@stormerjc9493 Oh I love your idea for the frist map. I see a taïga forest, a giant lake which freezes in the cold season, a northern tundra where Gammoth an Popos graze while a Tigrex lurks around.
The lake has its source up a mountain just line freedom unite's. We can climb vine covered cliffs in the warm season' but not in the cold'. We can always access the summit via caves and tunnels' but beware the Giginox nesting and the Goss Harag passing through.
We have Ukanlos as the apex' appearing during hail or Anorupatisu (from Frontier) when everthing is frozen
@@willglorian it's great to see someone sharing my vision, I'd personally also love to have Zamtrios lurking in the frozen lakes
@@stormerjc9493 I totally forgot Zamtrios, but he's a really good monster. He would be lurking in the tundra bogs and underground lake to stay moist, passively hunting like a croc, but as soons as the lakes freeze, he goes back to his usual landshark self
@@willglorian snow maps I always have a soft spot for and the snow map I'm describing I think would be the snow map the best all snow maps, so far the snowy mountains and hoarfrost reach have been the best but we just need it bigger for gammoth and ukanlos
@@stormerjc9493 Now that we have good controls over the camera and the size of the monsters don't put a strain of it as much, we can hope for monsters of behemoth size (not the FF behemoth). Gammoth, Duramboros, the black and white gods, Yama tsukami.
But you're right, thanks to freedom unite I think, the snow map possesses a charm that few other biomes possess, and they have to put the items to give the maps the flowers they deserve.
Taking the snowy mountains (& Hoarfrost reach) as a basis, we coud have the zone 1 & 2 being a large plain changing into a hill, then a mountain side path for whooly monsters to go up. The forest where the camp is located becomes a hilly forest and goes up & down to join the mountain side path on the other side of the map. The base camp is then placed in the caves, linking them with the forest and the lakeside plain.
The large lake/River on the side become an availabe zone and freezes in the frost season. A huge iceberg lies at the center with cracked ice floe around like in the Hoarfrost. you can lure land monsters on the lake and trap them into the ice. the non ice monsters get iceblight and go to eat or rest as fast as possible.
As the heart of the biome, the mountain is around the center of the map, the two path joining at the backside to go to the top, the cave system becomes more intricate (like the Hoarfrost Reach) and there's a hidden path underneath the zone to allow Ukanlos, Zamtrios and the likes to go upstream of the underground river until the glacier where the white god takes its rest.
You NEED the hot drink to survive the mountaintops and the freezing season, but the hot pepper to craft them grows in the forest below. Or you can put the ice mantle to get some time to take shelter from the incoming blizzard.
We need a giant Popo herd with a huge Gammoth matriarch and some teen Gammoth. We need a pair of Blangongas bossing around a pack of Blangos as long as their whiskers and fangs are intact. We need T
The changing maps mechanic... 4U references... could it be that they plan to bring back a fully realized Volcanic Hollow!?
Could bring back both! It could be Sunken at times and then Volcanic at times with the whole changing system thing!
The game is in an uncharted area so I doubt we'll see old maps in this one
@@amaurygatelier1157 you’re right. Maybe for the G-rank expansion? I think it could be amazing to revisit the entirety of 4U’s area.
@@Jaycan Imagine actually exploring Dundorma with these graphics
I had a really similar idea to your second map
a pretty map based on the idea of a shore, the deeper you go in the forest behind the beach the more foresty and jungley it is with 1/4th of the map being basically a lush pretty forest
however tides change and the low tide is so extreme you can see the coral above the water now, basically a coral highlands area on low tides, with a possible cave with a lot of pearls, corals and crystals it will also be 1/4th of the map
when the tide rises even your already fighting there you get a animation kind of like the one we had on world when you fell down in the hoarfrost reach (the area where the ice falls and if you don't escape you go to viper tobi's area) and you take some damage, maybe 40% of your current health (so it won't ever faint you but will reduce your health for overstaying in that area)
and as you said when the tide is high water comes in and turns the forest into a swamp-like map, it goes from clean and pretty to dirty (but still pretty)
monsters that can use thunder will have an AOE on where their attacks, ice blight effect is strengthened since your covered in water and you walk slightly slower in the watery areas
Ohhhhh I like that. its basically a map thats on a singular hill or slope right?
@@Jaycansomething like that yeah
I want a cavernous underground anthill like map, that floods (not swimming but walking/wading through knee high water) as the "weather" or "storm" effect. And like water slides effects and stuff.
Edit: So I posted this before you got to your 2nd map.
#ReturnOfPlesioth
#JustKidding
Great minds think alike! Hell yea Plesioth is returning to mess us up with that hip check lol
Probably? It will period lol.
Loving the confidence! I had that as the title originally, but idk it felt a lil clickbaity so I didn’t do it haha
