The first update for Monster Hunter Wilds in 2026 is now available. Capcom continues to strongly support the game, even after nearly a year since its release. Last month, MH Wilds received a large update with a lot of new content, and Capcom is starting the new year by adding even more improvements.
A new update, version 1.040.03.00, is now available for Monster Hunter Wilds on PS5, Xbox, and PC. This is a relatively small update focused on fixing a number of bugs that players have reported. These fixes address issues with specific hunter characters, abilities, and enemies. While it won’t significantly alter gameplay, the patch should improve the experience for regular players by resolving these problems.
You can find the complete patch notes for today’s update to Monster Hunter Wilds from Capcom below.
Monster Hunter Wilds Update Ver. 1.040.03.00 Patch Notes
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where restarting the game could cause an equipped pendant and Seikret decorations registered in the Hunter Profile to reset to default.
- Fixed an issue where some visual effects of the Hunting Horn’s Echo Bubble displayed red regardless of effect.
- Fixed an issue in Barrel Bowling where points were sometimes not correctly awarded for targets hit by explosions.
- Fixed an issue where the fishing button guide incorrectly displayed a stick rotation input when using keyboard controls.
- Fixed other miscellaneous issues.
Support Hunters
- Adjusted Fabius’s guard position to be closer to the center of the area when Gogmazios’s special attack is successfully weakened, and prevented his guard from being delayed by incoming attacks.
- When successfully weakening Gogmazios’s special attack, Fabius will now send a signal and display an objective marker (guild icon). Additionally, new Fabius dialogue has been added for when failing to weaken the attack.
- Fixed an issue where Fabius could behave unnaturally when guarding after successfully weakening Gogmazios’s special attack.
- Added the effects of the skill Shock Absorber to all Support Hunters, preventing Fabius from reacting to player attacks while guarding against Gogmazios’s special attack.
Other
- Reduced the likelihood of being hit by Gogmazios’s attacks while moving toward elevated positions or towards Fabius after successfully weakening Gogmazios’s special attack.
- Even after failing to weaken Gogmazios’s special attack, attacks will no longer reach elevated areas. Objective markers (guild icons) have also been added for available elevated safe positions.
- Adjusted the camera behavior while charging a Compact Anti-Wyvern Gun (excluding when mounted on a Seikret).
