New Monster Hunter Wilds Theory May Have Revealed The Origins Of Zoh Shia

Summary

• Monster Hunter Wilds reveals lore-rich narrative with final boss Zoh Shia.
• Zoh Shia may be an amalgamation of multiple monsters, with Fatalis DNA.
• Players uncover reveal through similarities in eyes of Final Boss with Fatalis.

Monster Hunter Wilds is one of the most lore-rich titles in the entire Monster Hunter series. While the title is perceived as being easier than its predecessors, the handler Alma makes things feel real, Wyvern Milk was added to explain certain situations, and we finally found out more about the Artian equipment and the series’ post-apocalyptic setting. Stuff like this, the game’s director says, is what keeps players coming back to the series.

One creature, that has required a lot of fan interpretation, though, is the Zoh Shia. The game’s final pre-credits boss has been hidden away for years, siphoning its power while it sleeps, only to attack when approached.

Despite its mysterious past, players believe they’ve uncovered the source of the creature over a span of several weeks.

Monster Hunter Wilds Players May Have Figured Out The Origin Of Zoh Shia

It’s significant that in Monster Hunter Wilds, Guardian creatures were made to safeguard an old civilization. And it appears that Zoh Shia follows this pattern as well. However, almost all Guardian monsters have been fashioned after existing beasts. So then, how did Zoh Shia come into being?

The first part of the theory has been floating around for some time— that it’s an amalgamation of many different monsters, including the deadly Fatalis. This is based on its varied move pool. It has attacks from three different versions of Fatalis, Safi’jiiva, Shara Ishvalda, Gaismagorm, and Alatreon. It’s conceivable that it was created using different parts of each of these creatures.

However, a new discovery, shared on Reddit by user JackNewbie555, has added credence to the fact that Zoh Shia is mainly built around Fatalis.

JackNewbie found that in the second phase of the Zoh Shia fight, the monster reveals its eyes, and these eyes are strikingly similar to those of the veteran wyvern, Fatalis. Both monsters have yellow eyeballs with a black, diamond-shaped slit down the middle of them.

It appears that Zoh Shia may have been predominantly created using Fatalis’ genetic material, but it also includes pieces from other monsters as well. This is intriguing.
