Monster Hunter Wilds Unveils New Event and Challenge Quest Lineup Featuring Tough Tempered Monsters

Monster Hunter Wilds has just unleashed a fresh lineup of limited-time quests for everyone to dive into. With the arrival of Challenge Quests in Title Update 1, the schedule now boasts both Event Quests and these new Challenge Quests.

This week’s batch feels like it’s turned up the difficulty dial, likely because most players are well into the depths of the endgame by now. It’s also possible this spike in challenge is a response to feedback about the major fights not always living up to their daunting reputations.

This updated schedule covers the weeks of April 14, April 21, and April 28. Each week’s quests kick off on Wednesday, so this week’s challenges are already underway.

Now, you’ve got some flexibility: the quests from the first week remain available for two more weeks, allowing you to tackle everything at once if that suits your style. However, be aware that the second and third weeks’ schedules are identical. Pretty typical, except for the steep difficulty spike thanks to some Tempered monsters making an appearance.

So, without further delay, let’s break down what’s on the docket for the next few weeks in Monster Hunter Wilds.
