Whether players are hunting down apex predators or simply carving their way to the biggest and baddest monsters in the game,Monster Hunter Wilds' combat system ensures they will witness an unprecedented cinematic display at every turn.
Obviously,Monster Hunter Wilds' visualsare above and beyond anything the series has ever done, as should be the case with every new installment. It isn’t just the graphics, though, that makeMonster Hunter Wildsmore cinematic than the series has been in the past, as its combat system is at the heart of why this particular entry can be more flashy than any installment to date. With the new Focus Mode and the explosive dynamics created by the game’s weather system,Monster Hunter Wildsis truly one of the series' greatest when it comes to presentation.
Monster Hunter Wilds Combat System Makes It a Cinematic Spectacle
Monster Hunter Wilds' Focus Mode Lets Players Pull Off Some Spectacular Combat Sequences
One of the primary waysMonster Hunter Wildsaffirms itself as a cinematic entry in the franchise is through its Focus Mode. In fact,Monster Hunter Wilds' Focus Modeand the Focus Strikes that follow make up the game’s most prominent combat mechanics, and the most effective method for players to deal significant damage to a monster. Upon using Focus Mode to target and repeatedly attack a specific area on a monster’s body, players will open a Wound in that area. From there, the Wound will be highlighted by a red light and players can attack that area to destroy the wound.

It isn’t Focus Mode in and of itself that makesMonster Hunter Wilds' fights so cinematic, though, as that comes into play with the subsequent Focus Strikes. When players attack a monster’s openWound inMonster Hunter Wilds, they can trigger a Focus Strike, which will allow their hunter to pull off some spectacular (and quite unbelievable) combat sequences that are just as much for show as they are for efficiency. This is just one of the waysMonster Hunter Wildsensures players' combat maneuvers look and feel just as big as the monsters they are fighting.

There is nothing quite like when a storm suddenly moves in and players are not only required to adapt their combat strategies, but they also find themselves right in the middle of what feels like the climactic moment of a Hollywood blockbuster. With lightning strikes crashing all around them, fiery explosions bursting from the ground, and torrential rain pouring down on them in the heat of battle, players are in for a wild ride inMonster Hunter Wilds.
The amount of detail poured intoMonster Hunter Wilds' world also provides players with a larger-than-life backdrop for each battle.

Meanwhile, the dynamic weather system keeps battles unpredictable and chaotic, immersing players in the kind of large-scale, high-intensity encounters that the series has always aimed for but never quite achieved at this level. With these elements,Monster Hunter Wildstransforms the series' defining formula into something bigger, bolder, and more visually stunning than ever before.
