Monster Hunter Wilds has finally arrived, and Capcom's first two time-limited event quests in the new action RPG are now available to complete for unique rewards.

It's been a rocky few days for the latest Monster Hunter entry, between lows like performance issues and highs like record-shattering sales, but the game is holding strong as one of 2025's most monumental releases – and it's only getting bigger. Capcom has just launched the action RPG's first-ever time-limited event quests, giving players the opportunity to obtain items like a special armor piece that they won't be able to get otherwise.

The event quests and their current schedule are detailed on Capcom's official Monster Hunter website, with the initial two falling between now and March 18 – a solid two weeks to snag the first few rewards, including the Mimiphyta α headgear from Kut-Ku Gone Cuckoo and Kunafa Cheese from Stalking Supper. The only requirement set for participating players is a Hunter Rank of at least nine – a relatively easy level to hit post-story.

Another event quest drops on March 11, lasting just one week and requiring a higher HR of 21. This quest, titled Tongue-Tied, gives rare Hard Armor Spheres and Advanced Armor Spheres for easier gear upgrades. That's not all, though – Capcom has three more event quests up its sleeve on March 18, including Ballet in the Rain, Sand-Scarred Soul, and Like a Fire Hidden by Sand, with glowing decorative items and Expedition Headgear α.

It sounds like a few fun weeks are ahead for the Monster Hunter community between the time-limited event quests and coming patches. Capcom revealed that developers are also working on the first free update, after all, cooking to bring fresh content and some behemoth beasts to what our own Monster Hunter Wilds review calls "the new peak of the series."
