Capcom has released a new Monster Hunter Wilds video to show off another of the many weapons included in the game. We’re talking about the Long Sword, a classic weapon already used in other chapters of the series.
As the launch approaches, Capcom is redoubling its efforts to publicize as many aspects as possible of its highly anticipated game, the new major chapter in its best-selling series ever, which rivals Resident Evil in popularity.
A classic weapon
The video shows us what is essentially a strong melee weapon, to be used for direct attacks carried out while staying close to the opponents. It does not seem to be too suited to a particularly mobile playstyle, but it is still interesting because it seems to guarantee a more classic approach to hunting.
The official description reads, “For those who have studied the sword. Embrace the flow of the hunt and strike back in the blink of an eye. Charge your Spirit Orb to power up your attacks. With Focus Mode, strike with pinpoint accuracy and seal the fate of monsters.”
As mentioned, in the last few days Capcom has published a long series of videos dedicated to Monster Hunter Wilds. If you like, you can see one dedicated to the Greatsword, one to the Heavy Crossbow and one to the Glaive. For the rest, we remind you that the release of Monster Hunter Wilds has been set for 2025. We will be able to play it on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. The PC version will be launched on Steam.
