In Monster Hunter Wilds, Every Weapon Has Its Own Unique Design - IGN First
Mar 19,2025Author: Connor
Monster Hunter: World's weapon designs weren't universally praised, leaving many wondering if *Monster Hunter Wilds* would improve upon them. While early glimpses of *Wilds*' weapons offered limited insight, Director Yuya Tokuda has provided clarification. Regarding the Hope series armor and weapons, Tokuda stated: "Incidentally, weapon designs in *Monster Hunter: World* generally retained a certain form, but they featured a customized appearance based on which monster materials were used. However, in *Wilds*, each weapon has its own unique design."
This directly addresses concerns about weapon similarity. Unlike *Monster Hunter: World*, where even highly upgraded weapons sometimes shared similar aesthetics (as seen in the example below comparing the final Aqua and Pukei-Pukei Sword and Shield, and the final Bone and Jyuratodus Long Swords), *Wilds* boasts distinctly unique weapon designs.
