In earlier Monster Hunter titles, quests formed the foundation of gameplay. You would grab them at your base, prepare your gear, embark on your hunt, and then return home. However, Monster Hunter Wilds introduces a fresh approach, enhancing the quest system to make each hunt feel distinct and personal.
Nevertheless, not all traditional quests have been abandoned. Event Quests make a comeback in Monster Hunter Wilds, featuring a tailored experience and exclusive rewards. Navigating these quests may be a bit overwhelming at first, so let’s explore what Event Quests have to offer.
What Are Event Quests?
While most hunts in Wilds stem from dynamic Field Surveys, a variety of quests still exist, focusing on straightforward hunting without any extra frills. Event Quests provide a twist, featuring distinctive rewards and specific challenges. These might guarantee certain item drops or involve monsters of particular sizes.
The monsters featured in these quests can also be unique. For instance, in the Kut-Ku Gone Cuckoo quest, you’ll find yourself in the Scarlet Forest, where you only encounter Yian Kut-Ku in groups. This presents a unique challenge and tailored rewards, making it a refreshing break from more routine hunts.
Are Event Quests Permanent?
With a title like ‘Event Quests’, it may seem like they’re fleeting, and unfortunately, that’s the case. Currently, Event Quests are available for a limited time before vanishing. This deviates from earlier games like Monster Hunter Rise, where these quests were always available.
Instead, it aligns more with the approach used in Monster Hunter World, where Event Quests are only around for a set duration. If Wilds follows in its predecessor’s footsteps, these quests will eventually return in a rotation. However, this means you’ll need to log in during specific timeframes to take on certain quests, so make sure to mark your calendar to catch the essential ones.
Capcom maintains a live schedule for all of Wilds’ Event Quests on their official website, keeping you up-to-date.
Every Event Quest and Its Rewards
Each Event Quest comes with its distinct setting and rewards, but time is of the essence as you won’t have endless opportunities to attempt them. Be sure to check them out when you can, and here’s a rundown of their rewards if you happen to miss any.
| Event Quest | Monster To Hunt | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Kut-Ku Gone Cuckoo | Yian Kut-Ku | Mimiphyta α. |
| Stalking Supper | Quematrice | Cooking ingredients, focusing on Kunafa Cheese. |

This list of Event Quests will be updated as new ones are announced.
Based on previous games, Monster Hunter Wilds is sure to roll out numerous Event Quests featuring exclusive armor and enhanced drops for rare items. It will require some strategy and timing to tackle each hunt effectively. But for now, get out there and dive into the current Event Quests!
