HOW YOU PLAYSolo & cooperative hunts
THE SETTINGThe Forbidden Lands
FOR PLAYERS WHO LOVELearning weapons & hunting with friends
01

A world that changes around the hunt

The Forbidden Lands bring changing environments and monsters into the same ecosystem. Your hunter investigates this region with an expedition team.

02

Focus on the opening

Focus Mode helps direct attacks and guards. Wounds and weak points create opportunities for Focus Strikes. Your weapon choice changes how you approach those openings.

03

Travel with your Seikret

The Seikret mount helps hunters move through the landscape. Wilds supports cross-platform play, so the platform your friends use does not have to divide your hunting group.

GO ONE LEVEL DEEPER

The player’s field guide.

Weapon familiarity, wounds and a changing environment shape each hunt. Start with the fundamentals before chasing a build.

01 / KNOW THE DETAILS

Fourteen weapon types

Wilds offers fourteen weapon types with different attack patterns. Your Seikret can carry a second weapon, letting you change tools during a hunt. That creates flexibility without requiring you to learn everything immediately.

02 / KNOW THE DETAILS

Focus Mode and wounds

Focus Mode directs attacks and guards, while Focus Strikes exploit wounds and weak points. Learn to recognize the visual opening before worrying about optimizing the entire damage rotation.

03 / KNOW THE DETAILS

An evolving environment

The Forbidden Lands change with harsh conditions and periods of abundance. Monsters respond to those environments. Exploration and observation help explain why an encounter can feel different on another visit.

04 / KNOW THE DETAILS

Hunting across platforms

The game supports cross-platform multiplayer. Crossplay describes playing together; it should not be interpreted as a promise that saves transfer between platforms. Check the current online manual for party setup.
