# Will Monster Hunter Wilds get Master Rank?

> Very likely. Every recent mainline Monster Hunter got a Master or G Rank expansion, but check Capcom's announcements for official details.

Very likely, but treat it as an expectation, not a fact, until Capcom announces it. Monster Hunter Wilds launched in February 2025 with High Rank as its endgame, and every recent mainline game has later received a large expansion that adds **Master Rank** (or G Rank in older games). Free title updates add monsters in the meantime.

## Why players expect Master Rank

- **The series pattern:** Monster Hunter World got Iceborne, Monster Hunter Rise got Sunbreak, and earlier games had G Rank versions such as Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and Generations Ultimate.
- **What it usually brings:** a new difficulty tier above High Rank, new and returning monsters, new move sets for weapons, a new region or hub and many more hours of endgame.
- **Timing:** the earlier expansions arrived roughly one and a half to two years after the base game.

## What to watch

Official news comes from Capcom's Monster Hunter showcases and announcements. Leaks and fan "release dates" are often wrong.

## FAQ

**What is Master Rank?**
The hardest tier of hunts, introduced in paid expansions. It brings stronger monsters and higher-tier gear.

**Is Monster Hunter Wilds too easy?**
Many veterans found the base game's High Rank easier than past games. Tougher variants added in updates, and a future expansion, are where the series traditionally raises the difficulty.

**What is the best weapon in Monster Hunter Wilds?**
There is no single best weapon; balance changes with updates. Pick the weapon whose playstyle you enjoy, since skill with it matters most.
