Monster Hunter Wilds has made a colossal splash upon its release, garnering nearly 1 million concurrent players on Steam. Launched across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S, this action-packed adventure from Capcom has surged to become the eighth most-played game on Steam of all time, boasting an impressive peak of 987,482 concurrent users.
To give you some perspective, Monster Hunter Wilds has surpassed the all-time peak concurrent player counts of juggernauts like Elden Ring, Hogwarts Legacy, and Baldur’s Gate 3. It has even eclipsed the peak figures of its predecessor, Monster Hunter World, which reached a high of 334,684 concurrent players on Steam back in 2018.
It's important to mention that the actual peak concurrent figures for Monster Hunter Wilds are likely to be significantly higher, as neither Sony nor Microsoft disclose their player statistics.

As Monster Hunter Wilds gears up for its first weekend on sale, the burning question is how much further can its Steam concurrent player count climb? There's a strong chance it will break the 1 million concurrent players mark today, potentially overtaking Cyberpunk 2077. Could it even reach the lofty heights of 2 million players?
While Capcom has yet to release official sales figures for Monster Hunter Wilds, all indicators suggest a blockbuster launch. For context, Monster Hunter World achieved over 25 million sales in six years, securing its place as Capcom's top-selling game ever. However, it's worth noting that Monster Hunter Wilds has received a 'mixed' user review rating on Steam, with some players citing performance issues.
IGN's review of Monster Hunter Wilds awarded it an 8/10, stating: "Monster Hunter Wilds continues to smooth off the rougher corners of the series in smart ways, making for some extremely fun fights but also lacking any real challenge."
