Transcript
00:00Welcome to the world of Monster Hunter Wilds.
00:06Together, we will journey to the Forbidden Lands, uncharted territory that the Guild has begun investigating.
00:14The Forbidden Lands were believed to be uninhabited until just a few years ago, when a boy named Nata was found there and taken into Guild protection.
00:24Nata was all alone after escaping an attack on his village by a mysterious monster.
00:29And the Guild has assembled an expedition to investigate.
00:33It seems we must do a more thorough investigation.
00:37Our objectives will be to investigate the monster, known as the White Wraith, and to rescue Nata's people, known as the Keepers.
00:49Oh, who am I, you ask?
00:51My name is Alma, and I'll be your guide on this journey.
00:56Are you ready to step into a world of adventure? Let's go!
01:07Each expedition unit consists of a Hunter, Handler, Smithy, and Palico.
01:14And it'll be all hands and paws on deck, with each unit carrying out their own vital roles for the Guild.
01:21As our unit's Hunter, you're sanctioned to bear weapons and hunt monsters.
01:31And as your Handler, it's my responsibility to manage your quests, authorize hunts, and ensure that you have all the information you need.
01:40Gemma, our Smithy, will take monster materials you provide and forge equipment for you.
01:47Perfection!
01:49And your Palico is your trusty companion, there to lend support whenever needed.
01:56We'll take it from here!
01:58I mentioned there's more than one unit. We belong to Avis unit.
02:04And we'll have the honor of teaming up with the other units, like Astrum unit, to see our mission through.
02:11The Guild gave special assignments to some of the other units in the expedition, mine included.
02:23Our initial foothold into the Forbidden Lands will be the Windward Plains.
02:28Due to its ever-changing weather, the plains will put both the wealth and the wrath of nature on full display.
02:36During the Fallow, ravenous carnivores battle for every scrap of food, and a phenomenon known as the Sandtide conjures thunder and lightning.
02:46After the storm comes the Plenty, a time of abundant life and fertility.
02:54With every shift in the environment, the creatures of the plains change their behavior to adapt and survive.
03:01To succeed in our expedition, we'll have to be every bit as observant, versatile, and resourceful.
03:16A rich, diverse ecosystem has arisen from the Windward Plains' unique climate.
03:22The Doshagama, for example, form packs centered around an alpha.
03:28Taking on multiple large monsters at once is a recipe for disaster.
03:34In order to face the alpha in a more ideal situation, it's wise to disperse the pack first.
03:44In sandy areas, you'll encounter Balahara.
03:47Their flexible bodies allow them to maneuver freely in and out of the sand.
03:53They're capable of creating quicksand traps.
03:56Unfortunate not just for hunters, but for any large monsters that get dragged into them.
04:02You may also encounter Chatakabra.
04:05Toad-like monsters that fear the more rocky areas of the plains.
04:09These monsters apply stealth to their prey.
04:11Toad-like monsters that fear the more rocky areas of the plains.
04:15These monsters apply sticky saliva to their forelimbs and then fortify them with minerals.
04:22The Chatakabra's sizable tongue, while crucial to its survival, is also its biggest weakness.
04:28Don't miss your chance to attack when the tongue is exposed.
04:32Nature has one rule.
04:34You're either the hunter or the hunted.
04:37That goes for monsters, too, as they battle for supremacy.
04:41In the Windward Plains, one creature sits squarely at the top of the food chain.
04:46In the Windward Plains, one creature sits squarely at the top of the food chain.
04:51Raidao.
04:53Often spotted during the onset of the sand tide, Raidao has adapted to the relentless lightning storms.
04:59And is able to use this adaptation to discharge devastating attacks to any that threaten its territory.
05:05If you are called upon to face it, hunter, I ask that you take extreme precaution.
05:12Hunting
05:19While out on hunts, you might spot some small creatures at your feet, or perched in the trees.
05:26All of the endemic life you see has evolved to survive in this harsh environment.
05:33I cannot help but to be amazed by these creatures.
05:36The sheer will to survive, even in such an unforgiving environment.
05:42Base Camp
05:47Let's talk about the Expedition's Base Camp.
05:51This is the heart of operations, where you can do practically everything.
05:55Whether it's crafting weapons and armor, or resupplying provisions.
06:00One tool that's sure to come in handy out in the vast expanse of the Plains is the Pop-Up Camp.
06:06While limited in number, these provide a sort of home away from home while out in the field.
06:16Pop-Up Camps serve as fast-travel waypoints.
06:22A place to change your equipment.
06:26And an item restocking point.
06:29See how useful they are?
06:31Of course, if a monster finds one of them, it might not last very long.
06:38We'll need to think carefully where exactly we set them up.
06:47In our travels, there's a chance we'll cross paths with the people of the Windward Plains.
06:54Our interactions with this new culture could be what sustains us on our quest.
07:01An incredible adventure awaits, with new monsters, new friendships, and awe-inspiring vistas.
07:16Weapon Selection
07:20I almost forgot. Have you decided on a weapon yet?
07:24Every Hunter's journey begins with Weapon Selection.
07:27Would you rather get in close and unleash with all your might?
07:31Keep your distance and dish out a relentless assault?
07:34Deliver stinging blows as you stand your ground?
07:37Or strike with a flurry of slicing attacks?
07:41Fourteen weapon types are available, and at least one of them is the perfect fit for you.
07:47If you're not sure what to pick, ask me. I can provide advice on which is the most suitable.
07:52If mobility is your first priority, then this weapon might be a good match.
08:06Hunters can't just rely on weapons. You'll need to make use of items like shock traps and barrel bombs.
08:12Not to mention any endemic life and geographical features that you come across.
08:16It's up to you to read the situation.
08:19One thing's for sure, hunting is hungry work.
08:23With your portable barbecue grill, you'll be able to prepare meals on the go.
08:31And yes, that includes meat.
08:49Your Palico is a feline companion that provides various types of support out in the field.
08:55Whether it's laying traps to hinder monsters,
08:59or healing you when you've taken a beating.
09:05The two of you make a pretty good team.
09:13Oh, that reminds me. Be sure to keep an eye on your health gauge.
09:19It will start shaking to warn against any potentially life-threatening attacks.
09:28There's no better way to traverse the Windward Plains than astride your Sacred.
09:33Whether it's a target you're trying to reach, or just a point on the map,
09:38your Sacred will follow the scent and take you there.
09:42Not only can you gather and use items on the go,
09:46you can even perform mounted attacks.
09:49And if you find yourself in a tight situation, you can call your Sacred,
09:54and it will swiftly take you out of harm's way.
09:57Whether you're hunting or just exploring, that extra mobility will prove rather useful.
10:09If you're struggling to face a monster alone, you'll be able to call for reinforcements.
10:16Fire an SOS flare, and up to three hunters will race to your side to assist with the hunt.
10:23In multiplayer, you'll be connected online with a team of hunters from around the world.
10:31If you are unable to fill the hunting party,
10:35or if you'd prefer to play offline,
10:38then NPC support hunters will come to your aid instead.
10:46Hunt monsters and harvest materials from them.
10:53Use those materials to upgrade your weapons and armor,
10:57and get out there and join the quest with your hunter friends.
11:01Your brand new life as a hunter is about to begin in Monster Hunter Wilds.
