Monster Hunter Wilds is ending the year with one of its largest updates yet. Title Update 4 launches on December 16, introducing the game’s first Elder Dragon, Gogmazios.
In the follow-up to Monster Hunter Wilds Showcase earlier this month, Capcom teased a busy December, leading into the holiday season. Check out everything new in Monster Hunter Wilds’ Update 4 below.
Gogmazios makes its debut
Gogmazios makes an enormous battlefield impact in this first Elder Dragon showdown, towering over the terrain and hurling death-dealing laser blasts that will slice right through the environment.
Hunters will also need to look out for air phases and near-suicidal screen-shaking damage windows. The attack pattern will heavily rely on positioning and staying calm under pressure.
New Artian weapons and Armor Transcendence
Defeating Gogmazios drops off materials to craft new Gogma Artian weapons, which feature new bonus skills and the randomised group skill mechanic, opening up new possibilities for build experimentation.
The new Armor Transcendence system further improves your gear and buffs rarity 5 and 6 decoration slots.
Seasonal events and Jin Dahaad details
The Festival of Accord: Lumenhymn will run from December 19 to January 14, filled with seasonal activities and rewards. On December 24, players will also be able to tackle Arch-Tempered Jin Dahaad, a seasonal special that just so happens to arrive right before Christmas.
Coming soon, Arch-Tempered Arkveld will land in Update 1.041 on February 18, 2026, along with more Advanced Quests, new cooperative gameplay, and a monster crossover with Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection.
