For console players, Monster Hunter Wilds will launch at 12 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 28, in your region except for North America, where it’ll release across the continent at 12 a.m. EST — allowing West Coast players to catch Wilds in the late hours of Feb. 27.

Gamers waiting to purchase a new gaming laptop, desktop, or a CPU/GPU upgrade soon might be in luck thanks to a new offer from AMD. Gamers can get a free standard copy of Monster Hunter Wilds, which launches later this week, with a purchase of a new AMD-powered PC or one of its more recent CPUs and GPUs.
