How To Play Online In Monster Hunter Wilds

As a passionate Monster Hunter Wilds player, I have the liberty to customize my gaming experience based on my preferences. I can establish various types of lobbies that cater to my style of play. Furthermore, utilizing the Link Party and Link Environment features allows me to synchronize my game world with others, embarking on investigations together seamlessly.

How To Create A Lobby

In the Forbidden Lands, lobbies serve as meeting points among players at various base camps. These areas go by different labels based on their functions. To find a specific lobby or join a random public one, simply approach Alma and choose from one of four available options.

The different Lobby Categories are:

  • Recommended Lobby: This option enables you to join a random lobby based on your preferences (which you can previously set up.)
  • Lobby Search: You can choose more specific options to join Lobbies that cater to your tastes, or if you want to look for a specific Lobby ID.
  • Private Lobby: This creates a private lobby; players can only join by typing the Lobby ID (which you’ll see in your Communication Menu) or by being invited by you. It has fewer maximum players that can join, but you will remain in it after every Quest ends without being separated.
  • Online Single Player: This is Solo mode for you, and it lets you Pause the game should you need it, while also enabling you to invite random players during Quests, by using the SOS Flare.

How To Link Parties

If you’re in a shared public space and you come across a team working harmoniously, would you like to continue playing with them without setting up your own private room? Here’s an easy way to do just that: Join Forces with Them.

Connecting a party can be achieved by opting for ‘Link Party’ within the Communication Menu, which guarantees that you and three other fellow hunters will stay united following the completion of a quest. In contrast to a Private Lobby, using ‘Link Environment’ allows you to explore a unified world, where all four players are synced to a single environment, enabling joint adventures and investigations.

Connecting with a group ensures you’ll receive notifications when any member initiates a new quest. This way, you can promptly access the Communications panel and participate in their quest directly from the Invitations area.

How To Add Friends

In the Communication section, you have the option to either select any player from the Lobby Member List by clicking on them or input a Hunter ID to extend an invitation to your Friend List. This way, you can keep in contact with each other even after a gaming session has ended, if you’d like to spend more time together later!

How To Create A Squad

If you’re interested in deepening your friendships, consider forming a Squad! These groups can accommodate as many as 50 members and you can join up to eight distinct Squads; each one provides exclusive features such as private chat rooms, dedicated message boards, and additional perks tailored for the group.

To Join or Create a Squad, you must talk to Felicitas in the Windward Plains Base Camp.
