When does Lagiacrus release in Monster Hunter Wilds?

by

In Monster Hunter Tri, the Lagiacrus created quite a splash with its unique underwater combat traits, leaving players excited for its return. However, when Wilds was first released, it didn’t make an appearance. Fortunately, the Lagiacrus is set to reappear in an upcoming update—here’s what you should know.

MH Wilds Lagiacrus release date

As per the demonstration for the update titled “Monster Hunter Wilds,” the creature known as Lagiacrus is predicted to debut in the summer season of 2025. Given that the first update usually arrives earlier, we might speculate a launch around early June. However, it could also possibly be released at a later date in July.

Although details about the remodeled Lagiacrus are yet to be fully disclosed, the closing moments of the presentation provide us a tantalizing peek. Witness its famous claws clutching another beast, as well as its imposing, scaled physique, hinting at its fierce comeback from the depths.

The announcement hints at the possibility of underwater fights potentially being introduced into Monster Hunter Wilds, a move that could significantly alter gameplay much like it did with Trio. The concept of underwater battles has always been intriguing in gaming, so we look forward to seeing how Monster Hunter Wilds will approach this challenge.

Previously in my Monster Hunter adventures, the Lagiacrus had a knack for unloading electric blasts from its back, especially when near water. It’d dish out massive damage that way. When its health got low, it’d retreat to solid ground and switch up its strategies, taking advantage of the new terrain.

In Monster Hunter Wilds, it seems likely that the gameplay will adhere to a familiar pattern, allowing players to chop off tails, sharpen claws, and shatter horns. Additionally, there’s an exciting prospect of a fresh armor set, which could be characterized by the vibrant blue hues reminiscent of the Sea King. This new attire is expected to imbue your equipment with a timeless aquatic charm, making it ideal for the summer’s water-themed ambiance.

With Title Update 1’s release date now confirmed, we can expect the official drop date of the Lagiacrus to be announced shortly. I’ll stay tuned for any further updates in the meantime. In the meanwhile, mark your calendars for April 4, as that’s when the Mizutsune will make its debut. With their arrival, it’s a good idea to boost your Hunter Rank to prepare for encounters with beasts such as the Lagiacrus and Mizutsune, given they both have specific level requirements.
