Monster Hunter Wilds: Gunlance | Weapons Overview
We’re going to be taking a look at the weapons that have been confirmed for Monster Hunter Wilds so far as per the last blog. There have also been a number of new features announced regarding how you’ll use your weapons in Wilds, so get ready: there’s a whole new world waiting for you.
According to the official Monster Hunter Wilds website, the next game will feature a game-changing feature regarding weapons: "Your Seikret isn't just for traveling, though. You can also fit an additional weapon into your weapon sling, allowing you to switch between two weapons of your choice while hunting."
The ability to carry two weapons and switch between them thanks to the sling on your Seikret mount can make a huge difference when hunting, so this is a new feature you’ll want to use right away.
