Monster Hunter Wilds Free Title Update 4 Adds Gogmazios on December 16
Capcom's massive free update brings the Giant Halberd Dragon Gogmazios, 8-player hunts, Gogma Artian Weapons, and the Festival of Accord seasonal event.
The hunt continues with the biggest free update yet. Monster Hunter Wilds Free Title Update 4 arrives on December 16, 2025, bringing the terrifying Elder Dragon Gogmazios and a wealth of new content for hunters worldwide.

The Giant Halberd Dragon Awakens
Gogmazios, known as the "Giant Halberd Dragon" (Kyogekiryuu), makes its triumphant return from Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. This mysterious Elder Dragon is covered in thick black viscous liquid, with a massive object resembling a Dragonator lodged in its back—a haunting reminder of past encounters with humanity.
To face this ancient terror, hunters must reach Hunter Rank 100+ and complete the Main Mission: A First Cry. This is no ordinary hunt.

8-Player Cooperative Hunts
For the first time in Monster Hunter Wilds, Update 4 introduces 8-player hunts. Teams consist of four primary hunters and four support hunters, creating an unprecedented scale of cooperative gameplay.
Returning characters join the battle as support hunters: - Nadia (Light Bowgun) - Fabius (returning ally) - Griffin (Great Sword) - Yamisugure (Light Bowgun)
After completing the extra mission, the Gogmazios quest becomes a permanent event quest, allowing hunters to farm this legendary monster at will.

Gogma Artian Weapons
Defeat Gogmazios to craft the powerful Gogma Artian Weapons, upgraded from Rarity 8 Artian Weapons using materials from the Giant Halberd Dragon. These weapons feature:
- One Series Skill and One Group Skill per weapon
- Gogma Reinforce function for strengthening bonuses
- Ability to reroll Set Bonus Skills and Group Skills
- Restoration enhancement with bonus carry-over or reset options
Additionally, the winning designs from the Monster Hunter Wilds Design Contest debut as a new Great Sword and pendant.

Armor Transcendence
Hunters at HR 100+ gain access to the new Transcendence system, expanding maximum armor levels. Rarity 5-6 armor receives enhanced decoration slots, giving veteran hunters more build flexibility than ever.
The Dahaad γ armor set arrives with the Arch-tempered Jin Dahaad quest on December 24, offering even more endgame options.

Festival of Accord: Lumenhymn
Celebrate the season with the Festival of Accord: Lumenhymn, running from December 19 through January 14, 2026. This seasonal event transforms the hub with festive decorations and limited-time rewards.
