Monster Hunter Wilds: Captured Beasts Escape

Authore: FinnUpdate:Mar 13,2025

While many associate *Monster Hunter* with the thrill of the hunt, capturing monsters is a crucial element, offering unexpected rewards. *Monster Hunter Wilds* players have stumbled upon a humorous quirk: captured monsters don't simply vanish; they get up and leave after a short time.

Reddit user RDGtheGreat, on r/MonsterHunter, shared this observation: after capturing a Nu Udra and patiently waiting, the colossal cephalopod simply ambled away. This amusing scene sparked comparisons to a film wrap, adding a lighthearted touch to the gameplay.

This seemingly unplanned animation, rather than a simple fade-out, adds depth and hints at their research methods. The sight of a multi-limbed monster, now somewhat depleted, waddling away is undeniably comical, yet subtly enhances the game's narrative.
