Capcom has announced<\/a> updates to character editing in Monster Hunter Wilds<\/strong>, planned to roll out alongside the Ascendance expansion in 2027. The update will allow players to re-edit their characters\u2019 appearances (hunter and Palico) for free as many times as they like without using Character Editing Vouchers, a paid in-game item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This change will apply to all players regardless of whether they purchase the upcoming DLC, while Character Editing Vouchers themselves will be removed from the game starting December 3 this year. Any vouchers players still own will remain valid and usable until the system update in 2027. Additionally, as a temporary measure until Ascendance\u2019s release, Capcom will provide players will 10 Character Edit Vouchers and 10 Palico Edit Vouchers each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Originally, Monster Hunter Wilds provided one free voucher for editing your hunter and Palico respectively, while further editing required the purchase of paid vouchers. Three-Voucher Packs cost $6.99, while a bundled character and Palico Edit Voucher three-pack cost $9.99. With this system being abolished, editing your character\u2019s appearance will become fully free without any limits imposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, everyone who has previously paid for Character Edit Vouchers will receive a Special Thank-You Pendant Set (Heavenly Hog and Beelzeboar), which can be claimed in-game starting December 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monster Hunter Wilds is available on PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. A Nintendo Switch 2 edition is scheduled to launch on December 4, while the Ascendance expansion is planned for 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
