All Hidden and Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds
Monster Hunter Wilds features 12 secret achievements. Seven of these are linked to the main storyline and will unlock as you progress through the game. The remaining five are tied to optional objectives, detailed below:
I Caught a Shooting Star!: Caught a creature in the desert that shines like a shooting star.
A Prize Held High: Caught a creature that bears an Ancient Wyvern Coin.
A Legacy Restored: Obtained an Artian Weapon of Rarity 8.
Seasoned Hunter: Hunted 50 Tempered monsters.
Top of the Food Chain: Hunted 50 Apex Predators.
While some of these achievements are straightforward, others require a bit more effort. Let's dive into how to unlock each one.
I Caught a Shooting Star!
To unlock this achievement, head to Zone 11 of the Windward Plains at night. Equip yourself with screamer pods and keep an eye out for a Baunos flying near the gathering spots. Use the screamer pods to stun it, then quickly catch it with your Capture Net.
A Prize Held High
This achievement can be achieved in various maps, but Zone 6 of the Scarlet Forest is a good spot. Look for a small puddle of water and use your Capture Net to catch the small golden crab lurking there. Alma will often comment when you're near a creature carrying the Ancient Wyvern Coin, so listen for her cues.
A Legacy Restored
Once you reach High Rank missions, you can start crafting Artian gear. To obtain Rarity 8 weapons, you'll need to hunt Tempered monsters while equipped with Rarity 7 gear.
Seasoned Hunter
Don't confuse Tempered monsters with Frenzied ones; the former are marked in purple on the minimap, while the latter are outlined in red. You can start encountering Tempered monsters from Chapter 4 onwards in High Rank content. Both slaying and capturing them will contribute to this achievement.
Top of the Food Chain
This achievement requires you to hunt 50 Apex Predators. The following monsters count towards this goal:
- Rey
- Dau
- Uth
- Duna
- Nu
- Udra
- Jin
- Dahaad
And that's how you unlock all the hidden achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more tips and information on the game, including the best gathering set to use, be sure to check out The Escapist.
