Capcom Faces Backlash Over Paid Character Edits in Monster Hunter Wilds

Players must pay for customization vouchers to make significant changes to their characters or companions after initial creation.

Monster Hunter Wilds launched with over 1.2 million concurrent players on Steam, but its microtransactions have drawn criticism.
Players can customize their characters and companions for free at the start, but further significant edits require paid vouchers starting at $6 USD.
One free voucher is provided for additional character and companion edits, but subsequent changes require real-world purchases.
Review copies of the game did not include details about these microtransactions, surprising players post-launch.
Despite its commercial success, the game's microtransactions and technical issues have sparked disappointment among fans.
