Monster Hunter Wilds Players Discover Captured Monsters Will Eventually Just Exit Stage Left

Author : Ethan Update : Mar 21,2025

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 eventually get up and leave!

Reddit user RDGtheGreat, on r/MonsterHunter, shared this observation: after capturing a Nu Udra and patiently waiting, the giant cephalopod casually rises and ambles away. The scene has sparked amusement, with many comparing it to a film wrap.

While in-game explanations are scarce (the research team doesn't exactly have giant monster cages!), *Monster Hunter Wilds*' catch-and-release approach aligns with Alma and the crew's overall attitude. This seemingly unplanned animation, rather than a simple fade-out, adds a charming touch. The sight of a multi-limbed cephalopod, slightly worse for wear, waddling off is undeniably funny, yet subtly hints at the researchers' methods.
