Unlock All Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Guide

For all the completionists and trophy hunters out there, *Monster Hunter Wilds* offers a range of challenging hidden achievements that are sure to test your skills. Here’s a detailed guide on how to unlock all the hidden achievements in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

All Hidden and Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds

There are 12 secret achievements in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Seven of these are linked to the main storyline and will unlock naturally as you progress through the game. The other five are tied to specific optional objectives, which we'll detail 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 any map, 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. Alma will often comment when you're near a creature with the Ancient Wyvern Coin, hinting at its presence.

A Legacy Restored

Once you reach High Rank missions, you can start crafting Artian gear. To obtain Rarity 8 weapons and materials, you'll need to hunt Tempered monsters while equipped with Rarity 7 gear.

Seasoned Hunter

Don't confuse Tempered monsters with Frenzied monsters; the former are outlined in purple on the minimap, while the latter are in red. You can start encountering Tempered monsters from Chapter 4 onwards in High Rank content. Both slaying and capturing them will count towards this achievement.

Top of the Food Chain

This achievement requires you to hunt 50 Apex Predators. The monsters that count towards this achievement are Rey, Dau, Uth, Duna, Nu, Udra, and Jin Dahaad.

That's how you can 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.
