Final Fantasy XIV’s Monster Hunter Wilds Collaboration Releasing Next Week

Square Enix announced that MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV‘s collaboration with Monster Hunter Wilds will release on October 7, 2025. The collaboration adds a new permanently available Duty titled The White Wanderer, which comes in both Normal and Extreme versions, and sees players facing off against Guardian Arkveld. It is available for those who have reached level 100 and completed the Dawntrail expansion’s original main story questline (up to the quest “Dawntrail”). Monster Hunter Wilds’s own collaboration event will release on September 29, 2025.

Taking place after the events of Endwalker, and marking the start of a major new story arc for the game, Dawntrail sees the Warrior of Light’s help requested for Tural’s contested rite of succession. The expansion adds two new Jobs: melee DPS role Viper and ranged DPS role Pictomancer. It also includes a new level cap of 100, new dungeons, new locations, new side content, and more.
