As a seasoned Monster Hunter veteran with over a decade of slaying beasts under my belt, I can confidently say that the addition of weapon-swapping in Monster Hunter: Wilds has taken the series to new heights. The ability to bring two weapons on a hunt and switch between them seamlessly during combat is nothing short of revolutionary.
Currently, the Open Beta for Monster Hunter: Wilds is available in the open, sparking excitement among players eager to explore its new features. Among these, the ability to cook anywhere and set up portable campsites stands out. Yet, what truly sets Wilds apart is the liberty it offers to carry two weapons during a hunt.
The ability to change weapons during gameplay on your Seikret is convenient since you can do so instantly while in action. For instance, you might choose a Bow as your main weapon, but if an enemy prefers close combat, you can quickly switch to a Greatsword as a backup option.
In this Monster Hunter: Wilds tutorial, we’ll show you how to change weapons during combat:
Befriend Your Seikret
Among the great aspects of Monster Hunter: Wilds, a standout feature is your latest ally, the Seikret. These creatures resemble Chocobos and are quite useful for traveling from one location to another. While it shares the same control scheme as Palamutes in Monster Hunter: Rise, the Seikret boasts an added advantage—it can glide with its wings, offering a significant improvement.
Familiarizing yourself with the Seikret controls can significantly reduce time, especially in critical moments. It allows you to retrieve items from its pouch or sharpen your weapon during intense action scenes. Moreover, it’s the unique method to instantly change weapons during gameplay.
Go Inside Your Camp
At our campsite, we find the most secure refuge during our expeditions through the Forbidden Lands. Within its confines, you’re able to don your armor, replenish supplies, and crucially, select an additional weapon for use.
Here’s where the action unfolds! The Open Beta may have been limited to essential weapon collections, but it boasted at least fourteen distinct weapons. Deciding on your primary or secondary weapon shouldn’t pose too much difficulty. If you’re a seasoned Monster Hunter from the PlayStation 2 era, chances are you’ve got your preferred weapon all set!
Regarding my advice, it’s worth having two types of weapons, one suitable for long-range and one for close combat situations. But since I’m a hammer enthusiast, I would likely opt for a second hammer as a backup instead.
The Switch Button
By pushing the correct directional button on your control, you can effortlessly switch between two weapons. However, make sure you are in the right position (or “on your mark”) first, or else there won’t be any change.

The open beta phase for Monster Hunter: Wilds concludes on November 4, leaving eager players with a disappointing anticipation gap. However, the silver lining is that the full game will be available starting February 28 of next year. This means a rather lengthy four-month wait lies ahead.
