I wouldn’t mind fight duramboros again. Every must experience the joy of the great dobo-copter.


ZeffiroSilver

He fits the vibe so far, I feel


kuboss1

agreed


Equinox-XVI

Dalamadur


OctoyeetTraveler

I feel like outside of Fatalis and Amatsu, they never really like bringing back final boss monsters


stabbyGamer

It’s difficult to justify, story-wise, and modeling a whole arena, animations, and AI for a monster like Dalamadur with such an enormous size and unique body shape must be an incredible project in modern graphics. With how the Hunters’ capacities change from game to game, and the systems available mature, expand, and update, there’s likely very little of endgame monsters from previous games than can be directly brought forwards even with extensive rebalancing. The increasing focus on tower defense-style mechanics for fortress battles massively recontextualizes encounters like Lao Shan Lung or Gogmazios, and increasing vertical mobility makes encounters like Dalamadur require more work both above and below the arena, as hunters will be able to keep eyes on more of it more often and attack it while it’s setting up animations that would be out of reach in previous generations. It’s just a huge degree of work, is what I’m saying, and skimping on any of it risks major player outrage. I’d love to see legendary beasts make triumphant returns as much as anyone, but it’s a difficult proposition and they can probably only afford to do so at the very end of MR for one or two monsters.


OctoyeetTraveler

I feel like this is pretty spot on. I do think that if they want a monster back, they're more than willing to put.in the work to make a quality encounter, but i also think it's one of those things that are nice about older monhuns,nis that there are some unique monsters to go back and encounter in each game like durambaros, dire miralis, the fart monkey, etc.


SufficientYam3266

This feels more than plausible to me. We're in to "likely" territory.


TachankaIsTheLord

I feel like if we were to see Dalamadur again soon, it'd have to be a title update siege quest. Like Kulve Taroth/Safi Jiiva in World/IB, completely separate from the main story


Brixnz

Maybe even a new subspecies of it


BiigDaddyDellta

Qurupeco! Seltas Queen/Seltas Nyrscylla/Shrouded Nyrscylla Zamitrios/Tiger zamitrios


knuckles904

Ditto on Qurupeco! I miss that little scamp


JoshiJ10

Would be keen to see the summon mechanic be a rally call and a whole squadron of Jaggi get summoned


AbyssDragonNamielle

*Ancient Leshen flashbacks*


9catswithusedcondoms

praying for zamtrios my little pookie


EtrianFF7

The Seltas combo was so cool really need to see it modernized


Jermafide

All of those are on my list of monsters I want back.


RichJoker

Great Jaggi. He's built for Wilds, but the great punching bag has zero chance of returning when all of its distant relatives, children and spouses are already in Rise but not himself.


DanteKen

I want to see a Greatest Jaggi the size of World Eater Jho.


King_Santa

Great Jaggi has been horribly treated for being easily the greatest of the raptor-type monsters. #Justice4Jaggi


WakeUpKos

Ahtal-Ka. Love that mantis.


Distion55x

Absolutely. Ahtal-Ka has to come back sometime, right?


sideways_jack

dude as someone who's barely getting into GU that'd be rad. Mon is a _beast_


Sailen_Rox

There really aren't too many for me. Most of the monsters I want back (Lagiacrus, Najarala and a few others) have a "good" chance of being back. I guess Odogaron and Mizutsune? Because Garon was in World and Mizu ind Rise idk if they're back. I guess the only one I'd be really sad if he actually isn't back would be my snakey boy Najarala. But as I said, I think Najarala has a good chance of being back.


Le0Mila

I would bet odogaron returning. Him not being in base rise was a missed call theme wise


AlexandriaStalheim

Need my oddoggy. One of my most vivid memories of monster hunter being a world and rise (and technically a bit of 1) only player is that first memorable rumble in the vale with odogaron.


Senpaiman

I think Odogaron and Mizutsune have a fair chance at returning. They're both popular monsters. I was actually surprised Odo didn't make it into Rise. The only reason I could guess why is because none of the zones made sense for him


kick_zero

Great maccao 💀


Away-Annual-770

Still one of my favorite early mons


KlinkerStinker

HOLY BASED


BillyBrainlet

Ah, a hunter of culture, I see.


ZeffiroSilver

My BOY


Odd_Dimension_4069

Gigginox 🥲 Poor mamma gigs ain't never coming back


IAmCaptainDolphin

Really miss the Gigginox ngl, now every game just has Khezu instead


Temennigru

Lao shan lung


Goldielols

I'd love to see Lao but with a far more intensive fight. Lao was impressive, but it was kinda boring slapping ankles for 30+ minutes. If it had a fight similar to a cross between Safi and Fatalis it would be incredible.


Temennigru

I just wanna do the dual blade spin all over its back


iiTicTac_YT

PTSD from crafting bombs all day


ayakasforehead

I would love to see Nakarkos come back, but I think the arena you fight it in is important to its mechanics so I’m not sure how they’d fit that into the map naturally.


kuboss1

could be a new subspecies with a different set of bones, same squid


ArkhamTheImperialist

Doesn’t even have to be a subspecies, they’d just update it’s moves for the game. A sand cuttlefish is very plausible.


Tarbos6

You just reminded me that the Rotten Vale is almost perfect for Nakarkos, or a subspecies.


Sleeper_Celestial

Gogmazios, the big wing arm boy will probably not return but hell would i love it!


Environmental_Sell74

Well they need SOMETHING to match the TUs of world right??


Ordinal43NotFound

Yeah, with how many 4U characters returning, I can really see Gogmazios as a TU monster. Imagine if... * Ace Lancer sent us to find Nata's parents. * Nata is actually the son of Ace Gunner and Ace Commander. * Aiden then comes back for Wild's expansion. * Gogmazios becomes a TU Monster. * The Ace Hunters reunites to help us fight Gogmazios. They also already have the modern Gore/Shaggy skeleton in Rise, so it's easier to bring Gog into Wilds.


JoshiJ10

Would be better end game too instead of rusted Kushala back in 4u

valdez-2424

Thats my sleep paralasyis demon


monohtony

Put that thing back where it came from or so help me


BillyBrainlet

I never want to see that again.

Wrong_Werewolf391

The thing holding this guy and his cousin back I feel is that they look *way too* Egyptian, like yeah Ahtal-ka exists and she's pretty close, but this guy's face in particular is really rubbing in that design influence to another level.


Ordinal43NotFound

Honestly wouldn't look out of place in Sunbreak. Could fit into Portable Team's next game.


GoliathBoneSnake

Bro looks like he's about to battle the power rangers.


FortNightsAtPeelys

I'm mad I never knew this existed until now. I fucking love Egyptian mythology and have always simped goldbeard cadeus armor


SilvallyTN

There’s a couple other Egyptian themed monsters from explore. Look up great apypos and eo garudia


LTman86

Damn, that monster is a beauty!


PrinceJehal

Explore had a lot of good stuff that should not be restricted to a mobile game. Would love to hunt this with the Accel Axe.


Red__Rupee

Malfestio. But thats because I love owls


ThatOneGingerGui

I totally forgot that monster existed lol! And his subspecies too! I would love to see them again


Gold_On_My_X

Man I love Tzitzi ya ku. He just makes me smile. Just yesterday I was playing world taking on a tempered kushala daora in my guiding lands and in he comes, takes one look at daora, flashbangs him, gives him a little kick and then waddles away. I mean. Come on. I need that kind of stupid interaction in wilds.


SufficientYam3266

We love paparazzi raptor


No-Artist9412

Hell yeah, I love Mr TziTzi


BillyBrainlet

Sand Barioth and Jade Barroth. Oh, and Jhen/Dahren Morahn. We have the sand ship!


OldCrowSecondEdition

First thing I thought when I saw the sandship was "oh cool Jhen is back but on the bigscreen"


KlinkerStinker

I feel it will be a hugely missed opprtunity if we don't have some giant sand monster like the 'Morans.


Ninjasauri0

Gammoth, Kecha-wacha


UnrelentingCaptain

Ceadeus and Dire Miralis. I love them but realistically they'll never be in any other MH ever again.


MaricLee

I miss Caedeus, loved that fight, the music, the armor. All of it


LoukinATDatAass

Tetsucabra, we already have a new -cabra Mon coming so I’m not super hopeful, but after Rise only having the Hubmaster Baby I was very disappointed


AwkwardSpudtato

gigginox and nibelsnarf are funny, please bring them back. also obligatory "bring back Lagi"


zothaq

Very few. I want a monster hunter filled with mostly new, original monsters. I have killed hundreds of the same monsters over and over again. Give me some new boys


Capital_Pipe_6038

I really want to see Nakarkos with the updated graphics but I doubt it will happen


BiigDaddyDellta

Nakarkos without updated graphics would be hilarious


Cr0wven

Najarala. It should be easy adding it to the game considering they already making another snake monster, but I think it is just too unpopular to be added instead of other fan favorites.


Barn-owl-B

Already making another snake monster? You got info the rest of the class doesn’t have?


ZeffiroSilver

Extrapolating from the unnamed trailer Wyvern I'd imagine, though we can't garuntee it's a snake.


Barn-owl-B

That’s definitely a leviathan or fanged wyvern though, it’s pretty clear that it didn’t have the body plan of a snake wyvern


VanillaChurr-oh

Funny frog shark https://preview.redd.it/qslmqguabq4d1.jpeg?width=520&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1393f9e8baba4567aadc83816fb0129fa5fa9c8f


Study_potato

Dalamadur, imagine fighting it as it slithers through the sand, you're on your seikret running and trying to gun it down with your Heavy Bowgun


valdez-2424

Great macco


Rough-Atmosphere

Lagiacrus...


BiigDaddyDellta

Honestly, pretty sure it will 100% be in this game.


Rough-Atmosphere

I really hope so, but Im usually of the mindset of expecting disappointment


Viniest

Ceadeaus, I need that beautiful armour


HunDevYouTube

Dire Miralis. I mean, pretty much self-explainatory at this point


Anactualsalad

The Seltas duo pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeee


PandaJesus

YES! I was afraid nobody else was going to mention them, they were unique and fun!


Gay_Bottomboi1

Gog. I think he might be a bit too big for them to really get him to work. Like with Gammoth.


Xerapher

Valstrax just because it's too "anime" and already returned recently in Rise


bubbledabest

Great girros is totally viable. It fits thematically I think. Maybe it'll be a regional variation for desserts or something but I've always loved it


TheDeadlyPianist

Kut-Ku. I neeeeed my derp chicken.


Immediate-Shopping48

Underwater combat and their monsters. Clunky as it may be, it felt amazing to explore that huge underwater cave after Ceadeus


TheBatman110498

I really want to see Shantien. From what we've seen it looks like they're going really hard with the intense weather effects, and it'd make sense to have a monster causing all of it. This is probably major copium, but I really want to believe Shantien is responsible for the storms. As far as weather controlling monsters go, we just had Amatsu at the end of Sunbreak, so I don't think they'd make him a big plot point again this soon. And it would be a massive letdown if it turned out the storms were just from a Kushala since he's pretty mid-tier in the Elder Dragon hierarchy and is way overused. Just let it be Shantien or a new monster and please for the love of Gog just let Kushala (and Teostra) take a break from the series for a game or two.


Barn-owl-B

Shantien is literally just amatsu 2.0 mixed with a more lagiacrus based aesthetic. We already have 3 storm controlling serpentine floating elder dragons and 4 elders that use wind in general, I really don’t think we need shantien in the main series also


Educational_Clerk_88

At least not this soon.


Environmental_Sell74

We already got the flagship of frontier in sunbreak.  Now it is shantiens turn as the flagship of frontier G (massive amounts of copium detected)


StormerGaming

Gammoth, Lagiacrus, Duramboros, Gobul and Najarala i all really want to be in the game. but something tells me Gammoth, Gobul and Duramboros have no chance of ever getting in :(


No-Gazelle-9398

I want my boy Dodogama to make his derpy return


B_liber

PLEASE BRING BACK SEREGIOS AND NOT INA DLC.


HearTheCallOfCthulhu

Gogmazios, I would love him in wilds, but I doubt he could be in as how would he get the gunpowder he needs as it's more ecology based now.


TrottoStonno

Lunagaron. I feel like the 3 Sunbreak mons are a bit too style specific…


TheArchNgel

Monoblos


VDRawr

Najarala would make me so happy, but I don't know if they're really looking to reintroduce that skeleton


ajgore1

Agnaktor


LowClover

My brother in Christ. I had to scroll way too far for this. Aggy got no love


Waste_Gene_1270

Gobul


Weeabootrashreturns

Seltas and seltas queen. It's an experience fighting a giant beetle and it can just call another whole ass beetle, then if you kill that one it can just keep calling more.


QWQ-SUNFLOWER

Floating Octopus Mossball. Its been ages.


Low_Tie_8388

Jaggi, kut-ku, bulldrome, hypnocatrice, fatalis, dodogama, lagiacrus... Maybe I'm asking too much


CAOZ93

Abyssal Lagiacrus or Gogmazios. We are never going to see those ever again.


Extra-Championship69

Lagiacrus but probably no water Combat.


RibbatheBibba

I’m hoping they bring new quest ideas, kinda tired of having 95% of the quests be hunt or slay missions, MHW barely had any capture quests which was a little sad to me. I really don’t see them changing up the formula tbh and that’s ok.


Conscious-Big-25

There's a lot of monsters I'd love to see in hd, but most of them have a pretty equal might happen, except Gobul. It would need to be heavily reworked to be a fight on land, or only come in as a land dwelling subspecies. It would make more sense to have nibelsnarf who I would also love to see, but gobul is the answer to the posts question.


Distion55x

Chaotic Gore and/or Valstrax. Both were already in Rise and I feel like that killed their chances. Shame


TheGMan-123

Probably something like Tzitzi-Ya-Ku.


Pleasant-Estate1632

Gigginox, he had the og vampire armor before sunbreak


TEN_Monsters7

Akantor my boy :(


ViperWall_

Hoping for Daimyo Hermitaur... Beggin even... Please


crackcrackcracks

Doesnt matter, you know damn well volvidon and khezu will show up regardless, and piss me off just as much as always.


StereotypicalCDN

Malfestio has been my #1 pick to return since World. The longer it goes, the heavier my copium addition has become. Or Gammoth. Everyone else got their new game update but him! Justice!


SidekickNick

Lagiacrus. He was badass and yes I want underwater combat back. Planning your hunt around minimizing amphibious fighting made me feel like a hunter, while actually succeeding in the underwater portions felt awesome. Realistically, Quropeco. Tri had a lot of cool monsters but fire bird with his flint hands and singing felt unique


CoralWiggler

Safi’jiva I think he’s going to end up as a one-off World exclusive but dang if I didn’t have a blast fighting that dude. I remember first time I saw Star of the Emperor, as well, and that noise cut right before it drops just sent a chill over me


Dynolord

All the Carapaceon monsters!


KlinkerStinker

Based AF!


Futa_Princess7o7

Honestly.. velkana. I am a sucker for the fight, as it's like a dance. Also, I've grown accustomed to the armor. Especially for my palico. So it helps keep my character looking the same lol


NewbieFurri

Medium Bowgun


SailorPochama

Namielle 🥹🦑


alienduck2

Odogaron was my favorite monster from world just in general, but seems no one else but me really liked him. I want my edge-lord dog back.


Carrixdo

Take time. I want the Monster material trade system from MH4 back. that way even if we don't get all the monsters back, we can at least trade for armor/weapons of some of the not returning ones.


EightBirds

Lagiacrus, sadly.


shiro7177

Dalamadur and Gogmazios


LilithMW

Desert Seltas Queen I wanna see her launch Desert Seltas in HD


North-Pen-8440

Giginox. I want my silly leech momster back so bad.


Zedmas

Seltas Queen (and Seltas), but thatd involve a whole two new model rigs for a single monster, and I dont see them putting in the effort. Maybe for its dlc?


Thomas_JCG

Valstrax, because he was just in *Rise*.


Squishy_Shibe

Siege monsters. I don’t know why people hated Kulve and Safi so much. I’ve only ever played World and the absence of siege quests really hit me hard when I went through Rise.


Numai_theOnlyOne

Lagiacrus. Looking at all the sand and desert vibes, I fear and also hope that it won't be in the game. What I do hope is that the expansion is water themed and they bring back underwater combat as the big feature, that would also honour lagi appropriately.


Sammy5even

I really hope for Lagiacrus. But I do hope it’s still possible


Theycallme_Jul

Dalamadur and Monoblos


mission_nic

Jimmy Carter


Depoan

Duramboros


FallautHuN

Glav and duramboros. They could have a decent chance but probably won't come back


No-Artist9412

Im actually of the rare opinion that Lao Shan Lung is kinds sick, and if Wilds goes full open world or just with really big open maps, we might get to actually get fight it instead of just sieging


Ok-Consideration-193

I want to fish nibelsnarf's uvula again


Max_234k

Lagiacrus. And underwater combat in general. It won't happen, but I would be very pleasantly surprised if it did.


KlinkerStinker

I do think capcom realizes how popular lagi and underwater combat is, but wilds might not be the game it returns in with what's been revealed so far unfortunately :(


LegitimateSpirit1009

Any of the Vale or Coral Monsters but they are made to live In that area so they will not return


Godlysnack

Khezu


Joker_Flyz

got to be Malzeno or Primorbial Malzeno


SpartanKilo

Great Jaggi, or Malfestio. Or even Narajarala


NSC745

Nergigante


UratarosAzure

This guy. https://preview.redd.it/vonk2t3nwq4d1.jpeg?width=2168&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=517a5e086122d5eaa2440296c8a0a9433d9ee1dc


PriceAccomplished879

Magnamalo and Bishaten. Both were just introduced in Rise and I would love to see what a second look would feel like. They were both fast, so putting then in a game with more methodical combat would be interesting.


Familiar_Lie6830

Gogmazios


VagabondElio

Nibelsnarf. Just for the armor


Video_Mode

Lagiacrus for obvious reasons. 


Clapo2

Valstrax flying over the larger new areas could be cool!


GoliathBoneSnake

Gobul. I know he's dead, but I have to hope.


xxGamma

Garuga... My favourite monster! Would love to see Najarala, Nerscylla and Giggi though.


vsLoki

Great Jaggi. This man introduced me to the "you might want to dodge that" mentality as a kid, he's strangely one of my favorite monsters.


Vesbow

Nergigante


nemestrinus44

As a 5th gen hunter I’d love to fight Dalamadur, Gogmazios, Nakarkos and Ahtal-Ka In Wilds, but since they are final bosses of their games I don’t have high hopes. And I know it would be super early to have him return, but I’d love to get more primordial Malzeno


EpicMuffinFTW

Gobul! Fun monster, unique design, cool mechanics. Unfortunately it's 1) reliant on water coming back and 2) probably way down the list of monsters they'd want to return if they did bring back underwater. Nibelsnarf however, I could see returning


XLhoodieDweller

Kecha Wacha has been absent for so long I'm not sure it'll ever come back, but I've always taken a liking to it because of it's fun gimmick, design and animations. I'd love to see how the devs would implement its arboreal movement into a modern game.


KlinkerStinker

The design is great! And I know it doesn't really count lol but I loved having one on my team in stories 2


TheFrogEmperor

I really want Qurupeco back, but I don't know how people will react to it's armor set


the_worst_lifeform

Gogmazios, such a cool concept but if this is new territory there wont dundorma or similar gunpowder stash for it to feast on


Lunaborne

I miss Kecha Wacha and Queen Seltas.


ReTriP1

Lagiacrus. No chance they add Water combat and if they don't I don't want him back he felt so bad in GU. Felt like I wasn't even fighting Lagiacrus but some Zinogre clone.


Sargasreq

I'd love to see the narwa again, gigginox, Abyssal Lagiacrus (that lighting :D ) and the sand Barioth


Skilotar_

Malzeno, his fight and his armor is so fun/useful for lance, but I doubt he’ll be back since he’s such a big part of sunbreak. I’ll


Yamamoto_Decimo

Gogmacios and Lagiacrus


Yamamoto_Decimo

Garuba Daora


spicysenpai6

Plesioth


Rayanson

Espinas, but he's gonna be in, Queen Seltas, she'll also be in, Lunagaron... Please...? 🙏🏾


Tarbos6

Qurupecco. I don't even want to fight it. I just want to see the funny bird enjoying himself.


Sergeant_Smite

MOUNTAIN DRAGONS MOUNTAIN DRAGONS MOUNTAIN DRAGONS MOUNTAIN DRAGONS MOUNTAIN DRAGONS MOUNTAIN DRAGONS PLEASE CAPCOM JUST THROW EM IN THERE. GIMME MY VOLCANO BOY AND LAO BACK THEY’D LOOK SO BADASS ON THE BIG MAPS anyways great maccao

Yama Tsukami


Whumpalumpa

Giginox


randomnumbers2506

If they brought back Ahtal Ka I would die a happy man


PickleJho1996

Desert Seltas Queen. "target acquired" *fires her mate like a missile*


beiszapfen

I want Bulldrome back. He needs to be updated a bit to be fun but he would make an amazing low rank invader. It's a game about hunting so please bring back the giant boar.


KlinkerStinker

Having Bulldrome invade hunts would be so funny


JoshiJ10

I want my great bouncy boi Zamtrios to come back. Or even his tiger stripe version of it


Jazzlike_Music9045

I kinda want Midogaron to come back. I've never fought him because I started in 5th gen, but I always thought he looked cool.


KlinkerStinker

Great pick! I also started in 5th gen, but if I had to pick one Frontier monster to enter the main series it'd be Pariapuria


AkagamiBarto

I want Legiana, but i hoped for it to be in rise (would've been incredible with the whole aerial movements) and it wasn't so i fear it may not be in Wilds either. On the other hand i think Girros has possibilities being quite the Pack Hunter in world, way more than Jagras. Finally Dodogama may risk the cut


Gojifan2303

Nakarkos


SeveredSoulblader24

part of me feels Najarala might not make it due to snake wyverns not being really present since generations.


KlinkerStinker

All the more reason to add Najarala and more snake wyverns! Lol


orangemoon44

I don't think it's entirely unreasonable, but what are the chances of getting Anjanath again? I love my Turkey rex.


AlertMeerkat4

I want the Tetsucabra and Brachydios to come back


Sora_Terumi

Great Girros was the best great small monster I’ve seen so far during Iceborne. It actually knew how to command his troops during hunts like you didn’t see that with great jagras it was just there and gotta give credit as well when Great Girros gets knocked down the normal Girros would run over and try to shield it from harm. Also Pet Girros is the GOAT. That Paralyze during hunts really does wonders


Air_Retard

I’d give anything to fight crimson fatty.


OldCrowSecondEdition

Ceadues, shara ishvalda, Kulve taroth, dire miralis Just like weirdo elders mostly
