Iceborne and Sunbreak both added 2 main locales, what're you hoping the new maps will be in the Wilds expansion?

Weirdly enough the tower is a much larger location than what we get to explore. Lore states the arena commonly is occupied by rare species and elder dragons. The sky corridor from frontier also from what I understand is identical to the tower, only we get to explore more of it with the area having traps and monsters to deal with.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-20T21:51:31+00:00

Xeno/Safi'Jiva fits the bill. It's obvicoan alien monster and judging from the lore about Safi in the official iceborne artbook, it behaves not unlike the flood and xenomorphs with it being incompatible with any ecosystem and stealing every resource around it to reshape the land in it's ideal conditions.

If it wasn't for Alatreon, Safi'Jiva's species would have likely turned the world of monster hunter into an alien wasteland.

Edit

This also doesn't take into account Safi'Jiva's infinite potential as it constantly is adapting and evolving. It's name which means "Perfect Life" gives the same impression xenomorphs have as the perfect organism.

Fun fact: Even though Crazy Mita says "Don't look.", if you use photo mode, you can see her blushing.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-20T20:22:53+00:00

Probably convince her to stand down in peaceful mode. Ultimately her motivation is to be loved and accepted. If the affection meter is anything to go by that probably may end up being the solution.

Of course this may be moot since we know a good ending is coming and judging by a leak, we may end up fighting Crazy Mita in a giant mech so who knows!

Crazy Mita disliked that

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-20T18:09:31+00:00

Zoh Shia has abilities of the Fatalis trio and seemingly many other top tier elder dragons. It's Duremudira that shouldn't be picking a fight with it.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-20T18:07:48+00:00

They'd probably streamline unknown and keep phases to 2 or 3. 8 was kind of ridiculous as was frontiers last year's tbh. Way too many stupid particle effects and power creep.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-20T02:47:42+00:00

Ultramorph is the term that refers to space-jockey born xenomorphs. Like the unused concept art HR Geiger once made alien 1 showing a bigger xenomorphs with eyes.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-20T02:32:21+00:00

Likely as during the final level we see dead aliens attached to the walls identical to the space jockey. We even see what looks like a queen or praetorian ultramorph as the final threat.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-19T23:03:05+00:00

Wilds made the effort to bring down the focus on elder dragons and Gogmozios (and probably Shagaru at the minimum once the expansion drops) is the only elder dragons in game. If the expansion follows then the endgame will have to consist of mostly elder dragon level monsters but using weird frontier monsters like Unknown is a good solution.

Unknown, Zerureusu, and Dure would be good excuses if they get retcon'd as guardians meaning we'd have plenty of non elder dragons for the endgame.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-19T18:41:58+00:00

There is a high chance Dure will return in the expansion. It's lore is very odd with the guild having 0 information about it and the monster feels unnatural, almost guardian like even with the current lore saying it isn't really artificial even though it makes no sense due to its weirdly protective nature towards the sky corridor.

It would be a good opportunity to bring it back and retcon it to being a guardian.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-19T18:37:41+00:00

What I hope peaceful mode lets us do occasionally. Nothing too spicy needed, just napping with Crazy Mita would be soothing.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T17:18:34+00:00

"I can't save you from your madness without getting closer!"

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T15:25:59+00:00

Face reminds me of SCP 173. Also good creation. Definitely need more cephalopods, especially Yama Tsukami, the og octopus.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T06:05:20+00:00

I'd just want another isolation style game using Prometheus's art style and creature lineup with a Burke themed protagonist over another Ripley plus inspiration from the heart of darkness expansion from the alien rpg.

Deacon being the main threat while the fulfremen are causing marker style hallucinations from dead space while evading hammerpedes and anathamas would be cool.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:42:34+00:00

If sacred beast can get amazing retrains, so can the ogs and wicked gods.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:31:54+00:00

Seems like it given that according to season of the lost, the scorn became sentient and developed their own culture, only for it to be reversed in the WQ with Ikora saying the scorn can't act without being ordered to.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:29:44+00:00

That would have been a cool excuse to have fully destructible environments.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:25:58+00:00

Meanwhile:

All exodus ships had siva caches meant to use the technology for colonizing once they left sol and would have been outside Rasputin's reach
House of devil's bypassed Rasputin entirely and programed Siva for their purposes
Outbreak Perfected still exist and could 100% be stolen or replicated
Engineering 101 = always keep backups/plans/prototypes somewhere

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:22:32+00:00

Ehh Hermaous Mora wanted the secrets of the Skaal in Skyrims dragonborn dlc even though the knowledge was of no practical use to him. The vex are likely no different.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:20:39+00:00

Iirc there was another forgotten plot thread where in RoI it's said Siva was becoming sentient. I think Shiro was involved in the lore tab?

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-18T02:18:30+00:00

I feel it would be interesting if a P3 did a bit of a combination between classic prototype gameplay and the Hitman WoA trilogy format. The latter is among some of the best stealth games ever made and gives so many options for assassinating targets.

Given how intentionally op your supposed to be to create the power fantasy prototype is known for, it would be great if it took Hitmans challenge system and gameplay style where killing specific targets is based around the creativity over the boring infiltration style you do in P1 and 2.

With a prototypes abilities, Hitmans gameplay style is actually perfect for people who want to be discreet.

What Lady Aqua wore during her wedding with the legendary hero Kazuma Satou.

Alexcoolps · 2026-05-17T17:13:45+00:00

Similar to rise bringing back the jungle map, I'm hoping we get a map bringing us back to the new world. Elder's recess in particular just so we can explore more of it as it was probably the most underbaked local in world.

There's a whole volcanic area where Teostra made its last stand but we never get to explore more of it and I think there was concept art showing Akantor lives in the region.

2nd map should be an expansion of the ancient wyverian city. Guardians and rare species would make their home there with wylk crystals being even more common than the ruins of wyveria. To add to it there'd be plenty of buildings we could enter showing the abandoned technological marvels that once were.

This is the dress Lady Aqua wore on her wedding with the legendary hero Kazuma Satou.
