Monster Hunter Wilds Handler and Smithy Characters Revealed

Capcom revealed profiles for some of the upcoming Monster Hunter Wilds characters. In particular, Alma the handler and Gemma the smithy were introduced.

Alma is basically the Guild Receptionist character for Monster Hunter Wilds. So she’s the equivalent of Handler in Monster Hunter: World or Chichae in Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak. As noted in the social media reveal, she won’t just remain at the hub. She’ll actually join you when you adventure.

Here’s the official announcement going over Alma and showing her art:

As for Gemma, she won’t be heading out on adventures. She is our Research Commission Smithy blacksmith. Players will need to bring monster parts to her to craft and upgrade equipment.

Here’s her official reveal:

In addition to these two Monster Hunter Wilds profiles for characters, Capcom recently shared a peek at this installment’s Felyne model. It showed the cat-like character all dressed up, wielding a hammer and fishing pole, and ready to travel.

We got a better look at Monster Hunter Wilds recently. The first gameplay trailer appeared at the May 2024 State of Play.

Monster Hunter Wilds will come to the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam in 2025.
